If you google or look on Pinterest I am sure you could find it. Anyway it was a great starting off point for some yummy combinations that my LO loved, plus the way she listed it all out it was so easy! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/easiest-baby-food-to-make-in-bulk#post-1656682 Sat, 24 May 2014 19:12:42 +0000 lady grey 1656682@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Pears (I don't peel since its organic, just chop, simmer in water til soft, blend)<br /> Prunes (soak dried prunes in hot water, then blend)<br /> Spinach (steam then blend. I like to mix with peas)<br /> I have also purchased canned organic pumpkin and butternut squash puree (in baking section) and frozen in ice cube trays fro later use. </p> <p>@Grace: my LO loves hummus, so I should try just doing the chickpeas </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/easiest-baby-food-to-make-in-bulk#post-1656543 Sat, 24 May 2014 15:59:59 +0000 skipra 1656543@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If i wanted to make something quick and easy i used frozen veggies. DS loved corn and green bean purees. Frozen berries like a mix of blueberries and cranberries were always a hit. Also those refrigerator packs of pre cooked beets were easy to puree. Ds also tolerated mushy red lentils. You have to cook but not really puree them. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/easiest-baby-food-to-make-in-bulk#post-1656494 Sat, 24 May 2014 14:53:33 +0000 Grace 1656494@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Chickpeas? Use canned stuff, rinse it off and just whir them in the food processor. Probably have to add a bit of water to thin it out. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/easiest-baby-food-to-make-in-bulk#post-1656487 Sat, 24 May 2014 14:44:30 +0000 deerylou 1656487@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When we were still incorporating purees, LO really loved this combo:</p> <p>Tofu<br /> Fresh Broccoli (you can zap it in the microwave a bit, if you want to avoid steaming)<br /> A dollop of apricot or peach preserves </p> <p>This was one of the easiest purees to prepare, and really just involved our food processor. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/easiest-baby-food-to-make-in-bulk#post-1656465 Sat, 24 May 2014 14:08:05 +0000 daniellemybelle 1656465@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have made large batches of sweet potato &amp; peas &amp; frozen them, and we feed LO fresh fruit like bananas, cantaloupe, avocado, etc. Other foods we use organic jars. My freezer stash is dwindling though so I'd like to make some more, but a lot of things sound like too much work. I don't want to do a lot of peeling/chopping/steaming/etc. What did you find the simplest to make? </p>
