It blends well with root vegetables like carrot and sweet potato . This would make a good first chicken puree. You can leave out the peas and if you like you could add a small chopped apple with the carrot and sweet potato. Chicken blends well with fruits and babies like the naturally sweet flavour that fruit. Frozen vegetables are frozen within hours of being picked thus locking in all the nutrients so its fine to use ingredients like frozen peas when making your baby’s puree. For older babies you can finely chop rather than puree this and mix it with some cooked rice.
