Introducing Solids


I remember having a great time introducing foods and making all my own purees....i loved a book from the library i got called "Baby Blender Food" by Nicole Young.  An online site I'd often find myself referring to was wholesomebabyfoods .

I used "the magic bullet"....loved it for the purpose of making baby foods.  Do a batch of your puree, pour into ice trays and, once frozen, dump all the puree cubes into freezer bags.  So nice to spend a bit of time filling your freezer and then you are set for several days (or weeks) without having to prepare anything new.  I still do this to some extent for my 2-year olds - portion sizes just got bigger and stopped blending.

As for "the magic bullet", loved that it was small and portable.  There were a couple of times we went to grandma's or did a timeshare, and i brought "the bullet" with us.  There are other similar blenders out there too.  The annoying part was that the blender came with all these cups that i knew I'd never use.
