hey guys welcome again to my channel i'm here today with a very interesting video
more so for first time moms if you're stranded about what your baby should eat when they clock
six months then this is the video for you for this first puree i have my potatoes here and
just a polite reminder you need to have at least two chopping boards one for all types of meat
and another for fruits and vegetables i'll go ahead and peel my potatoes then chop them
into small pieces
this way they're going to cook faster than in big chunks
i'm going to rinse this thoroughly and then we put that in the pot
babies are very delicate so you need to rinse anything that requires rinsing
i'm adding just a small amount of water because i don't want to pour any out that way i'll retain
all the nutrients available then i'll put that to simmer for about six minutes you can also use a
steamer to steam them and as you can see this is ready let's now move to blending if you have
blenders you can use that today i'm going to use this small one i bought them both together
yeah so if you don't have these ones here you can use another option and that is a potato masher
if you have these for mashing then that's you're good to go you can use this one and also if you
don't have this one you can use a sieve or a strainer but i advise you don't use a metal one
like this one use a plastic one you just mash them down with a spoon like that and you'll get
your food ready for your baby lastly if you don't have these other ones you can use a fork also and
not everyone has a fork you can use a fork to also mash your food for your baby i'll add my
potatoes in the blender and then after that i'm also going to add some milk on top of it
next i'm going to add one date for sweetening and i'm going to remove the seed first and
then i add it in there and then i'll go ahead and blend
this is one of the meals your baby will enjoy without sweetening
so dates are very optional here but it makes a difference more so for babies who are choosy
after blending this is what we have this you can give to your baby from six months
or some even early but it's recommended you begin at six months yeah from day one you just give him
this even three spoons within a few days the baby will be able to take this whole bowl
in the first two weeks i only gave my baby one meal a day any amount he took just once a day
and then after that i changed that to two meals a day this is in addition to what he used to take
before that is breast milk and formula i made two my today and so i'm not going to dispose this
i'm going to store them in the fridge for next year's next i'm going to make another puree
and i have my pumpkin here we're going to make this differently
and this one can help so much with the constipation
i'll peel my pumpkin as usual then cut that into small pieces then wash
next i have this pumpkin leaf i'm only going to use one this is enough for one serving
i'm going to wash this thoroughly and then i add it into my pumpkin
i'll add in some little water and let that simmer for about seven minutes
it's ready and this is how it looks i'll put that all in the blender and then blend
i'm going to add even the water in there remember we said we're not going to dispose
anything because they have some nutrients i know some of you wonder how this one tastes
it tastes exactly as pumpkin the taste of that leaf has totally disappeared in the pumpkin
and also if you don't have pumpkin leaves you can also use spinach by the way or even
any good vegetable of your choice it is so good and highly nutritious yeah so
for the remaining pumpkin i'm going to just wrap that and then put that in the fridge
you're like a river in the dark this is our third meal i have my rice here this is bishori rice
you can use any rice of your choice i'm going to wash this thoroughly and then i put it to cook
come on you're like an early morning breeze your soft red lips and gentle tears
you must have been sent just for me come on just when i need you
you said sail and navigate but when i need you you lift me up till we levitate
my rice is ready i'm going to add that in the same blender and here i have some cashew nuts
and dates these ones are cashew nuts and i have a date and i'm only going to use two these two
cashew nuts you can also add if you want and then just one date this is for sweetening and here
date is like compulsory and then i'm going to add some milk also babies are also humans and so there
are some foods they will not take if you don't sweeten and some also they can take like the
first meal that i made that one they can take without a sweetener let me just say babies are
different there's some that will take it even that way without putting a sweetener so you have to try
first and then you know what your baby likes and as you can see this is what we have so nice this
one is yummy you can even take it as an adult and please do not forget to give your baby water
at least 30 minutes after every meal
you're mesmerizing hypnotizing
my eyes are set on you we can go wherever we can be whoever
next i have my favorite combo i have papaya i have banana and also an orange
i'm going to wash that well and then tell you what i'm going to do with all these
you lift me up till we levitate you're mesmerizing hypnotizing
my eyes are set on you
i'm going to peel my banana put that together with papaya
and remember when your baby is just starting to eat you need to give them a very small portion
these ones my baby is already seven months yeah so i'm making this for him but for a six
