Pumpkin Purée for Baby

A wholesome, silky first food for your little one! Parents pick their baby's first foods carefully, scanning the label on every pretty jar at the store. But why hand your child's health over to someone else when you can lovingly make a fresh, natural purée yourself? I make all of my baby's foods from scratch, using vegetables and fruit grown in Grandma's garden. Here's my pumpkin purée—simple and good for baby!
