MOVE OVER GERBER!

I made my first batch of baby food today and it went pretty well. I started really easy with sweet potatoes and butternut squash. With the way our little man eats, this will be gone in no time!!

What baby food recipes have you made and like?

Way to go, Jessica! Jack loved a green bean and pea puree. I would make a big batch of it and then freeze it (just watch out for the green bean strings). His hands down favorite, though, was mashed up avocado.

Awesome Jessica!
Ethan loved pureed corn, peas, squash, green beans, and carrots. You really can save a TON of money doing it that way!

Theo was a big fan of avocado and black beans. Mainly because I am a big fan and so I gave him a lot of those! Avocado is easy because you don't have to cook it and if it's ripe you barely even have to mash it.

Also a huge fan of bananas.

Also I like the sites wholesomebabyfood.com and babyledweaning.com. Yay for baby food!

I never mastered the homemade baby food, although I had every attempt to do it. i still have some unopened ice trays in my cupboard!! way to go. i'm very impressed. and i'm not surprised you chose squash. sterling sr. likes himself a good squash! enough even to climb into our window when we aren't home to grab salt and pepper! remember that?
