👶🏼 BABY BLOCKS: The ultimate way to bulk prep baby food 🙌🏼 You guys loved “Duplo Dinners” so here’s “Baby Blocks” - something that is going to save you time, money, and your sanity, because cooking a variety of foods every day for a baby isn’t always possible. This is a simple way to prep and freeze multiple components separately: grains, sauces, proteins, and veggies… like building blocks you can mix and match to create multiple different meals for your baby. You can do this by filling freezer moulds with leftovers when you cook a meal for the family (make sure it’s in safe sizes and free of salt, sugar, chilli, and caffeine). Our containers are from @seedandsproutco which are the perfect portion size. I find 4 small 50 ml blocks work really well for baby led weaning. Pick what you want, pop them into your glass container, defrost in the fridge overnight or in a pan, and warm it up however you like. The dishes below work well thinned out as a sauce with pasta or rice, as a puree for scooping, or as a dip with bread. You can also use our favourite trick to increase flavour tolerance: our veggie bean mash, which helps dilute stronger flavours like curry while your baby’s taste buds adapt. The recipes I made here are: 🍛 Lentil Dahl 🫜 Creamy Beet and Cashew Sauce 🎃 Roasted Pumpkin with white bean and broccoli mash 🫛 Pea and Edamame Spread 🍚 Quinoa with Rice (such a good way to introduce quinoa mixed with rice) 🍝 Iron fortified baby pasta Let’s get the freezers stocked.
