I will need to pass this recipe on to some of my friends who have babies!!!
Thank you so much Sara!
Can’t say I’ve ever had a turnip, but I have had parsnip fries and those are delicious. Sadly my little one is no longer interested in pureed foods but I do have lots of friends who have brand new little ones so I’ll be glad to pass along this recipe.
That’s funny I have a recipe for garlic Parmesan parnisp fries on here too under Finger Foods! Thank you for passing this one along!
It’s great that you are feeding such a variety. My kids ate or at least tried more things when they were younger. Now I find myself making smoothies with spinach in the strawberries to get the necessary vitamins and nutrition they need.
My daughter is going through the same phase. It’s normal for them to go through the Picky Eating stages. Don’t give up and keep introducing foods even if they refuse it. They’ll come along eventually!
Looks a perfect recipes and I would love to try this I’m sure my two boys would surely love this
Thank you! Hope you give it a try and that they enjoy it!
Sounds yummy!!! I’m not sure I could get my son to eat this, but definitely one of my nephews.
Thanks Ashley! let me know how our nephew likes it!
I made all my youngest’s baby food! It really isn’t all that hard when you find great recipes like this!
I found it was so fun to make all of my baby’s foods. Thank you!!
I’ve never thought of using turnips! I’m all done with the baby food stage, but I’ll have to tell my sister-in-laws about this.
Thank you Elena! Hoe she likes it too!
My hubby thinks I’m crazy for liking turnips. I will pass this great recipe along to my friends with babies. Great Job.
I love turnips lol. They do have a very distinctive taste tho. Thank you! I appreciate that!
Looks delicious. I’m a huge advocate for introducing babies to real whole foods once your child’s pediatrician says he or she is ready.
Same here. I’m all about homemade.
