Let’s learn some recipes to make avocadoes
into nutritious dishes for babies.
Do you know that avocadoes are the best foods
for babies to start eating?
Avocadoes not only contain the essential
amount of fiber, vitamin, iron, potassium and other minerals for the healthy
developments of babies, but also a kind of fruit that suits the tastes of the
majority of baby. Another advantage of avocadoes is that they don’t need
cooking: they just need a few preparations and you can feed babies with them
right then. Moreover, avocadoes can be combined with other foods, such as
grains, vegetables and other fruits. Therefore, the avocado is the no.1 choice
among foods that babies who are 4-6 months old can start eating with.
Babies
should start eating with avocadoes.

with some drops of lemonade so that it can maintain the natural color. Then put
the avocado in the refrigerator.
