Beetroot and Potato Puree (For age 6 months+)

Beets are very nutritious for your little one. They contain calcium, potassium, vitamin A, magnesium, folate and very good amount of fiber too. But I think beets are not as popular as the other fruits and vegetables, eventhough they are ideal for your little one. But there is a Mommy trick, mix beet with your baby’s favorite food. What I do is, mix them with potato or sweet potato. Usually babies will love this taste. This recipe is one of them. Simple and delicious "Beetroot and Potato Puree".

Ingredients (For 4 servings)

Beet- 1, medium size

Potato- 1, medium size
Salt, to taste

Process

Step 1: Peel the potato and beet. Cut them into small cubes.

Step 2: Cook them together by adding salt and water (I use my pressure cooker by giving one whistle).

Step 3: Mash them together with fork or spoon (I use my NUK mash&serve bowl). Or, blend them together in a blender by adding baby water or breastmilk or formula until smooth and creamy). Refrigerate them in an airtight container for up to three days or freeze them if you make it in large quantity. You can store them in freezer for up to 2 months.

Cook beet and potato together until they tender.

Mash them until you get desired consistency

Beetroot and Potato puree is ready to serve

HAPPY COOKING!
