Fennel, Peach + Pea Baby Food Puree

The most amazing thing happened to me a week or so ago, I got over my morning [all day] sickness! That’s right no more throwing up, no more nausea, no more naps at all hours of the day. After almost 5 months of being sick, I am finally better. This baby growing in my belly does love me after all.

I’m back!

And I’m back with even more energy then I had before I got pregnant.

Scattering of produce on a cutting board.

This is making my husband very scared due to the amount of projects that are multiplying by the day. It is Spring. My ideas are just like rabbits. I mean who doesn’t need a vertical garden built against their garage this summer? There has to be time to refinish the table that I found in the alley last summer, right? Who doesn’t need to schedule time to spend rearranging all the cupboards in our kitchen? Nesting has hit me and I am going crazy. It’s cool.

I am also getting to everything that I have put on the back burner for all these months.

This recipe is one of them.

And I am sorry about that, because this recipe is amazing.

This puree is sweet with a cheeky kick from the licorice fennel, mixed with a healthy dose of peas, it is a puree that mom can be proud of and kiddo will eat up. I served this in a reusable pouch and my little one ate it up in no time at all. Smooth and refreshing,
