When to Introduce: 8-10 months (always check with your pediatrician)

Stars: Mangos are loaded with Vitamin A and contain a higher level of carotenoids than almost any other fruit. And bananas contain potassium and fiber. Bananas are also high in Vitamin B6, Vitamin C and Vitamin B2.

Ingredients:
2 cups fresh or frozen mangoes, peeled and cubed
2 large fresh or frozen bananas, peeled  
1 1/2 cups whole milk (for babies under 1 year of age, substitute with breast milk or formula)

Directions: Throw all ingredients into a blender and puree until smooth.   

Servings: Fills about 3-4 Little Green Pouches

Modifications: Whole milk can be replaced with almond milk, soy milk or juice of your choice.

Notes: We especially love Emily's tip: "If there is leftover puree, add a shot or two of rum and the juice of 2 limes to the blender and blend up a daiquiri for yourself momma.  You deserve it!"
