Today I experimented with a new dish for my toddler – chicken and mashed potatoes.  Came out pretty yummy.  In fact it’s so good, I could eat the whole thing myself!

I used couple of ounces of boiled chicken breast, two mid-size baked potatoes, half cup of whole milk and about quarter of a table spoon of butter.  I skinned the baked potatoes and cut them into smaller pieces.  I cut the chicken into smaller pieces as well.  Then I threw everything into the food processor and let it puree.  It came out a little on the thick side, but it will probably be okay.  If not, I can dilute it more with milk or water later.

Homemade baby food is actually more eco-friendly than the store bought one.  Why?  Because it doesn’t involve a glass jar or a plastic container that baby food normally comes in.  These usually end up in the garbage right?  So by avoiding store-bought, you create less garbage!
