A Little Friday Night Fruit Cookup...

Tonight after Hudson had gone to bed I was keen to cook the fruit that I had got today while it was fresh. Troy had downloaded a new computer game today and was very keen to give it a run. So off to playing in the kitchen I went. I just wanted to do a couple of trays to re-stock the freezer because all that was left was prune puree and I only like to give that to him once a week because.....well the laxative effect can not be fun for nappy changing if you give it to him more than once a week and as much as prunes are nutritious it isn't a great food for bubs to have too often.

So on the fruit menu this week:
1)Raspberry Puree with Rice Cereal (I use Rafferty's Garden) Note: The cereal thickens up the puree as berries can be watery and also they are quite pricey so the cereal gets you a couple more cubes worth.
2) Kiwi Fruit cooked in diluted fresh orange & passionfruit juice.
3) Mashed Apple cooked with Ground cinnamon & nutmeg (Hudson's FAVOURITE fruit!)
4) Diced Pineapple pieces. (I have cut up some bits to use as finger foods at breakfast and lunch over the next couple of days.)
A little interesting fact about Pineapple. If you incoporate a bit of the core in consumption you get the benefits of Bromelain which is an awesome natural anti-inflammatory and digestive enzyme.
and last but not least.
5) Banana. They were just short of $13/kg today so I only got one. A good finger food option.


Even though it's only bubba food...blogging about this stuff makes me hungry....Mmmmmmmmmmm......
