Sweet Potato and Carrot Pie Without the Crust


"I call this a pie, but it has no sugar. It is made with one egg, so
it is rich in protein and can be a main meal. Serve with chopped
tomato and a slice of bread and you have a balanced meal. " --Eileen
Behan, R.D.


1 sweet potato
1 carrot, finely grated
1/4 cup plain yogurt
1 egg
1 tablespoon raisins (optional)
grated nutmeg (optional)


For 8-12 month-olds or omit raisins for younger children:
In microwave oven, cook sweet potato at 100 percent for 5 minutes, or
longer if it is very big. Prick the skin before cooking. Carefully
remove the meat of the potato. In a bowl, mix in the carrot and
yogurt, then the egg; blend until smooth. Add the raisins and nutmeg
sprinkle if you are using them. If the mixture appears dry, add
another tablespoon yogurt. Cook at 100 percent, uncovered, for 2
minutes. Stir, cook 1-1/2 minutes more. Let rest 2 to 3 minutes. This
tastes best if served as soon as it cools. Serve with a dollop of cold
yogurt.


Yield: 2 cups

Baby Dinner


1 cup water
1 chicken breast
1/4 cup rice
3 whole carrots
1/4 pound green beans


For Babies 6-12 months:
In a covered pot, and using no salt or spices, combine water, chicken breast
and rice Simmer 20 minutes and add carrots and green beans
Simmer 10 minutes longer.
Blend or process the meat with enough of the cooking broth to make it
moist. Mash the carrots and then the beans Store separately in
individual servings in the freezer sealed in plastic sandwich bags, or
in a plastic ice-cube tray, which must be bagged and tied. Defrost a
meal at breakfast, so it's ready to heat for lunch. As your child gets
a few months older and can chew better, you can grate these
ingredients instead of blending them and you can use your leftovers, too.

Babies can eat almost anything you cook but NO SALT and definitely no nuts. A good idea is to chop up potatoes, carrots, swede, cabbage, onions and herbs and boil with some finely minced lean meat or fish, then mash it all together. Keep their diet healthy, don't add sugar, don't give them potato chips ( crisps ) or rubbish processed food.
If your baby is teething, freeze a banana and give it to the child, it is very soothing to the gums. Remember no junk food.

When you cook set some aside for baby with no salt/butter.
Puree what you leave aside for them every meal.....

The baby will also get used to what is being fixed and not expect you to feed them different meals than you already made.

We did much the same as gypsy, pureed good veg/fruit etc and froze it in ice cube trays to use as and when, you are what you eat tho so no rubbish! (until you are 35 and at the computer guzzling wine and junk food that is)
