Recipe yields approximately 6 Cups
Directions:
- Cook the quinoa according to the package
- Cook the sweet potatoes by boiling or baking
- Peel and chop mangos (if using frozen, skip this step)
- Add all ingredients except Quinoa to a blender and blend into a smooth puree.
- Add Quinoa to the blender and blend again until smooth. (You may need to add water to get a smooth, not-too-thick texture) .
- Line trays with parchment paper
- Pour baby food puree onto the tray and spread evenly across the trays
- Insert the dividers. You can also just powder after you freeze dry.
- Pre-freeze before freeze-drying when possible.
- Freeze Dry (My cycle time in a large freeze dryer with a premier pump was 57 hours for 5 trays of baby food)
- Store in sealed jars for short-term use or in mylar bags for long-term storage
Rehydration
Add about 4 tbsp of water to 2 cubes from the 40-portion dividers or about ¼ cup of freeze-dried baby food. Stir and enjoy
