Homemade Baby Food

Why? Why not!
Ok, why really? I'll let you in on my reasoning!
1) Quality control- when you make your own baby food, you have total control over what is added to the food! You know that it is free of additives that their tiny tummies do not need!
2) Best ingredients- you choose the fruit/ vegetables to use. Only the ripest and farm fresh for your little one!
  3) Textures- when making your own foods you can blend until they are as smooth or thin as your baby likes.
4) Healthy eating habits- helping your baby learn to like the taste of non-processed foods.
5)More tastes- you are not limited to the selection at the store. You are free to process any fruit or vegetable ( age appropriate) for your little one!
6)Super savings!
(O.K. , I did my research can you tell?)
And plus,it was really very simple!

For bananas (which is the only fruit we have given Harrison so far) all I did was:
1) peal and cut the banana into small chunks

2) Place them in the food processor


3) Chop away
this is what you will get

4) Scoop into ice cube tray

5) cover with plastic wrap and freeze for future use!
When it't time to eat, all you do is thaw one or two cubes and serve!
How simple!
I am very excited to continue making all of Harrison's foods and can not wait to have some farm fresh produce this summer!
