Are you considering to make your own homemade baby food, and have you put any thought towards homemade baby food storage? In this article we give our top tips why home made is best and how to store you own homemade baby food with our reusable baby food pouches.
As adults, we put so much time and thought into what we eat. Most of us without a doubt prefer a home cooked meal over a ready made meal from the supermarket. Not only because it tastes better, but because we know what is in it and can avoid the nasty additives, added sugar and preservatives that we know are in readymade food. So it makes sense to put the same, if not more time and effort into ensuring the food we feed our babies is just as nutritious!
There are so many benefits to homemade baby food:
Super Healthy.
Store-bought foods are stripped of the healthy nutrients that a baby needs. For a long shelf life, they are often passed through extreme temperatures which destroy vital nutrients. In addition, companies often load store bought foods with preservatives, and add sugars, salts, unhealthy fats, thickening agents and artificial flavours. Being at a critical developmental stage, babies require vital minerals and nutrients that are easily found in fresh uncompromised food.
No Unpleasant Surprises.
No one knows your baby like you do. As a parent, you know your baby’s favorite flavours, and any foods they may be allergic to. With homemade food, you can be 100% confident in knowing what your baby is eating.
Save Money. Who couldn’t do with some extra cash?
Store-brought produced foods tend to be quite expensive when you add it all up! However, buying fruit and veg that is in season, preparing large quantities of your baby’s food and freezing it for later use will help you save a decent sum of money!
Saves Time.
Isn’t this just the ultimate gift? Just prepare a whole week’s fresh homemade food, pack it and freeze it. This is unbelievably easy and time-saving! You will have food ready for when you are at home as well to take with you on the go!