months baby or when your baby is just beginning to eat even just a quarter a banana is enough for them
so
i'm using a fork to mash this and you're going to see how this will also work well
we don't have to blend everything there are some things that you can just use
a fork to mash and you're done there are some fruits and vegetables that you'll see on the
internet here but your baby might not eat them because they're tasteless like no carrots alone
maybe we cannot take carrots you can also not take apples alone so you need to find a way to
make your baby enjoy these fruits and this is just one of them lastly i'm going to cut my orange and
i'm only going to use quarter you don't need to give your baby a lot of this
i'll go ahead and squeeze the orange on my mixture and this is going to bring a very
nice taste and please do not forget to remove the seeds you can even use a strainer because
that can be so harmful to your baby mine was somehow seedless i still don't understand why
this is what we have three in one and i'm sure your baby will enjoy this it's so yummy
next i have my apple here i'm going to wash it
then after that i'll peel it and then cut it into small pieces
oh please
i'll then go ahead and put it in a cooking pot because we want to simmer this a bit
babies are not so good with raw apples i'm also going to add some oats
then i'll add in water and put that on fire
and let that simmer for just two minutes and then i'll start stirring it
because of the oats and once the apples are tender i'll remove that then blend that together
here you can choose to add milk or not but in mine i'm going to add just a little to loosen it a bit
and this is what we have so yummy and you can choose your own consistency you just control
the amount of water you use if you want to get something heavier than this you use
little water next we're going to butternut or a squash puree i'm going to follow the
same process so kindly just watch it till the end there'll just be a very small difference
hold my hand and i'll be in the eyes so i can tell you how i feel
tell you how i feel
every day something new if i spend it with you with you
with you
oh i want you right now and i need you right now you right now
my world is spinning round round around oh i want you now now now my world is spinning round
and i want you now and i want you now and i want you now
butternuts are very sugary even pumpkins they're very sugary so i'm not going to add any sweetener
here i'm only going to add some milk to add some taste and that will be it only two things
another point to note i've had so many intolerance cases with these butternuts
so make sure you try it first before you give your baby butternut every time like when your
baby is beginning to eat make sure you try one food for two days before you introduce another
one because that's enough time to show you whether that food is okay with the baby or it's not and
here we have our puree ready the taste of this is so good and most babies cannot resist it
on to my next recipe i have an egg here this is indigenous but you can use any
and then i also have some irish potato i'll put both in a pot and then let that boil until soft
and i want you now and i want you now my world is spinning around around around
oh i want you now now now the world is spinning around
around and i want you now i'll go ahead and peel both and then mash
searching for something that ain't lost have we got our lines crossed
we're wasting time with stuff that doesn't really matter you can either choose to put egg yolk alone
or the whole egg if you put egg yolk alone it will be so easy to mix in but if you put it
with this egg white then you'll have trouble a bit yeah or you just need to blend it so that
you get it soft because that white part takes a very long time to mash it fully
i'm adding in a little bit of water to help with the consistency
you have in front of you
after mashing we're going to fry these i'm going to have some little oil in my cooking pot
and then after that i'm going to grate a small amount of onion and for the cooking oil i recommend
coconut oil or olive oil if you can't afford all that then use the oil that you can afford
but at least just try for your baby so that you can avoid so many problems
i'll add my onion and then fry that just a little bit
and then after that i'm going to add my mixture
or maybe i'm not enough for you
babies are completely not recommended to take any salt or sugar yeah but here i'm going to
add just a pinch of salt you cannot even get to tell the difference yeah i just need it to like
because it's fried i need it to give that taste and also i'm just doing it once in a while so
it's not something that can be so harmful to my baby and here we have our food ready you can also
choose not to fry it you can just blend together with milk and you'll be done lastly we have sweet
potato and avocado puree i'll peel my sweet potato and then put that to cook my sweet potato is
yellow inside yeah so you can go for the yellow one or the orange one inside they are more nutritious
than the white one i'll then cut my avocado and use half the remaining side you can sprinkle
lemon and then you put it inside a container that way it will not darken i'll add the sweet
potato and avocado in my blender then i'll add in some milk and blend
and this is what we have guys very yummy and nutritious for those that don't like the taste
of avocado you can just mix it this way and you not even feel the taste we have come to an end
