Baby Food Pasta --
Ingredients
2 cups flour
1/2 cup baby food
cold water
flour
Directions
1) By Hand: Put flour into a mixing bowl making a well in the center for the baby food!. Incorporate flour into baby food by mixing in the well slowly pulling in the flour!. If using a Kitchen aide mixer use the dough mixer and it will do this for you!. You should get a ball after a while!. It should feel like play dough!. If it does not start to ball you may need to add more water!. If it is too sticky add more flour!.
2) By Food Processor: Put flour into a food processor bowl add the wet ingredients and 1 tsp oil to the flour in the food processor!. Turn on the processor and mix until ingredients are evenly distributed!. Mixture will be sandy and crumbly!. With the processor running, add another 1 Tbsp cold water through a feed tube!. At this stage the mixture should start coming together into a ball!. If you are not getting a ball after 30 seconds of mixing, open the processor and squeeze a chunk of dough with your fingers!. If it comes together and feels like play dough, it's done!. If not, restart the processor and drizzle in a little more water, 1 tsp at a time!.
3) Turn the dough out onto a work surface and gather into a ball!. Knead for 8 minutes!. The dough should be soft, pliable, and slightly tacky, but not sticky!. It should not stick to the work surface or your hands!. If it sticks, add a little flour and continue kneading!. Don't short cut this step!. Kneading is what develops gluten and makes your dough elastic and workable later!.
4) Let dough rest 1 or more hours!.
5) If you have a pasta machine divide the dough into thirds and follow the directions for your pasta machine!.
6) If you are making it by hand roll out very thin and cut as desired!.
7) Dry!. Remember when you go to cook it, fresh pasta only takes a couple minutes to cook!. The longer it is dried the longer it needs to cook!.

I bought a baby food grinder at Babies R us for $9!. It ground up EVERYTHING from meat, chicken, etc, to cooked veggies!. It kept all the stringy stuff in the bottom underneath the hand crank!. You ground it into a bowl, the stringy stuff was on the bottom then you added liquid to your desired consistency!. My kids never ate jarred food!.!.!.they ate what we ate!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
Meat!.
Babies LOVE meat!.
And we need to raise more carnivores to shout down PETA!.
My mama fed me mashed potatoes when I was 3 weeks old!.
I did the same with my kids adding peas and carrots!.
Applesauce and cereal fortified with formula works as fast food!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

You don't even have to use a grinder if you are just feeding veggies and fruit!. Cook them until they are soft- boiling or microwaving keeps the most nutrients and then mash and add water to the desired consistancy!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
my mom use to steam zuccini and carrots till they are really soft and then stick them in the blender (no peel on zuccini) also she would just scrap the banana with a spoonWww@FoodAQ@Com
Use a food proccesor!. I would mainly feed pureed fruits and veggies!. And mushed beans!. Www@FoodAQ@Com
