Making your own baby food is REALLY easy, simple and cheap. It beats spending money on commercial processed baby foods that can be expensive and limited in nutrients. Two pears pureed like this is enough to last Blake a week (he usually has one serve of fruit per day) at a cost of less than $1.
Catherine McCord has just released a new video over at weelicious.com, offering some introductory tips on how to start feeding food to your baby. The video covers topics such as what food to start with, how to blend the food until it’s smooth enough, and what to do with baby rice. There’s also a bit about getting babies used to cutlery – it’s never too early to get your little one familiar with the feel of a spoon.
All in all, a pretty useful video. Check it out here.
If you like what you see with the puree demonstration, then visit our baby food grinder comparison page to get some great info on available grinders.
It was honestly a tough choice trying to decide which fruit or vegetable we would choose for Chloe’s first food. Butternut squash is in season and all over the farmer’s market, so that’s what we chose. This video is the first bite she ever took, so it’s extra special that we captured it! Butternut squash puree is delicious, highly nutritious and perfect for a babies first bite of food.
Making your own baby food is easier than it sounds—and it’ll save you money, too.
We thought she’d be overjoyed with some new food…this might take a while to get used to! This is Noel’s very first try of any solid food…these are carrots I boiled and mashed up with a Baby Food Mill.
