Vegetable Medley

Vegetables tend to be a little less appetizing as a first food for babies as opposed to fruit, which most babies enjoy the sweet taste. So I figured why not just mix some of the "yucky" vegetable with the sweet ones. 

On the main page of this blog are 3 recipes, Green Pea Puree, Roasted Carrot Puree and Roasted Corn Puree. 

I simply mix together:

2 tbsp of Green Pea Puree

1 tbsp of Roasted Corn Puree

1 tbsp of Roasted Carrot Puree 

However if you are not able to create these 3 different purees or simply don't have the time then not all hope is lost! if using either fresh ingredients or frozen:

2 tbsp of thawed peas

2 tbsp of thawed corn 

1 tbsp of thawed carrots

Cook in a small pot for 4-5 min with a scant amount of water and 1/4/ tsp of salt if desired, for added flavor. (optional)

Blend together all 3 vegetables in whatever you like to make your baby food in (Baby Bullet, blender, food processor, etc.) Add cooking liquid if needed for a smoother consistency. 

Then strain through a mesh strainer, for the corn hulls are hard for baby to digest before 6 months of age.

Store in airtight container in refrigerator for 3-4 days or in the freezer for 3 weeks.
