Our Homemade Baby Food – Vitamix Give-away
To celebrate the launch of the Really Little Green Pouch, we are hosting a give-away all about homemade baby food. The Really Little Green Pouch is perfect for tiny hands—babies love eating homemade baby food from our squeezable, refillable food pouches. It's a natural transition to self feeding and—bonus for you!—super low mess.
So we’ve put together a great homemade baby food give-away with some of our favorite products (including Really Little Green Pouches of course!) to make it easier to prep, store and serve homemade baby food to your little one.

Lots of variety early on makes it easier to get kids to eat when they are older.

My first two loved their little green pouches, I can’t wait until I get to use them on baby number 3!

If you are breast feeding, adding breast milk to your purées gives them a creamier texture!
Amanda K
Freezing the pouches ahead of time keeps the purée chilled while out and about and is thawed by the time you’re ready to use it!

I can’t wait to start feeding my second solids, making my own baby food was such a great experience with my first. I loved watching him learn to love food! I freeze pumped milk in ice cube trays to have small portions to mix into purees and cereals. Works great!

I am going to make smoothies to put in my little green pouch for my little one’s snack time!

If at first your LO doesn’t like something cook it another way. And another. And another!
Kenda Fares
My tip is to make sure you have a plan for how to transition away from pureed baby food onto solids
Rebecca
Soups. After dinner purée leftovers, fill a few little green pouches to put in the fridge and freeze the rest in ice cube trays/ ziplock bags.

Also, chop/grind the food as fine as you can before cooking. Shortens cooking time and preserves more nutrients.

My #1 tip is use seasonings!!! I get onion, rosemary, thyme, sage, garlic, cinnamon, mild chilie, cumin, just about every powder/ground spice I can. Or I’ll grind my own. My daughter’s favorite meal is chickpeas, tomatoes & beef with cumin. Just because they are little people doesn’t mean they won’t appreciate big flavors.
Harmony Steele
Do big batches when fruit/veggies are in season and freeze it as freezing is the best way to preserve nutrients.
Stephanie
Baby food maker – Cuisinart
Tara
One of my daughters favorite combos is yogurt, avocado and banana! Perfect for the pouch.
Linh Payne
Use fresh food!
Amber C
Use fresh food!!
Sarah Bloom

Gabrielle
Set aside a day to prep your baby’s food.
Gabby
Looking forward to making baby food for our little one with these cute, convenient packs.
Beckii
We let our son try everything and harvest our garden for fresh veggies.
Aspen Craft
I’ve seen this comment already, but I love using ice cube trays to freeze baby food too! The frozen cubes of food are so convenient to pop out and put into Little Green Pouches!
Jenni
Make your own purees with fresh fruits and veggies that you all eat as a family so baby can join in too :)
Carly
This would be an awesome help to making my own baby food!

My favorite tip is to peel & cut up ripe bananas, spread pieces in one later on a jelly roll pan & freeze. Once frozen, transfer to a container to keep. You can use them in smoothies or mash. You never have to worry about having only green bananas around with no flavor!
