In my continued quest to get my kids to eat more vegetables, I’ve started to make vegetable puree to hide in their food (and mine).
This week I pureed some organic spinach that we got at the Pfarmers Market last week.
How to Puree Spinach
First I washed it.
Next I folded it over and cut the stems off.
Then I put it in a microwave safe dish and with a little water and microwaved it for 90 seconds.
Then I used my cool Magic Bulletto puree it.
Finally I poured the pureed mix into an ice cube tray and stuck it in the freezer over night.
The next morning I popped them out and put them in a baggie and back in the freezer. This allows me to grab just a bit each time I need it.
These can be added to smoothies, muffins or even brownies without anyone being the wiser that they’ve just gotten a serving of green veggies!

It’s also a great way to make fresh baby food if you need that!
