Method
- In a cooking pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the ground turkey and cook until evenly browned, about 5-6 minutes. Make sure to stir occasionally.
- Once the turkey is cooked, add the zucchini and potato to the pot, followed by the chicken broth.
- Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat to low. Cover the pot and simmer for about 20 minutes, or until the vegetables are very tender.
- Remove the pot from heat and allow it to cool slightly for about 5 minutes.
- Transfer the mixture to a blender or food processor. Blend until you reach a smooth puree with some small lumps, or adjust the texture according to your baby's readiness for more texture.
- If desired, add a pinch of mild herbs for flavor and blend briefly to incorporate.
- Allow the puree to cool completely before serving. Serve in small portions appropriate for your baby.
