Ingredients
- 2 sweet potatoes, peeled and cubed
- 1 large carrot, peeled and chopped
- 1 cup cauliflower florets
- 1/4 teaspoon chia seeds
Instructions
- In a medium saucepan, bring 2 inches of water to a boil. In a steamer basket, add in the sweet potato, carrot and cauliflower, place basket over boiling water and cover. Steam for 12-15 minutes or until all ingredients are tender when pricked with a fork. Remove from heat and let cool slightly. Reserve steamer water.
- Transfer the sweet potatoes, carrots and cauliflower to a blender or food processor and add in the chia seeds. Add in 1/2 cup liquid (steamer water, breast milk, formula, stock or water).
- Puree all of the ingredient at high speed for 1-2 minutes or until you reach your desired consistency. Add in additional liquid in 1/4 cup increments if puree is too thick. I had to add in 1 cup of reserved steamer water to the puree pictured above.

I have been attempting to puré our family meals but baby wasn’t eating it (besides the spaghetti) I tried this and he loved it!
So glad to hear that!
Do you think it would be ok at add more chia seeds?Â
*to add
Yes. I wouldn’t go too crazy but you could at least double the amount in the recipe card.
