A Great Way To Stock Up!

A great way to stock up on baby food - cook a large amount and freeze portions. Once your baby's eating foods with more texture, you could put any healthy leftovers from the family meal into a blender and blend to a lumpy pulp.

cook a large amount
let it cool a bit
make it into a purée (with a blender, a mouli, or a sieve)
once your baby's eating foods with more texture, you could put any healthy leftovers from the family meal into a blender and blend to a lumpy pulp. Try blending left over meat or lentils, potato or kūmara and green vegetables – remember not to add salt or sugar to your baby’s meal
freeze portions in ice-cube trays or other food-friendly containers
make several trays at a time so you have less preparation to do
once the cubes are frozen, you can put them into freezer bags (then you can use the trays for the next batch of food)
make sure you label and date the freezer bags
use the frozen cubes over the next 3-4 weeks
food can be kept in the fridge for up to 2 days
