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.
