Pureed, cooked vegetables are a large part of the Super Baby Food Diet. To save time and energy, cook and puree large batches of veggies all at once and freeze them in ice cube trays using the Food Cube Method.
The Food Cube Method involves two steps:
1) Placing the food in ice cube trays and letting it freeze until solid, and
2) Transferring the frozen food cubes into plastic freezer bags.
Remember, the pureed food in the ice cube trays should be frozen as quickly as possible.
After the the food cubes are frozen solid (8-12 hours), transfer them to freezer bags (you must use Freezer bags, not storage bags) removing as much of the air in the bag as possible. Label and date each bag with a freeze date and a expire date. It’s safe to say that frozen vegetables will keep up to two months. A timesaver tip is to mix together several days worth of orange and green vegetable cubes and avocado cubes in the same freezer bag. This trick makes it easier to find, pull out, and open ONE bag instead of three!
