Millet Butternut Squash & Plum Puree [6m+]

Made this yummy millet butternut squash and plum puree while baby boy was sleeping.

Millet is not just for the birds. When you find out all the benefits of millet nutrition, you’ll want to include this grain-like seed in your own diet! It is also a great substitute to couscous. 🙂

MILLET IS FULL OF NUTRIENTS YOUR BODY NEEDS, SUCH AS

1. Magnesium
2. Calcium
3. Maganese
4. Tryptophan
5. Phoshorus
6. Fiber
7. B Vitamins
8. Antioxidants

Plums are seasonal fruit at the moment and it’s good for the bowl movement so why not. I served this for my boy in a reusable food pouch by NomNom (review is coming) and ChubChub PouchBuddy (see product review).
