Notes

• Kiwi fruit and strawberry can be saved for when baby is older
• Our grandson loves a few freshly picked wild blackberries
• If purchasing Almond Milk remember to buy unsweetened, non additive milk
• From a safety point of view also remember to chop baby's fruit into bite size pieces, including blueberries, to avoid choking
• As mentioned in Recipe #1 only feed almond milk and other nut products to your baby after testing them for allergies
