home made baby food

For those planning on making your own baby food, what appliance will be using?

Food processor. blender, or something else? I'm looking at purchasing but not sure what I should get.

TIA!

  • I was given the baby bullet as a gift.  I own a food processor.  I plan on trying them both out.

  • I have a bullet that I use for single serve smoothies. I'll be using that.

    A few years back I sat for a few kids and the mom made her own food. Just put the blended food in a regular square ice cube tray. After it froze, put them in a bag so all I had to do was take a cube out and let it thaw in a dish. Makes a perfect 1 ounce serving.

  • We got the baby bullet and the steamer. We also bought some cheap freezer trays, each square is 1 serving. I will only have to make baby food once a week.
  • I will use my mini food processor, I already used it to make some of the Deceptively Delicious purees, I plan on freezing 1/2 cup portions in ziploc bags and store them flat.

  • I made DD1 baby food and just used a good old blender. I couldn't justify spending the money on something like the baby bullet when it essentially does the same thing as my blender. I then froze them in ice cube trays and then into freezer bags. I plan to do the same with DD2

  • We were gifted with the baby bullet at well, so I guess that answers that!

  • I used the blender and food processor with ice cube trays for storage. For me it was important to be able to make big batches. Check out www.wholesomebabyfood.com Great site with tips and recipe ideas.

  • I cannot wait to use my baby brezza I'm psyched about how it steams and purees.

  • Good old fashioned food processor here. I didn't see the point in buying something specific for baby food when they do the exact same thing. It worked perfect last time.

    ETA: spelling, made it a completely different sentence when it said "door" instead of "food". LOL!
