Babies: 3 - 6 Months

Food steamer for baby food

A 3 shelf food steamer is at aldi for $20 and it looks cool to steam 3 veggies at once, but I vaguely remember something about carrots or something that maybe it isn't ok to steam things together for baby food. Also, would it be cool to use this left over water (if it makes any) to thin purees? This is a link to a similar item, so you could see what I'm talking about https://mobile.shopping.com/offerDetail.html?offerId=GEjIjSpqjFKL1jNRnI1YWA== Tia!

  • I have a baby brezza that steams and purees. I love it! I would get something like that.

  • You're not supposed to use the water carrots are steamed in due to nitrate levels.

  • I just use a food processor and cook my veggies on the stove.  Much cheaper than some of the products out there and it works just fine for me.  I usually do them separate and have been freezing them for when I LO can eat them.

    This is what I do. Just steam them and process them and then freeze in ice cube trays and pop them out, store them in Ziplocs in the freezer and pull out cubes as needed. Works perfect and it's one less kitchen gadget that I had to buy!
