Avocado is a great first food for baby because it’s highly nutritious, rich in good fats and you don’t have to do much preparation.
Here’s what I did: I mashed up a quarter of an organic avocado in a small stainless steel mixing bowl and added a generous amount of breastmilk to form a smooth, liquidy consistency. I transferred the mixture into a ceramic dish and offered baby small amounts to taste from a little spoon. It was home made and easy 🙂
The tools we used to prepare and feed baby with were handpicked with a lot of thought and love. Some of the items we had at home, some were purchased online and some we got the day of at Nathan & Co, a local shop in Rockridge.
Baby food prep & feeding tools:
Core Kitchen Bamboo + Silicone All-Purpose Spatula for mashing
Core Kitchen Bamboo + Silicone Pointed Spatula for slicing and spreading
Core Kitchen Bamboo + Silicone Spoon for multipurpose use
It took me a really long time to find stainless steel baby spoons that were made in USA and not made of plastic. They were purchased online here:
