Homemade Baby Food

I'm sure others are much more experienced in the area of making your own baby food, but I thought I'd post about it. I ordered my food chopper and it came in yesterday.

I like it and it is very easy to assemble. So, I steamed some carrots, which took a lot longer than I would have expected. A 1lb bag of carrots made about 10 oz of pureed carrots. Then I added a little to Adeline's rice cereal and they were a huge hit. I even tasted the carrots and was pretty impressed. They get very sweet. I spooned the rest into an ice cube tray with a slide lid. It was much cheaper than the special "baby food storage systems."

The cubes popped out very easily and here in a bit we'll see how nicely they defrost. I say hooray for easy homemade baby food. I think I may share some with a friend. I'll get my camera charged and some pics up soon.
