Welcome!

Welcome to Olsen's homemade baby food. I have been making homemade baby food for the last few months since my little Morgan has been able to eat solids. When my oldest Brekke was eating solids I bought store bought baby food and every time I went to go buy more for her i was more and more over whelmed with the price of the baby food. So when Morgan was just a couple months old i bought a baby food grinder intended on using it for homemade baby food. I really enjoy making it knowing that its a lot healthier for the baby and you get so much more for your money. Its very easy to do also. I added a lot of my homemade recipes i have made and then i did a lot of recerching to find some recipes online so everythign would be in one place. :) I hope you guys all enjoy this and if you have any questions please let me know. I have saved a ton so far by doing homemade baby food and you will too. Below you will find 1 recipe generally the last 1 i have posted and then off to the right will be the different categories everything is in :)

Apricot Puree (6 - 8 months)

1. 1 pound dried apricots
2. 2 c. white grape juice or apple juice.
Plain water is ok but the puree may be a bit bitter.  Some babies actually like a bitter taste however.  Consider using ½ water or ½ juice if you disagree with the juices or if baby cannot have juice.  You can always mix in another fruit such as peaches or bananas and leave out the juice entirely!

3. Bringliquid and fruit to a boil and simmer for 15 minutes.
4. Reserve any left over liquid to use for the puree
5. Place into your choice of appliance for pureeing and begin pureeing.
6. Add the reserved liquid as necessary to achieve a smooth, thin puree or
7. Add cereal (if desired) to thicken up
8. Note: puree will not freeze solid, but into slightly soft/slightly frozen cubes
