When I was a kid my dad always used to make me cream of wheat – so it seemed like a natural choice when I was looking for things that I could eat along with Cameron. I’ve been making the Cream of Wheat with a little water and a little milk, as well as bananas, which add a natural sweetness. I add the bananas while the Cream of Wheat is still cooking – so it sort of dissolves right in there. Cameron loves it! Soon I’ll be giving it a try with some other fruits as well. Yum (for mommy and baby!)
There are plenty of baby food making products out there, but I decided to go with something practical that I could use for years to come – not just for baby food. This is the Oxo good grips food mill. It’s nice for making the baby food because you don’t have to peel anything – they just don’t pass through. And the food ends up with a little texture which I think is good for baby to get used to. Plus, it makes great mashed potatoes for mom and dad!
I know, it sounds like a weird combination – but avocado and banana has been a big hit. I’ve also heard from other moms that avocado and apple is a good one too.
