Homemade baby food is a simple art with the added benefit of saving money. Along with completely ensuring those healthy foods enter your baby’s system. Through my research I identified my desire to feed my babies wholesome organic baby food. The prices of the small jars of branded natural baby foods scared me off... so I started the adventure toward making my own.
First I bought some fancy equipment like a small baby food chopper and bags for
straining; but quickly discovered this was all completely unnecessary. All one needs
to make homemade baby food are three key things… a pot, a blender and ice cube
trays. When your baby is young and eating only simple individual foods begin by
cooking in batches. Use peas as an example. Boil them in the smallest amount of
water possible, ensuring that the water used intermingles into the food preserving
any vitamins lost during the cooking process. Once cooked to the softest
consistency, deposit the peas and water directly into the blender. Make a large
batch to save you time down the road. Whirl the blender until the peas turn to
complete mush. Then pour the mixture directly into an empty ice cube tray and
place into the freezer. This will provide you with individual servings to remove and
reheat later. Once the pea cubes are frozen solid, disconnect from the tray and
place the individual frozen blocks into a zip lock bag. Mark on the outside of the
bag what veggies are inside and the date you cooked them. Once you get going…
you will find out quick it can be hard to decipher between peas, broccoli or any
other green thing you might create. Frozen food should be consumed between 3-6
months after prepared, so the date will keep you on target.
Food Chopper
As your baby diet becomes more adventuresome, simply set aside a portion of the
dinners you normally prepare and create the same procedure. Blending and
freezing, thus furnishing you options for lunches and dinners a different day.
Through this method I created a complete baby food meal in a cube, including
meat, rice and veggie mixed together. Simply remove the ingredients before adding
the spices and seasonings the rest of the family requires. Therefore exposing a baby
to foods the family currently enjoys and saving money in the process.
Homemade baby foods create the satisfaction of understanding the nutrition that
your baby consumes, along with the money savings built-in.
As parents we are always in need of support and guidance every once in awhile and
for many that translates into everyday. Where is the best place to look for parenting
advice? How does one gather parenting tips at those times of need? While many
books and magazines cover a range of information, the best advice always comes
from the most immediate source, other parents. The Mom Connection is designed
to be one of your gathering places, as you
should never stop after one piece of advice. As parents we know each child is an
individual and each situation is unique. The only true way to find good parenting
advice is to gather as many tips as possible, then use this information to form your
own perspective.
