apple+banana brown rice cereal

Made some apple puree to feed baby r on Wednesday. added 2 extra apples to make more purees as i wanted to create variations baby r! kept 2 little containers for the next day's brown rice cereal! for the morning i added bananas to the apple puree! i reduce the amount of apple puree and banana as baby r won't be able to finish it and it would be too much fruits in the cereal! i used 1+half chinese soup spoon of cereal. at 7 months old, thats a good amount of cereal with puree that baby r is able to finish for now. she liked it and finished the cereal really quickly! she finished 2 bottle of apple and pear drink by afternoon!


Apple is an effective cleansing tool for the body! Pectin, a form of fibre found in apples binds with cholestrol and toxins, speeding their excretion. Apples can help to ease allergic reactions and inflammatory conditions such as arthritis and it also helps the body to use energy efficiently. Apples can also help to improve lung function!

Banana contain high levels of B-vitamins which the body needs to produce energy. Vit B5 aids the formation of the immune system's killer cells and B6 which improves the body's ability to clear away waste matter. Bananas are also a good source of Vit C and manganese which works together to produce virus-fighting substances interferon. Its also dense in fibre and potassium which regulates body fluids and nerve function.
