HOMEMADE BABY FOOD TOOLS OF THE TRADE

Blender and/or Food Processor: Pureeing
 
Stick Mixer: Pureeing smaller jobs or "on-the-go" meals
 
Grinder: Pureeing smaller jobs or "on-the-go" meals
 
Ice Cube Trays (or Storage Containers for freezing): Freezing food cubes
 
Freezer bags: Storing the frozen food cubes from the ice tray.
 
Strainer/Colander: Holding and draining cooked fruits and vegetables
 
Small Holed Strainer/Fine Mesh Strainer:
Pushing more textured foods through to make a more fine and smooth purée (Good for separating green bean and pea skins from purée)
 
Steamer Basket: Steaming fruits and vegetable
 
Masher: Mashing vegetables and fruits when baby gradates to a thicker or more chunky texture (i.e. Potato Masher)
 
Sharpie or Permanent Marker:
Label freezer bags with food cube type and date prepared and frozen

Yes!! The above items are ALL you will need!  Easy Peasy!

NOTE:  For every type of machine you may use to puree, the secret seems to be in how much food you put in the container baskets to begin with. No appliance will do a good job if over stuffed! Fill the containers less than half way full and add a scant amount of liquid to begin with.
