Magic Bullet Express (Giveaway Closed) (4 winners)
With Davis we used some baby foods. However once realizing what all is put into these little jars for baby, I really feel hat it is so much healthier to make my own. Why not just do a little extra along with regular meals and prepare it special for baby. In the end it is much cheaper and the health benefits are amazing! No little one needs all the additives that are added to store bought baby foods.

Our family has a real thing for Sweet Potatoes, so this is what I did for my four babies during the years:
Scrub about 3 or 4 sweet potatoes and bake at 450 degrees F. for 40 to 50 minutes, testing with a fork for desired softness. Allow to cool. Peel, then out in food processor, adding vegetable cooking juices, milk, or a bit of apple juice.
I also suggest you can use a potato masher to have it more textured, or a Magic Bullet! lol.

I like this recipe from Martha Stewart:
1 ounce skinless, boneless chicken breast
1 medium new potato, quartered
1 small carrot, peeled, trimmed, and cut into 1/2-by-2-inch sticks; or 5 green beans, trimmed; or 3 medium white mushrooms, wiped clean
1 cup homemade or low sodium canned chicken stock
In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine chicken, potato, choice of vegetable, and chicken stock. Cover, and cook for 10 minutes.
Remove chicken from pan and puree in a blender with a little stock, until smooth. Transfer to a small bowl. Puree remaining vegetables and stock until smooth. Will keep frozen in an airtight container for up to 3 months.

I love making my daughter’s baby food, and I would love to make it with a Magic Bullet!!! Here’s a really simple recipe that packs in the vitamins and tastes good!
Sweet Potato Pumpkin Puree
1 sweet potato (the dark orange are best, but any will do)
1 small pumpkin (pie pumpkin would be best!)
water
apple juice (if desired)
cinnamon (if desired)
1. wash and PEEL the sweet potato (extra protection from
pesticides and such!)
2. Cut into pieces
3. wash and cut the pumpkin into large chunks
4. Use a steamer or a large pan to steam the sweet potato and
pumpkin
5. Put the steamed veggies into a blender
6. Add some of the water you steamed them in so that you retain
as many vitamins as possible (can add apple juice in
addition to the water, if desired)
7. Blend until very smooth
8. Cool and serve!
You can sprinkle a bit of cinnamon in this if you want, but I prefer not to introduce that to my baby yet. My daughter loves this recipe as is!!!

I always like using fruits and veggies that are in season and being eaten by everyone else anyway. So around fall time, "pumpkin pie" baby food can be awesome. Just puree cooked pumpkin, sprinkle in some cinnamon and/or nutmeg (added benefit of exposing them to some basic spices early on), and voila! If you want to add some sweetness, puree some apple, too. Yum. Then just put it in ice cube trays, freeze it, and store the cubes in plastic bags or bowls to pull out a serving at a time.
May 1, 2010 3:29 PM
1 ripe kiwi fruit
2oz (1/4 cup) prepared baby rice cereal or oatmeal
2oz (1/4 cup) cottage cheese
Peel the kiwi fruit, then puree or mash well with a fork.
Combine with the cereal and cottage cheese for a creamy treat
May 1, 2010 4:10 PM
We puree banana with fresh berries to go with the oatmeal. The banana carries enough sweetness to cover whether you use blueberry, strawberry or blackberry as an addition.
The berries can be fresh or frozen.

Chicken stew has always been a favorite in our home and is a great way to hide all of the vegetables that my children would normally not eat. It is made with:
1 Cut up Fryer (boiled with skin and bones removed)
6 carrots
6 potatoes (skinned and diced)
2 c. cabbage
1 c. Spinach
1 c. peas
1c. corn
1c. Celery (diced)
4c. Organic Chicken Broth
Cook about four hours on med heat.
For my babies I spoon out vegetables and chicken with just enough broth to make a medium consistency and place into a blender and blend at medium speed for two minutes.
They love the taste without knowing that they are eating the vegetables that they would otherwise not have eaten.
Thank you so much for the chance to win.

My daughter is an older baby, but refusing solids of late....we did find out that she loves the smoothies that my son and I make!
- 1 container of whole milk baby yogurt (we use YoBaby)
- milk
- banana
- ice cubes (less for soupier, more for thicker)
- your choice of additional fruit: kiwi, strawberries, peaches (canned or fresh), peeled apple or pear.
Blend and enjoy!
I don't necessarily recommend blueberries for this...it makes it kinda stringy/harder to swallow.

I used to make baby food for my sons when they were babies. I would keep it simple....I would cook carrots and food process them to mush - same with peas. I'd also cook ground beef or chicken and grind them too. Then I'd mix them together and it would be a perfect meal with no preservatives!

Tiny Tummy Thanksgiving:
Even little ones love to celebrate thanksgiving. Unfortunately they’re often too small to dig into the food on the grown-ups table. This baby food recipe blends the flavors of Thanksgiving in an easy to swallow style.
1. Thoroughly wash a sweet potato. Puncture the potato with a fork, wrap, and microwave 5-6 minutes. Potato should be tender. The sweet potato can also be baked if you so choose.
2. Peel the potato. (The skin should pull away from the sweet potato easily.)
3. Cute the sweet potato into cubes.
4. Place diced sweet potato into Magic Bullet Express.
4. Add 2-4 ounces of apple juice (or your child’s favorite – pear also works well).
5. Puree the sweet potato in your Magic Bullet Express until it is the consistency of smooth applesauce.
6. Mix in some oatmeal cereal or pasteurized vanilla yogurt until desired consistency is reached.
Dish it out and enjoy!
Makes 2-3 Servings.
May 6, 2010 12:07 AM
Take 1/2 banana, 1/2 apple and puree until smooth. Add to baby oatmeal or feed your baby the mixture alone as his/her fruit. You can add a baby carrot to the apple and banana mixture to puree but, please make sure that your child doesn't have any allergies to carrots.

My son love anything yellow or orange, so I cooked carrots, sweet potatoes and squash and pureed them.
Sometimes I even mixed several together. He loved it!

Squished Squash
Ingredients: 1 meduim summer squash
Directions: Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Cut the squash in half lengthwise and scoop out the seeds. Place the squash flesh side down on a baking sheet. Bake for 45 minutes or until very tender. It will be done when skin puckers. Scoop out the flesh and puree in food processor or blender until smooth, adding water if needed.

I used to blend together cooked carrots, slightly cooked raisins, and a bit of apple sauce. She loved it.
It would be wonderful to win the Magic Bullet. I kind find so many uses for one today. Thanks for the chance.

My son always loved this.
3 apples
crushed graham crackers.
I boiled apples until tender then added to a blender with crushed graham crackers. Blend until pureed and crackers soften within a few minutes for easy swallowing.
