Homemade Baby Food
Sweet PotatoesWhat you'll need:
- a couple sweet potatoes, or yams
- some water
- food processor or blender
- jars or ice cube trays
Allow sweet potatoes to cool and then peel the skins off.
Place sweet potatoes in a food processor or blender and add a little water. Blend well until desired consistency. Add water to make it thinner if needed.
Place in baby food jars and refrigerate for up to a couple days or freeze in ice cube trays then transfer to ziplocks. Frozen it should last about a month. They defrost quickly, within about 2 hours. Each ice cube is approximately 1 1/2 tablespoons.
You can easily mix this with applesauce or other baby food. : )
I hope you enjoy making this for your baby.Feel free to leave comments with suggestions or ideas. :)

This was my babies' favorite food, besides avocado. They did love their sweet potatoes! I figure we saved about $500 on each kid by making our own baby food. Great post!
My babies absolutely LOVED sweet potatoes! I never actually made our own baby food. But this post has totally inspired me to try it with our future babies!! :o)

I've been making baby food since baby #5 (we now have 10) and sweet potatoes were a favorite. I have always found avocado the easiest to prepare though. Your picture of the finished product is very sweet. :)
Cheryl, thank you! :) I tried avocado but my baby didn't seem to like it. I'll probably try it again soon. :) Blessings...
