Taste: Superb! It almost tastes like apple sauce, sweet with a touch of sourness.

We all agree that organic food is the best for our babies and that organic food that tastes good is even better. Ella’s Kitchen Organic Carrots, Apples and Parsnips Stage 1 baby food is organic and delicious. Let’s talk about its packaging, taste and the nutritional value.

All Ella’s Kitchen baby food is packaged in eye catching easy to use pouches. The colors are bright and inviting. It is easy to take a pouch and squirt it into a baby’s bowl for feeding. The orange color of carrot, apple, parsnip food is exciting and makes you think yummy carrots right away!

The taste doesn’t taste like carrots though. It is more like a sweet apple sauce. Parsnip’s taste, in case you are worried about it, is undetectable, and that’s a good thing. Babies might question the taste of parsnip! However, the nutritional benefits of carrots, parsnips and apples are all there.

Talking about nutrition, everybody knows that carrots have loads of vitamin A that is good for your eyes. Your baby’s vision is still developing so carrots is the food you want to feed your little one.  Carrots are also rich in dietary fiber, antioxidants, and minerals.

Apples are high in fiber and antioxidants and the yummy apple sauce taste is irresistible. Apples are known to have all kinds of health benefits so your baby should regularly consume this healthy fruit.

Last but not least is parsnip.  Parsnip is very healthy for your baby too. They are related to carrots (look like them, actually, but parsnips are white in color) and have a buttery, slightly spicy sweet flavor when cooked. The flavor can be a little overwhelming if parsnip is to be eaten alone. Parsnip is very rich in potassium and high in dietary fiber.

It was a great idea to combine the two healthy root vegetables with a delicious and beneficial fruit. The outcome is a very yummy pure which is flavorful and nutritious. Your baby will enjoy it.
