Crazy Carrot~ "Butt Stain"

Soooo...As we have created our potions over the last few weeks...we have finally decided to try carrots... I was a little hesitant because of the whole concern of nitrate poisoning.... so I discussed it with Boopee's pediatrician... and she said no worries... To give the baby some carrots! SOOOO. Carrots...Stand back! Here we come... They were super easy... And Boopee seems to love them! However... Talk about making someones Butt stained ORANGE! OH MY! were we in for a surprise! If you didn't know...know you know...or you will know soon enough if you try them on your little one... what goes in Orange...comes out orange...and what stains the bib...Stains...the Butt! Sooo that sort of inspired the title of this one to be...probably rather a little unappetizing...but we think memorable and appropriate...

Ingredients:

3 Pounds of Carrots
4 oz Baby Apple-Prune Juice

What We Did:
      1. Washed carrots. Placed in handy dandy Royal Prestige Steamer pot on top of stove... Steamed for nearly an hour... THEY TOOK A LONG TIME.
2. Place in Food Processor
3. Pressed Button.
4. Added Juice... Blended a while longer... until consistency was smoother.
5. Spooned into Freezer trays.
6. Freeze.
7. Remove from freezer and place into labeled Ziploc bags or Serve.

How Long did it take?  The cooking of the Carrots took a while...about a good 40 minutes...but I probably spent about 20 minutes in the Kitchen working...

How Easy Was it? Pretty Dag Gum easy.

How Much did It make: 4 Trays ( 1 oz Cubes)

Boopee Tested. Boopee Approved.. I think she would give it a 4.7 ! She seems to love carrots so far!

Only bad things about carrots:  They stain..Clothes... and Baby butts. AND they seem to give her gas... So I end up giving her a couple of drops of mylicon... I hope that gets better after she eats them a few more times...because she seems to really dig them.. and they also help her "PicInic!"
