Marlee's Baby Super Food: Apricot & Mango
Makes: about 5 cups
2 c. dried apricots
1 mango, peeled, pitted and chopped
Place dried apricots in a medium pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low and simmer until reconstituted and plump. (This may take some time and you most likely will need to add more water throughout process).
Place plump apricot, mangos and enough water in a blender or food processor and pulse until smooth. Slowly add more water as needed while pulsing.
* Store in an air-tight container in the fridge for up to 1 week or in the freezer for up to 2 months. Ice cube trays are a great way to freeze small portions of food that can be easily heated as needed.
Depending on the food you're cooking you can either steam, boil, bake or roast ingredients, however, steaming is the best method to preserve nutrients.
