Beet, Apple, Kiwi Puree
Introducing my daughter to solid foods was one of the most exciting parts about motherhood for me. I had looked forward to experiencing her reactions to new flavors and textures. Watching her mind work processing the new taste and automatically knowing to swallow was both entertaining and amazing to me.
Apples were one of the first foods I had her try and it was a success. She did great with beets too. She didn’t do as well with kiwis which is why I decided to include it in this combo. It helped get her more familiar with the taste of kiwi and eventually came around to loving it. It’s now one if her favorite fruits!
This Beet, Apple, Kiwi puree is packed with vitamin c, potassium antioxidants and fiber. It’s great to strengthen your baby’s immune system and facilitates digestion. Overall it has a pretty sweet flavor and a very soft texture. It’s great for babies who are new to solid foods.
