Beef Chuck Roast Stew (baby Food)

"My 1 year old loves this stew. I made this for her at about 10 months old. Easy to puree and freeze. One stop meal. Not bad for adults either - even without any seasoning. Just make sure your baby has been introduced to all the ingredients before serving. Servings are approximate. I calculated 3 cubes per serving - your little one might eat more or less depending on age. Add pasta or rice if you want to include a whole grain to the meal."

directions

  • Trim excess fat off roast and cut into 1-1/2 inch cubes.
  • Fill medium sauce pan with water, add meat, cover pan and simmer over medium/low heat for 40 minutes.
  • While the meat is cooking, peel the carrots and slice. Peel the potato and cut into 1/2 inch cubes. Set aside.
  • After the meat has been cooking for 40 minutes, add the carrots, onion, peas & potatoes. Cover and cook another 15 minutes or until vegetables are soft and meat is longer pink. If the water disipates before the vegetables are done, add more as needed.
  • FOR INFANTS:.
  • Separate the meat from vegetables. Using your food processor, puree the meat first to almost the desired consitency. Add the vegetables and puree until smooth or desired consistency.
  • Scoop into ice cube tray and freeze. Once frozen, pop out and store in sealed plastic bag for up to 3 months.
  • FOR OLDER BABIES:.
  • Cut up meat to bite size pieces and serve veggies as-is. Freeze in indivual containers for easy one serving sizes.

  1. My son (9 months) seemed to enjoy this. I substituted broccoli for the peas--he's allergic-- and used sweet potato instead of a white potato. I added some brown rice to give more texture and complete the meal.
