[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My nanny, whom we love, is insisting on my homemade baby food for my child. She said it's healthiest, cost effective, and easy. I don't know because the baby cookers ( she said use a blender), steamers, storage, etc., adds up. If you tried it, is it really that cost effective compared to the organic jars and pouches? [/quote] I don't think it's cheaper - especially the fruits or veg (takes too many to make even 4 one ounce ice cubes - but I plus nanny made all sorts of purees. I focused on chicken, chuck roast and tilapia ones since the canned stuff is always lik 90% tomatoes or carrot base. Weelicious has good puree recipes. I'd make a batch, put into 50 ice cubes, then freezer bag it and each meal was 4-6 or I added half jar + half my purees depending on the consistency. Nanny should have plenty of time to make it during naps. Ours also does apples + quinoa. Or we just puree leftovers for the 1 yo. kids only eat purees for like 9-12 months so enjoy and don't sweat it![/quote]
