Making your own baby snacks using fruits and vegetables




I really can't believe it that my kids are constantly eating. However, it is totally different during proper meals.

And it is bad that they keep eating outside snacks which might contains salt, presevatives and colouring. So I like to introduce making your own healthy baby snacks.And it will be great too for adults too to snack together.

1. Chop or cut the vegetables/ fruits a hape and size fitting for your little one to pick up easily and chew/swallow safely. Remember that the smaller the dice, the more quickly it cooks. And the size and shape should take into considerations your child's age and his/her ability to self-feed themselves.

2. Coat the chopped dices with olive oil.

3. Put it into the 350ยบ oven and stir occasionally, until the toughest vegetable is tender, for roughly 30 minutes. The vegetables need to be cooked to the point they are easily smashed between your thumb and forefinger.

Some good vegetables and fruits choices are:

•Potatoes, sweet potatoes, turnips, parsnips, celery, carrots, broccoli and cauliflower, beets
•Bananas, Papaya, apples
