Baby Food Smoothie!

About a month and a half ago, I made a big batch of baby food for Moose (see that post here). I made about a 2 month supply. At the time I made it, he was eating pureed food for breakfast and lunch, and "real" food for dinner. But it wasn't long before he wouldn't eat the pureed goods anymore. So about 3 weeks after I made him 2 months of food, he refused it all! So now I have a lot of pureed frozen food.

There are about 20 different assorted fruits and veggies. I do not separate them when I store them, I just mix them all together. When I thawed them for The Moose, I would 3 or 4 similar items and thaw them together for a serving (so 4 fruits, or 2 green peas and 2 carrots, etc.). I know what some of them are. But some of them could be 1 of 3 or 4 different things. One of the trickiest is the beets, they look like a fruit.

Since The Moose won't eat pureed food anymore, and I have a ton of it, I thought I would experiment with smoothies!

I picked about a dozen cubes. I did mostly fruit (or what I think is fruit!) and a few greens.

I added about a cup of milk (this is low temp pasteurized), about 2 tablespoons local, raw honey I got at the farmers market yesterday, about 1/4 cup goat yogurt (that used to be The Moose's favorite, but he's not eating that now either. I think once he can work a spoon and feed it himself he'll like it again.), and a few tablespoons of rolled oats.

My experiment worked! I definitely ended up with some beets in here (not my fav). But other than that it's very yummy! I will be making a lot of smoothies over the next few weeks until I use up the frozen food.
