Preparation

Step 1

Brown rice powder: 1 cup of uncooked brown rice grains (you can use whichever kind of rice you prefer). Blend the grains a few at a time in a food processor or blender. If you wish for it to be very fine, use a coffee/herb grinder.

Step 2

Bring water to boil, then add rice powder, stirring constantly with a whisk. Reduce heat to very low and simmer for 10 mins, stirring frequently.

Step 3

Add the desired amount of breast milk or formula to get the consistency you desire for your child.

Step 4

Spinach purée: simply steam some spinach leaves until just softened. You don't want to take all the goodness out of them.

Step 5

Purée the spinach in a blender or food processor, then add some water to get a nice smooth consistency.

Step 6

If your baby is old enough, you can spice it up with some garlic or other herbs from your pantry!

​

You don't have to mix the brown rice and spinach purees, they are each very good on their own.
