Making your own baby food...it's easy and yummy

Ok so the title kinda sounds like making baby food for yourself, no, it's for your baby!

So it's super easy. Heres what you'll need: Food Processor, Filtered or bottled water, Ice Cube trays and any veggie you want to feed your child (just consult your pediatrician on which one's are ok)

Peel veggie if needed, cook it (I boil mine), stick it in your food processor with some water and chop it til it's nice and baby foodish looking.

Then poor it into ice cube trays, cover with a ziplock bag, and stick it in the freezer! Pop a cube or two out for each meal as needed and microwave to melt. Now some of my friends don't like microwaving anything so for you guys you'll have to melt it over the stove...

So that's it! I love it because it is really easy, super cheap (1 sweet potatoe fills a whole icecube tray and they are what, like 77 cents/lb) , and really healthy for your baby. They will grow to love veggie's more than you can believe!

For a little time you will be amazed at how much money you will save and how happy your baby will be because the taste is unbeatable!

Tip: purchase ice cube trays that are nice and flexi to pop the food cubes out with ease!
