S/O Making baby food - Rec your appliance

Mrs.Weggy · September 2010

If you make your own baby food, what type of appliance do you use? Food processor, blender, hand mixer, etc? Any specific brand recommendations? I plan on asking for this for my b-day next months! TIA!

We used a mini food processor for a while and then moved to a stick blender.

Magic Bullet!

Magic Bullet has been great plus you can use it for so many other things.

I used my regular sized Cuisinart food processor.

I am starting this week and I plan on using the same thing. I also have a mini Cuisinart food processor that I will use for smaller amounts of food.

Another vote for Magic Bullet. It was perfect for making DD's babyfood. You could steam the veggies right in the same container using a special lid and then blend them up. Super easy!

Oooooh...the Magic Bullet! I hadn't thought about that! I've been looking for an excuse to buy one of those for years. That might be the winner! I was looking at the Babycook from William Sonoma, but it is pricey and looks really small.

If you decide you want to go the "all in one" route like the babycook, BRU now sells a different brand that is much less expensive.

The reviews are pretty good. I have one but haven't used it yet.
