Sweet Potato, Carrots, Cauliflower Baby Food Puree with Chia Seeds

This amazing baby food puree is part of the serious – Sweet Potato Baby Food – 3 Delicious Ways. 

To make this well-balanced baby puree – we start by gently steaming the sweet potato, carrot, and cauliflower until just tender. Then, we add those veggies to a blender along with a big pinch of chia seeds. Next, we will add a little liquid to thin out these root veggies before pureeing them for 1-2 minutes or until they are creamy and smooth.

Both of my babies loved this puree served along with a side of homemade apple puree, but you could also add in some plain whole-milk yogurt if you want.
