Butternut Squash, Carrot & Sweet Potato Tots

This recipe is for 7+ months

When Zion was 7 months I was so nervous of feeding him any type of finger foods, nervous of him choking or stuffing his face, he wanted to hold his food so badly and I kept stopping him, this is when I created the butternut squash, carrot and sweet potato tots. They are perfect for those tiny hands learning how to self-feed. If you liked the broccoli, carrot, potato tots you will love these just as much and so will your baby!

They come out so soft, but just firm enough for baby to hold. These vibrant, tasty tots are probably one of my more flavorful ones, it has sweetness from the butternut squash and sweet potatoes and the carrot gives it a mild earthiness, while balancing it out. This is an excellent recipe when meal prepping for your little ones, they freeze well and when you are ready to serve just pop one in the microwave for a few seconds, cool and serve.

I didn’t add any seasoning, but if you’d like you can add cinnamon or cheese, but they really are good just on their own.
