Weaning Baby - Avocado Puree
4 Reviews
|
Avocados are sometimes thought of as a vegetable but they are actually a fruit and contain more nutrients than any other fruit - perfect for weaning baby. They are also rich in monounsaturated fat, the ‘good type’ of fat which helps prevent heart disease. The high calorie content of avocado makes it a good food for growing babies. Avocado is a great source of the free radical fighting antioxidant vitamin E, which also boosts the immune system. Avocado is easy to digest. A popular no cook combination for babies is avocado and banana together.
Ingredients1 small avocado
MethodCut a small avocado in half, remove the stone, scoop out the flesh and mash together with a little of your baby’s usual milk.
InformationFrom 6 months |
Is it a fruit or a vegetable?
Whatever it is it has incredible powers. Avocados are rich in monounsaturated fat the ‘good’ type of fat which helps prevent heart disease and can help lower bad cholesterol. The essential fats found in avocados are the building blocks of beautiful skin.. They are also one of the best sources of vitamin E which helps with wound healing a good complexion and strong immune system. Oh – and they also have the highest protein content of any fruit…

One of my sons favourite recipe. Sometimes i would add his milk, other times i may squeeze a bit of juice from an orange to give a sweeter taste. I have also added mashed banana to it too
