Just before Thanksgiving, Evalie's doctor suggested I start her on solids and so I thought this might be a great chance to get her used to others ways of getting nutrients besides her preferred method..which is...ME. Since I had already bought quite a few acorn squash for the holiday dinner, we started her with that. I had was steaming them in the oven so I just scooped one out for Evalie before I glazed the rest. Just as I was about to begin manually mushing it, I remembered I been given this Beaba Babycook as a shower gift. so I took it out and tried it! i loved it, in seconds I had perfectly mushed baby food!
Now we're onto food number two ,carrots and I figured I should take advantage of all its capabilities so I steamed a few carrots in its cooking basket and then once it was done, poured the carrots right into the blending basket and immediately was able to puree them into this wonderfully fresh, smooth, bright orange baby food. It requires nothing else just a bit of water for a steaming. So I'm in love with it and am very excited to make more food. Apparently, you can make chicken, rice and more in it too...can't wait to make her something crazy like curry chicken in there..just kidding. Anyway, this may not be new to anyone but I remember trying this with a different food mill when Arielle was born and gave up very quickly because it was cumber some.
Now, I take the pureed vegetable and put equal amounts in little baby storage cube and pop them in the fridge for dinner each night. tonight I'll be making sweet potatoes.
I am not being paid for this post..maybe I should be but I just really like the item!
