First Food

I purchased a Philips handheld blender from Tangs yesterday. My thought was to puree some food for Zach next weekend but I got so excited and impatient that when I was at Fairprice this morning, I bought a packet of organic baby carrot for Zach. :) I got a new steamer from Ikea earlier. I love it.. it's light and I can steam 2 different stuff at the same time, saving gas! :p

Trusty blender

Organic baby carrot - my personal fave!

Baby cubes - used one to store breast milk for cereal purposes

Preparing carrot puree is a breeze.
First, clean the baby carrot, place them on a plate. Steam them for 15minutes.

Steamer from Ikea only cost me $15

Let the steamed carrot cool for 10minutes before placing them in the container and blend them.

Steamed carrots

Preparation time? 20minutes
Serving size? 4 baby cubes

The final product! I'll let him try later

I will start Zach with all orange / yellow vege first - carrot, pumpkin, potato, sweet potato, then only with green vege - spinach, peas, broccoli. I will give him fruits last as I do not want him to get used to sweet taste prior to bland food first. I am afraid he will be picky about his food, just like daddy and mommy.
