Save $$ And Baby Eats Better with BeaBa BabyCook

My mother purchased a Beaba BabyCook for me and I've had it for a couple of days. I really wanted to do a review on this product because I think it's phenomenal.

The BabyCook is a baby food processor, but not only does it blend, but it steams too. I was a little intimidated when I took it out of the box because I had never made baby food before. I never did that for my first one. I intended to, but life got in the way.

The Beaba BabyCook does all the work for you. You just pour in some water, put the diced fruit OR veges in the steamer and turn it on. Then when it's done in about 10-15 minutes, you blend them together. So easy. Then the clean-up is a breeze too. You just rinse it out. It can go in the dish washer on the top rack if you wish, or if you are like me, just rinse it and re-use. Yesterday, I made baby food for two weeks in less than an hour. But the best thing was, it didn't take that much thought or work. All I did was toss some food in there and then come back when it was done and blend. I was amazed by how easy it was.

I also purchased this silicon ice cube maker to go with the Beaba BabyCook and I would recommend getting it too. It makes things alot easier when storing and allows you to store the baby food for weeks. So what I did was make all the baby food, then I poured it in the ice cube makers, froze them in the freezer, then popped them out and put them in a freezer bag. Now I just take one out of the freezer bag when I need baby food and stick it in the microwave for 20 seconds and it's ready. So easy.

Okay, here is another great reason to get one. You will actually save money. Yes, the Beaba is expensive, about $150 depending on where you get it. But if you make the food at home, you won't have to purchase anything you aren't shopping for anyway. Think about it, you purchase fruit and veges from the market anyway every week, why not just purchase a little bit more and feed them to your baby? They will get better nutrition with more minerals and vitamins and you will end up saving money.

The product also comes with some baby food recipes that are really easy. I made apples & oranges, then veges with green beans, potatoes & tomatoes. Let me know if you have one OR if this review helped you any.

I have always made my own baby food, it's so easy and much better for them! I have to say I've always just used the regular food processor so I could make larger batches and ice cube trays, but I Love the storage container you're showing here..... looks much better than ice cube trays :)
