Healthy beetroot puree which is so good for babies. This is a simple puree which can be mixed with rice porridge or any other porridges too.
For a variation, I made beetroot puree as well. So it is more healthy and nutritious. Beetroots have not only the amazing color, but it is also rich in antioxidants, folate, manganese, potassium, vitamin A and many other properties. So it is good for your babies.
Things to remember:
1)The texture of the puree depends upon you, I would recommend you to make the puree smooth.
2)Your baby won't empty the whole bowl all at once, start with few spoons then increase it gradually as days pass by.
3)I don’t prefer freezing purees. I make it fresh every day. But if you are busy or find difficult to get time, then freeze it in individual containers and thaw it overnight in the fridge.
4)After having this puree, your baby's poop will be red in color. Don’t panic seeing that, it is because of the beets.
