Asparagus Risotto: Baby Food

In making a variety of new foods for my baby I wanted to make sure I selected foods that are rich in nurtirents and also rich in flavor. I am a HUGE risotto fan so this recipe would definitely sit well with my son! LOL! :) I also decided to throw in 1/2 a sweet potato into this meal as well. I hope your baby enjoys this meal!

INGREDIENTS

* 1/2 cup Arborio rice
* 1/2 cup Baby's Stock (click link for recipe)
* 1/2 sweet potato, peeled and chopped
* 1 tsp extra virgin olive oil
* 2 tsp fresh tarragon, minced
* Asparagus Puree (click link for recipe)

UTENSILS

* Beaba Babycook
* cutting board
* 5 inch santoku knife
* medium, heavy bottomed saucepan

PREPARE

1. Put rice, stock, and oil in a heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium-high heat and bring to a boil.
2. In the meantime chop sweet potato and cook in Babycook, then puree.
2. Reduce heat to low and cook stirring once, until liquid has been absorbed and rice is thick and creamy.
3. Remove saucepan from heat, stir in taragon, and let stand, covered, for 10 minutes.
4. Fluff rice with fork, stir in asparagus and sweet potato purees and place in Babycook and puree until a smooth consistency is reached.
