Baby Food to Go
- Purée fresh fruit and veggies and freeze them in ice cube trays for ready-made meals you can take anywhere.
- Vegetable and fruit purées will keep in the freezer for four to six months.
- Frozen food cubes take three to four hours to thaw in the refrigerator and one to two hours to thaw at room temperature.
- An insulated lunch bag and a set of plastic containers with lids make baby takeout a breeze.
ust because you're away from home doesn't mean your baby needs to eat out of a jar. Here's how to prepare baby meals in motion.
Make homemade purées to go
For easy homemade fruit and veggie purées, simply cook fruit and veggies in a little water until soft, transfer to a food processor or blender, and process for one to two minutes until smooth. Filling clean ice cube trays with portion-sized purée will give you healthy, ready-made meals you can take anywhere. (Vegetable and fruit purées will keep in the freezer for four to six months.)
