Simple Veggie Puree

In this recipe, cauliflower and broccoli stems are combined with peas and carrots for a quick, simple and nutritious puree. Broccoli is a great source of vitamins K and C, while cauliflower is packed with nutrients and antioxidants while providing relief from indigestion. Cauliflower also aid to increase iron absorption which is really important for young babies and are also a great source of protein. Other great Babycook veggie puree recipes include our Sweet Potato Puree and this Veggie Medley Puree.

Chef’s tip

Instead of using the flowers of the cauliflower and broccoli, use the stem of the vegetables which create a smoother texture with less 'bits'.
