Making Homemade Baby Food

Every parent wants to ensure their child gets the best of everything, to the best of their ability. A parent nourishes their child 5 times a day, and what better food to give them other than homemade food? Whether you use store bought fruits and vegetables or produce grown at home, homemade baby food is the best way to make sure your child is getting the vitamins and nutrients they need to grow.

Growing your own fruits and vegetables is without a doubt the best way to ensure your produce is fresh and free of chemicals. If this isn’t an available option for you, buying your produce from the grocery store is always a valid choice as well. If you do opt for buying your fruits and vegetables, always lean towards buying organic. Keep in mind you are buying this for your little one and you don’t want them digesting chemicals or toxins that some produce contain.

Making baby food is extremely simple. All that is required is a good cutting board and either a blender or a food processor, any kitchen tool that will liquify a solid food. Always remember before making baby food that the tools you use were cleaned properly to avoid cross contamination, in case your child has any unknown allergies.

Great baby food recipes would include:

• Banana, Apricot and Cinnamon
• Baked Sweet Potato
• Blueberry and Beet
• Spinach and White Yams
• Cherry and Mint Greek Yogurt

Making your own homemade baby food is extremely beneficial in more ways than one. Not only is it super healthy for your baby and you know where the produce is coming from, but it can also be a lot less expensive than buying pre-made, store-bought baby food that you can sometimes be very unsure of.
