I never thought I’d be the girl that made her Own Baby Food. Who ARE those people anyway? I have my organic friends that make fun of me for eating “conventional vegetables” (heaven forbid!) and I could pretty much suffice on macaroni and cheese everyday and be just fine. But something about sweet little Jackson and his perfect body, not yet contaminated with cheese and chocolate, makes me want to strive for that purity as long as possible. Maybe it’s just the smell of those nasty baby food jars, or maybe I think I’ll win some award for being the Queen of Puree or something, but I decided to go all out and make Jackson’s food from — you guessed it, SCRATCH.
I documented my first attempt with some sweet potatoes. I have now been making his food for over 2 months and still LOVE it.
1. Slice and Dice.
2. Steam.
3. Puree.
4. Put into little ice cube trays — perfect 2 oz portions.
5. Success! (Freeze)

No, this is not a product plug for the fabulous invention called the Beaba. I simply didn’t own a food processor of any sort (gasp!) so the fact that this could steam and puree in one little all in one device sounded like the best option for me. Easy, peasy, right??
And what did Jax think?
