hi there,


Fruit Purees such as:


Apples, Pears,Peach etc. Thinly peel with peeler, cut thin slices, add 1/4(quarter) cup of water than cook.


microwave at full power for 5 minutes or more until cooked or bring the pot to boil then simmer untill cooked. cool then puree, adding enough boiled water to make it thin%26amp;smooth.


taste and if it's too sour try mixing with a little baby rice, extra water or a little breast/fomula milk before serving.





Vegetable Purees such:


butternut pumpkin , sweet potato, carrot etc which you can always mix two together. always add lots of liquid to get a smooth cream. introduce your baby to different tastes and he/she will let you if she likes it or not.


i hope this helps and enjoyBaby food recipes??
yeah at five months you dont have to mix together ingredients if you dont want. i just steamed bulk lots of plain veggies (steaming is the best way coz it keeps the most nutrition in), mashed em and froze em in an ice cube tray. I always found pumpkin to be a fave. Also pumpkin and zucchini mashed together, but not zuccini on its own. If you think its still a bit too thick for him add some breast milk, formula or cooled boiled water. And when he is a bit older, try some avocado mixed in with some yoghurt, mine loved it, and its nice and easy to make!
i used to just buy presh veggies like potato, pumkin, broccoli etc. boil it or stem it and mash it with a fork, and you can add finely chopped meat just cut it into very small pieces with a sharp knife. i never blened any of my kids food they enjoyed it that little bit thicker.
I would seriously recommend Annabel Karmel's Baby and Toddler cook book. I used this for my daughter and it is brilliant and has a huge variety of receipes in.
Just throw fully cooked fork-tender fruits or veggies into the blender until it is completely smooth. There should be no chunks at 5 months. If it looks like it needs liquid, you can use breastmilk or water or baby juice.
my son loves corn beef ash ,he's 9 months old so i dint blend it but it will be fine blended up ,plus it will have meat ,veg, and potatoes in it .


you could try any type of casserole .and stews.good luck
At 5 months just make him purees of veg or fruit maybe mixed in to some baby rice, just try one at a time gradually introducing a new food! As he gets older you can add blended meat with slightly more lumps each time.
I just found out theres some great books on basic cooking for bubs. Try your bookshop or library if you prefer to hire. You child health nurse should also be of some help.
Im not sure but i have to use the opportunity to say your baby is sooo beautiful awww!

Just use your head


Steam or boil veggies and puree them -


puree fruits


stick with that sort of stuff at 5 months
I do what charlene e does but I add a dribble of made up formula in it to give it a creamy texture
It sounds strange but when my son was that age he loved potato %26amp; apple mashed together :)
my babys always loved mashed brocolli and avacados,and would eat any veg in mash potatoes,have fun :)
