The serving size for baby food can vary widely based on the age and appetite of the baby, so follow baby's cues for being done—they will close their mouth and/or turn their head or start to fuss. End the meal when you see those things happen.
Add the peas to a medium pot and cover with about an inch of water.
Place on the stove over high heat. Bring to a boil, then remove from heat.
Drain in a colander.
Add to a blender and blend smooth, adding 1/4-1/2 cup water (or sodium-free broth) to create a smooth baby food puree. (Less liquid will create a thicker puree, more liquid will create a thinner one.)
Serve or store for future meals.
Notes
Use organic peas if desired.
Add 2 tablespoons avocado, 1 teaspoon olive oil, or 1 teaspoon butter to add healthy fats and flavor.
Combine with whole milk plain yogurt for a simple baby snack.
Store in small airtight containers in the fridge for 3-5 days. Serve cold or slightly warm.
Freeze in a silicone ice cube tray overnight. Transfer to a freezer bag, remove as much air as possible, and freeze for up to 6 months. Thaw overnight in the fridge or at room temperature.
Use reduced sodium vegetable or chicken stock and add a little Parmesan to make this as a simple side for the whole family.
