Mamas and papas will love this healthy baby food recipe too!
(For babies 6 months and up; yields 32 tablespoons)

Ingredients:
1 bag (16 oz.) peeled baby carrots
½ Golden Delicious or Fuji apple, peeled and diced
1 pinch ground ginger (optional)

Directions:

Place carrots in a pan with a steamer basket. Add enough water so that it just comes to the bottom of the basket. Bring to a slow boil, cover and steam for 5 minutes.

Add diced apple and steam for 10 minutes more.

Transfer to a blender and reserve the steaming liquid. Add ginger (optional) and 1/2 cup of reserved liquid; puree until smooth and desired consistency. Add more liquid if necessary.
