Beef Chuck Roast Stew Baby Food

---

My 1 year old loves this stew. i made this for her at about 10 months old. easy to puree and freeze. one stop meal. not bad for adults either - even without any seasoning. just make sure your baby has been introduced to all the ingredients before serving. servings are approximate. i calculated 3 cubes per serving - your little one might eat more or less depending on age. add pasta or rice if you want to include a whole grain to the meal.
