Plum Organics - Baby Food Recipes for Thankgiving
November’s finally here!
While parents are feasting on a five course Thanksgiving dinner, babies are only receiving their typical room temperature, jarred food. Not this year! This holiday season babies are being fed a Plum Organics meal even adults will love.
Plum Organics, a new line of organic baby food created by Gigi Lee Chang, is giving babies a chance to partake in the holiday eating festivities, too! As a mother herself, it was Gigi’s mission to make food that her son would both enjoy and that is filled with nutrients. Plum Organics are available in 2 stages; Real Smooth and More Texture to satisfy children of developmental stages from 6 months and up. www.plumorganics.com
Sweet Potato Turkey Casserole
Ingredients
• 1 tsp olive oil or vegetable oil
• 1/8 cup diced onions
• 1/4 cup finely chopped roast turkey
• 1/8 cup finely chopped cooked green beans or peas (fresh or frozen)
• 1/4 cup water
• pinch finely chopped rosemary
• 4oz Plum Organics™ Sweet Potatoes puree
Directions
Heat oil in a small pan over medium heat. Add onions and sautee until soft, about 2 minutes.
Mix in roast turkey, green beans/peas, rosemary and water. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
For babies 6-9 months, puree the whole meal in a blender. Add extra water if necessary.
For older babies, roughly mash the mixture in the pan with a potato masher.
Warm Plum Organics™ Sweet Potatoes separately and fold into final blended mixture or mash. Allow to cool and serve.
TIP: For a healthy, hearty toddler meal, place the rough mash in a small oven proof dish, top with cheese and bake at 350° for 5 minutes or until cheese is melted. Allow to cool thoroughly and serve in a child-friendly dish.
