Baby Food: Root Veggie Trio

Root Veggie Trio

The natural sweetness of these root vegetables (parsnips, sweet potatoes, and carrots) make this a great puree to introduce to your baby after introducing individual vegetable purees. Don’t have babies anymore? Prepare roasted root veggies instead!

Sweet Potato Streusel Pie

Sweet Potato Streusel Pie

There is nothing I look forward to more on my Thanksgiving plate than a big helping of candied sweet potatoes. Over the years, my mom and I have come up with several iterations of the classic, marshmallow-topped concoction, but when I moved to North Dakota, a friend brought the casserole version of this sweet potato streusel pie recipe to our Turkey Day potluck, and I’ve been hooked ever since.

Sweet Potato Spice Muffins

Sweet Potato Spice Muffins

This recipe, which mocks the fall-favorite pumpkin muffin, is a favorite for my family and was a good way to introduce/sneak in/use up sweet potatoes in the mouths of my young and older babes.

Mexican Pork and Sweet Potato Stew

Mexican Pork and Sweet Potato Stew

“Easy peasy chicken breezy” I must have heard that phrase 50 times today. I’m up working in Montana for work for a few days and I love it. It’s a different place up here but a good different. As I sit here in the hotel room it’s comforting knowing that my boys had a great meal tonight for dinner even though I was no where to be found. They are munching on this stew. I premade it this weekend so all my husband had to do was dump it in the crockpot and press on as he left and tackled the daycare/school drop off today. I hope you enjoy it and are able to use some of those green chiles you see popping up in stores! It is so simple it’s “easy peasy pork breezy”.

Sweet Potato Casserole

This is holiday family favorite. I remember, as an adult, when I discovered I could make it other times of the year other than Christmas and Thanksgiving. Novel concept I know. It is great for fall and especially as you start seeing yams and sweet potatoes go on sale.

Fall Vegetable Mashers: (4+ months)

One of the first foods I ever made for Shep was mashed sweet potatoes. He would finish two cubes and then bang on his tray for more! Below is the very simple recipe I made him, plus squash for a little Autumn-ness.

Fall is a great time to prepare sweet potatoes for your little one! They are most commonly on the greatest sale in late November. Remember you can store frozen cubes in freezer bags for several months. Feel free to make them ahead!
