Tofu Pumpkin Rice Dinner for Babies (8 months+)

Preparation

1. 1

   Peel and deseed pumpkin, removing stringy pieces, and steam until fully fork-tender.

2. 2

   Use fully cooked soft rice; three tablespoons refers to cooked rice, not dry rice. If starting dry, cook separately according to its packet first.

3. 3

   Check plain tofu packaging for soy and additives; heat the soft tofu thoroughly as the package directs.

4. 4

   Blend or mash tender pumpkin, cooked rice and warm soft tofu together with safe water until moist, smooth and spoonable, without compact sticky rice or firm tofu pieces.

5. 5

   Stir in optional olive oil, cool to feeding temperature and follow strict rice cooling rules for untouched portions.
