Preparing Baby Solids - Avocado Puree

~ Posted on Wednesday, May 9, 2012 at 7:57 AM ~

One of my Facebook follower asked me to blog about how I prepare the solids for my girl when I posted pictures of my kids' meals on my Facebook page. So here it goes the tutorial for avocado puree:

** Personal Note: Choose an avocado the way you choose a mango. If it makes a dent when you press it, that means the avocado is ripe. If it is not ripe yet, just leave on the countertop and wait, or you can put it in a paper bag to speed up the ripening process.

** Personal Note: I use a spoon to scoop out the flesh. My preferance is to scoop until almost the skin - just like how we do for a papaya I guess...

** Personal Note: To store, just put the scooped out avocado into a container and freeze it. I didn't mash it before store as I prefer to mash it right before I feed my girl. To mashm i just use the back of my spoon and mash it. To feed, just scoop out the amount you want and add some breastmilk if you want some taste to it and feed!

Hope the above tutorial helps! Feel free to ask questions or share your feedback/experiences!
