As much as we love our peas and carrots here at The Creative Kitchen, we understand it can sometimes be challenging to get tots and toddlers excited to eat their fruits and vegetables. Well fear no more! Our friends at NurturMe have a quick and healthy solution: their Fruits & Veggies dried organic baby food. Even if your child isn’t a baby anymore, their products can simply be stirred into any dish! Made from a quick dry processing method to ensure nutrients and natural flavor, these packets are a healthy and fast way to mix in more vegetables.
From the Mouth of a Baby:
We were unable to translate baby talk, but by the happy look on baby’s face, it seems like he’s enjoying his fruits and vegetables!
From the Eyes of a Parent:
I love the Fruits & Veggies packets because they’re easy to use for my newborn and my toddler alike. It’s quick and easy to mix a packet with milk or formula for a nutrient-packed treat for my tot. And for my older one, it’s just as simple to mix them into easy dishes like pasta, cereal, or even a smoothie.
Flavorful Features:
NurturMe Fruits & Veggies come in a box of 8 2.5-ounce servings, and are available in 6 flavors:
- Crisp Apples
- Sweet Bananas
- Crunchy Carrots
- Plump Peas
- Scrumptious Squash
- Hearty Sweet Potatoes
Each packet is equivalent to a 2.5-ounce jar of baby food.
The Icing on the Cake:
The powdered product is made of organic fruits and vegetables, along with organic anti-caking agents, making the powder gluten-free, non-GMO, BPA-free, and Kosher. They have no added salt, sugar, colors, or preservatives, and contain just 40-50 calories per serving. In addition, drying fruits or veggies preserves more phytochemicals and essential nutrients.
Good to Go?
Yes! The individual packets can be stashed anywhere for on-the go uses. Just mix with liquid or into favorite foods and serve!
Time to Eat?!
Use the packet to enhnce any meal for your infant (4+ months and up) through toddler! Or shake them up in one of one of NurturMe’s Eco Pouches, which are great for little tykes and little hands.
Mix It Up!
The Fruits & Veggies packets can add to any ordinary meal: add the apples and some cinnamon to yogurt; the bananas into a smoothie; the peas with butter and milk over pasta; the squash into mac ‘n’ cheese; the carrots into spaghetti Bolognese; or the sweet potatoes into pancake batter.
