Sweet Potato and Banana Puree



They say the way to man's heart is through his stomach and I would have to agree. My husband certainly married me because I cook. And now it seems my son has quite the appetite as well.

But this post is not really for them, it is more to encourage all those moms out there that are exhausted, strung out, and covered in baby spit up. You can with almost no effort make organic baby food in no time, with leftovers and your fruit bowl.

Ingredients

1 baked sweet potato (left over from the night before) (preferably organic)
1 banana (preferably organic)
a little water to thin the puree if necessary

Method

You can do this one of two ways:

1. add ingredients to a bowl and have at with a potato masher or a fork
or
2. puree in a food processor

Viola! That is it. Now the tough part... getting it into his mouth.

Good luck out there. My son Freddy, 6 months, loves this mash-up. I hope your bubbies do too.

As always, much love, many blessings, and happy mashing.
