What is the difference between strained food and pureed food?!
My 7 month daughter is ready for stage 2 foods. I love making her pureed food, but now I'm reading that the stage 2 food is strained instead of pureed. I can't seem to find what the difference is in it.

Strained would be a little chunkier than pureed. If you are making her food, try pushing it through a colander rather than running it through a food processor. Back when I made my kids baby food I used my conical strainer that I used for canning jellies.
You can try running it through the food processor and just not run it until it is pureed, but be sure to check it thoroughly to make sure there are no large chunks left.
