  I have done sweet potatoes, avocado, bananas, pears, apples, and peas. That was about the limit of my making baby food talent and we stopped there! I had no problem with any of them.

  other than what you have already tried, we have made and frozen apples, carrots,?broccoli, green beans, potatoes (they froze and reheated better when we used the food processor vs. the food mill), plums, squash,?zucchini, lentils.

  i use the microwave to thaw and found that bananas get sweeter when cooked so i always mixed them with cereal if i froze them. ?it tasted like banana bread. ? melons and papaya freeze ok but need to be thawed in the fridge or on the counter. ?

  bananas, avocado, pears, butternut squash, acorn squash, sweet potatoes, apples, peaches.  So far everything has been super easy except peaches.  But thats because I mash things up rather than puree.  Peaches were harder to mash up with a fork.  I'm sure they would be easy if you puree.  Im doing carrots and green beans today
