Beetroot potato puree for 6 months baby makes a yummy meal for babies after the completion of six months.
After introducing the veggie puree separately, 2 or 3 veggies can be combined together to make a yummy meal. Already I have posted potato puree for baby recipe, this is an interesting potato baby puree combinations, the reason why I combined both is that the fiber in the beet will compensate for the gaseous tendency of potato.
Please don’t forget to follow the 3 Day Rule before starting any new food, in this case, please ensure that you have already given beetroot and potato separately before combining them together.
