So...carrots! Delicious, organic, picked from the farm goodness. Most of you probably know that we have a CSA membership (community supported agriculture) in which we get a big basket of fresh picked veggies every week. From this I made his carrot baby food for this week and turnip for next week. For the carrots, I steamed them, put them through a food mill, added some of the water from the steaming to thin it out, and added some rice cereal for added vitamins and to make it go a little further. I made the turnips next without washing out the carrots from the food mill. So it's a mix of turnip, carrot, rice cereal, and breastmilk.
His initial hesitancy included some really cute yucky faces which I did not capture very well on camera. By the end though he was loving it.
As for OUR new food, I finally found a way to enjoy kohlrabi. We have actually eaten this vegetable before, but we have never enjoyed it or had it in this way. I cooked it in this Thai curry, and it was fabulous! So since we decided to also try a new food on Fridays at 6:30pm, this is going to have to count! :)
