Dee-licious!

Since today was a snow day...and it had been over a week since Brayden had been suffering through his cereal we decided to whip him up some carrots! Mike and I had pretty much decided since before Brayden came along that it would be nice to make our own baby food...just call us Chef Boy-R-Dee's!! Perhaps our brand should be called...Deelicious! Hmmm...that has a nice ring to it. Well after reading about how, what and when to prepare his food...today seemed like the perfect day. We had some organic carrots in the refrigerator and decided this would make a great first food. We plan to use organic and stay away from processed foods. As I mentioned I did a bit of research and came across this great gadget. It is designed to perfectly steam, separate out the liquid and puree the baby food in about 15 minutes. So here it goes...

It turned out great...we actually happened to have some jarred carrots in the pantry (I saved for this purpose) that someone gave us...and yes we compared...they seemed a bit brown and tasted like...well jarred food. These carrots however tasted great...so fresh and sweet.

Brayden definitly likes them...he was so unsure of the texture but definitly kept opening wide for more...We are so happy to give him this gift!
