Puree Butternut and Pear

By V

 

Hello lovely people, how are you all?

Today I will show you what I did by pure coincidence for my baby. One day I was making her snack and cooking pear puree. I usually do a whole batch of puree and freeze them in ice cubes. I am a working mum and for nothing on earth I will give them processed baby food. So this is my way to save time… so coming back to my pear story:

I gave her pear puree for her snack and she refused to eat  as on that day; she was teething and quite uncomforable. So in those situations, I rather she has a bottle of milk. Then when it came for dinner, I still had my untouched pear puree! I was heating up her butterbut (au bain marie).

 

 

Recipe for the butternut squash: Peel & Cut in small pieces – steam for 15-20 minutes and you can freeze the rest. I always keep those handy in case I got back home late from work.
