Organic Baby Food ~ Puréed Sweet Potatoes
You can use sweet potatoes or yams for this recipe. At 4-6 months our baby will enjoy pureed foods. I made all of Madie’s food myself. I just felt better about knowing what she was getting. You can give this to on its own or blend with a few other pureed foods such as carrots, green beans, pears, banana, and a little oatmeal cereal. Freeze some so you don’t have to make this again in a few weeks.

Instructions
  1. Rinse your potatoes and dice them into small cubes.
  2. Start a pot of boiling water and add your cubed potatoes.
  3. If you stick a fork into the potato and it feels very soft, then they are ready to be drained and mashed.
  4. Use a hand mixer or potato masher to mash the potatoes until smooth.
  5. At each serving, you can add in your breast milk to give it more nutrients and make it creamier or water with formula if you don’t have breast milk.
  6. Use a baby spoon and feed your baby the ounces your doctors recommend.
  7. Yummy!
  8. Puréed yams
  9. Mixing your veggies and fruits. Change it up! I have never bought Gerber or any pre-made baby foods but I would get ideas by looking at the blends in the baby food aisle at the grocery store.
