- Place potato and carrot in another pot; cover with water. Bring to a boil; reduce heat and simmer until softened, about 15 minutes. Drain.
- Place corn in a saucepan with 1/2 cup water. Bring to a boil; reduce heat; stir and cook until tender, 3 to 4 minutes. Drain.
- Transfer corn to a food processor. Add chicken stock and puree until smooth, about 10 seconds. Add chicken, carrot, and potato. Puree until mixture is smooth and reaches desired texture.

BABY FOOD- CHICKEN
I used to make my own baby food when the kids were younger. This was one of their favourites. Gradually, I added garlic powder, onion powder (as they got older), parsley, herbs, ginger, cayenne, cumin. Soon, they were able to eat all the spicy foods that I cooked. This is a good basic recipe even if you're not trying to introduce new flavours, vegetables , etc. Prep time includes the time to bake the chicken. For younger babies, this may be good for 2-3 serivings. For older ones, it would probably be sufficient for one serving. I have recorded it as one serving in this case.

THIRD BABY FOOD: CHICKEN, SWEET POTATO AND SPINACH
My son loves this combination! It's good for him to get the protein from the chicken and nutrients from the spinach with the tasty goodness of the sweet potatoes (I've tried it too, it's not so bad!) Feel free to try other veggies that you have around the house too! I've used carrots or green beans with success as well. Such a time saver for busy moms and dads!

CHICKEN, PEAS AND QUINOA BABY FOOD
This baby food is for older babies who can chew well. I made this recipe up and although I know it is healthy it is not approved by the FDA or a pediatrician. My son loves it and does not have any problem eating or digesting it and that is good enough for me. I use all organic ingredients and freeze it in an ice cube tray. Reheat in the microwave 15 seconds at a time stirring each time.
