Method
- In a pot, combine the diced sweet potato, rinsed lentils, and vegetable broth. Bring to a boil over medium heat, then reduce to a simmer.
- Cover and cook for about 20-25 minutes, or until both the sweet potatoes and lentils are very soft, stirring occasionally.
- Once cooked, remove from heat and let it rest for 5 minutes.
- Using a blender or food processor, blend until desired smoothness is achieved. For a thicker texture, blend less.
- If desired, stir in olive oil and a pinch of cinnamon for extra flavor.
- Allow to cool to a safe temperature before serving to your baby.

Notes
As you prepare this meal, feel free to experiment with different ratios of sweet potato to lentils based on your baby's taste preferences.
If your little one is ready for a bit of variety, try adding finely chopped spinach or other soft vegetables.
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days or freeze portions for later use.
Reheat gently on the stove or in the microwave, adding a little water if needed to smoothen the texture.
Happy cooking!
