How to Make Puree

Choose what you are going to puree. Place it in your steamer until soft (rice cooker works great to steam veggies and fruit if you have one of those). Remove from steamer and allow to cool. Discard water. Place into food processor and process until pureed. Package into 1 cup zippies use through out the next week. If you can't use it all up in one week, package and freeze but use it within 2 - 4 weeks.

Side Note:

Fruits turn brown. To stop that add a couple dashes of lemon juice to the puree.
Potatoes are not a good puree
Foods with pungent odors such as broccoli typically work best with tomato based foods unless you don't mind adding that flavor into the meal.
