Pea and zucchini puree

Serves:

Ingredients

• 1 small zucchini
• 1 cup of frozen peas
• 1 tbsp mashed potato, optional

Method

Wash and cut the ends off the zucchini, and cut into small pieces.

Bring a small saucepan of water to boil on a stove.

Add the peas and zucchini and cook until soft, around 5 minutes.

Puree together in a blender until smooth.

If it’s a little too lumpy for your child, push through a sieve to remove the zucchini and pea skins that haven’t been pureed.

Stir in the mashed potato, if desired.
