Ingredients
  • 32 oz. organic broccoli florets
Instructions
  1. Put about an inch or so of water in a large stock pot. Add a steamer basket to the pot, making sure that there is no water visible in the basket.
  2. Bring the water to a boil over high heat.
  3. Once the water is rapidly boiling, fill the steamer basket with broccoli and cover the pot.
  4. Steam the spinach for 10-15 minutes or until the broccoli is very tender and a dark green color.
  5. Remove the cooked broccoli and transfer to the food processor.
  6. Process the cooked broccoli until it creates a puree, adding some of the cooking water to thin out to a puree consistency.
  7. Use a spoon to fill up the ice-cube trays with the broccoli puree.
  8. Place trays of baby food in the freezer and freeze until solid, usually over night or up to 24 hours.
  9. Once frozen, pop the cubes of broccoli baby food out of the trays and place into either vacuum sealer pouches or freezer storage bags.
  10. Either vacuum seal the pouches or try to squeeze out as much air as possible out the freezer storage bags.
  11. Place back in the freezer until needed.
  12. Thaw as needed. Each cube is 1 ounce of baby food.
  13. Baby food will last in the freezer for up to 3 months.
