What appliance do you use to make small amts of baby food?

Thanks for all the responses. My freezer is packed with a million bags of breastmilk. There's barely enough room to put any food for me and my husband! After I'm done BFing, obviously I'll have more room but for now just looking to puree whatever we are eating for dinner. In the meantime, I will try either the mini processor or a hand-held. Thanks again!

I bought the Beabo from William-Sonoma -- best purchase I have EVER made. It allows you to steam food in about half the time of other methods (15 minutes to cook sweet potatoes!) and then puree in the same container (it also has a re-heat function that I never use). I also bought "baby cubes" from One Step Ahead which are little 2 oz plastic containers that I can freeze the extras in in perfect portion sizes. One sweet potato (average size) makes about 8 portions and I'm set for more than a week. You can cook fruits, veggies, and meats. It's AWESOME!!!

We have a mini Cuisinart. Does the trick for us.

My sister used a coffee bean grinder (which is about the same size as the Cuisinart) and that worked for her too.
