This is one of those no brainer foods for baby. Steam it, throw it in the food processor and bam, you’re finished. It’s easy to freeze and can be mixed with other foods you’re planning to serve.
The carrots are packed with beta carotene which converts into Vitamin A which helps vision and healthy skin and the cauliflower is a good source of Vitamin C. I always steam a few extra vegetables and chop them into baby bite size pieces, so Kenya can work on his fine motor skills and feed himself.
