At first I was pretty intimidated at the thought of making baby food, but with the help of a friend (thanks, Kendra!) and this website I realized how easy (time-consuming, but easy) it really is. Aside from easy, it is so much more affordable than buying baby food! We still buy some baby foods (like peaches since they are out of season right now etc) but for the most part we/I try to make Asher’s food. Today I spent time making squash, pears, and sweet potatoes…
Bake for 40 mins at 450 in about 1-2 inches of water
Scoop out the “meat” and puree
Voila! Baby Food!
I LOVE seeing all my ice cube trays of baby food in the freezer! Tomorrow I’ll transfer them over to a ziplock and we’ll be set for squash for a while! :)
Oh…
and the verdict on squash? Asher seemed to like it! (He must not take after me, squash used to make me gag when I was growing up.)
good job mama. i'm gonna do the same thing!
