Papaya!!!!

By North Star



To prepare a papaya (ensure it is fully ripened!), peel, de-seed and then mash into a consistency your baby will tolerate.

Some parents who have infants with sensitive tummies will give fruits a gentle steaming to help break down the sugars and fibers for easier digestion. If you feel this is the case for your infant, chunk the papaya and then steam for 5-10 minutes until very soft.

Ideas for serving Papaya to your Baby:

Mash and mix with banana and avocado
Make a Papaya, banana, yogurt smoothie
Mix papaya into chicken and rice for a tropical chicken dinner
