Could I possibly used can salmon in springwater if I don’t have fresh salmon?
I haven’t tried it, but I don’t see why it wouldn’t work. Let us know how it turns out.
Any fruit to sub for the apricots? Can not find any fresh.
I haven’t tried any other fruit with this, but I would imagine that peaches (fresh or frozen), apples or pears would also be great in this recipe.
Can you use dried apricots for this recipe?
Yes. I would soak 2-3 in hot water for 10 minutes to plump them up so you an puree them.
My little one loves this!
