Bringing up a baby foodie

I never thought I'd be the kind of mom who makes their own baby food. Even a few months ago, I thought, Eh.. the stuff in the jar is just as good. But.. I think, would I eat that?? Usually, the answer is no. It looks kinda nasty. I also realized, I can make my own that tastes just as good, for a lot less cost and less waste (I know, it's kinda granola, blame my Colorado roots.)

So, once a week I'm going to try and feature a yummy baby food combo that you moms out there can easily make yourselves. Today, I am making a spinach, pear, apple puree that G absolutely adores. It doesn't take much, just a food processor and 3 ingredients:

 1/2 pear + 1/3 bag spinach sauteed in a little olive oil until wilted + 2 tbsp unsweetened applesauce =

 I won't lie.. it doesn't look very appetizing. But it actually tastes pretty good, and G likes it. (Not that this is surprising. You don't get those thighs by skipping meals.)
