Sweet Potatoes and Chickpeas, please! #babyfood #recipe

Now that our guy is a few months into solid feeding, we are getting into combination foods. This is something that I really loved doing with Owen, and it was great to know that at one sitting he could experience two, three or sometimes four different flavors and foods all at once.

One thing that I never thought to give him were chickpeas. Back in the fall, I was searching Pinterest for some ideas and came across one that used chickpeas as one of the ingredients. I got thinking about all of the different things that I could mix together, essentially making baby hummus, and came up with this awesome baby food recipe.



Preheat your oven to 350F. Peel your sweet potato, chop into chunks, and put into a baking or casserole dish. Add 1/2" of water to your casserole dish and put the lid on.

Roast for approximately 45minutes to an hour, or until the flesh of the sweet potato is tender. Allow to cool slightly in the pan, then put into your food processor or blender.

Add canned chickpeas and blend until smooth, using the water from your roasted sweet potatoes to thin as needed.

Yield 42 cubes
