#1. Baby needs to eat
#2. Fresh foods are the best.
#3. He better like how it tastes.
I started Blake off with single grain rice cereal and then started adding in a little natural applesauce and banana for flavor. Once he was good at opening his mouth and swallowing I started trying a few new foods. I had some good coupons for baby food and picked out a few that I thought even I would like.
One of the ones I tried was Gerber Organic carrots, apples, and mangoes. Blake loved it so I decided to make my own.
I cut up 2 mangoes, 3 apples, and 6 carrots.
I steamed the fruit and veggies and pureed them in the blender. While blending I added water as needed to get a good consistency.
Some more food combinations that are on my to do list are apple, spinach, blueberry and banana berry - combination ideas from Gerber.
