Featured Recipe: Bananaberry Power Puree
For babies 6 months and older
Because blueberries have amazing antioxidant power, try to incorporate them into your purees as much as you can. If your blueberries are a little too tart, make sure your banana is super ripe to balance things out. Coupled with yogurt's calcium, protein, phosphorus, and probiotics, this power puree is a perfectly sweet way to give your baby superfoods.
Yield 4-5 servings
- 1/4 cup frozen organic blueberries
- 1 small, ripe organic banana (with lots of brown spots)
- 4 ounces whole fat plain or vanilla-flavored organic yogurt for babies
Blend blueberries and banana. Puree until smooth. Swirl together puree and yogurt with a spoon. Serve immediately. Refrigerate any leftovers for up to 3 days. Featured Photos in 201 Organic Baby Purees

I really enjoy this book; the author really makes a point to show you that it doesn't have to be difficult to make your own baby food. Instead she explains that it is a rewarding experience that allows parents to make healthy nutritious food for their babies and toddlers. This book gives you the knowledge that you need to make creative foods with textures and good tastes instead of limiting your child to mass produced baby food. The first few chapters talk about why it is important to feed your child organic food, how to do so affordably, what tools you will need, and more information about healthy foods. Chapter four shows readers how to introduce pureed foods for the six to seventh month old with food recipes such as blushing bananas, simply sweet potato, and pumpkin patch puree. Chapter five introduces semi-smooth pureed food such as mashed potatoes, pumpkin crème pie (pumpkin, cream fraise, and graham crackers, yum), and quinoa. Chapter six is for babies about 10 to 12 months and introduces them to food with a chunky consistency such as black beans, citrus, strawberries, and rice cakes. The last chapter, introduces new flavors and textures for children 12 months and older. The recipes in this chapter sound delicious and include things such as sweet potato fries, blueberry pancakes, breakfast pizza, and more. I really like that this book gives step by step instructions. Each recipe tells you if it is freezer friendly, if it is instant (not needing cooked), if it contains any super-foods, and if it can be slightly adapted for the rest of the family. I also like the meal plans that the book suggests. They make it easy to plan a variety of meals for your little one.
