POTATO & CHEESE DINNER (FOR BABIES)
This is for babies 6 months and up. It is just like cheesy potatoes...but for babies. My DH could smell this when I first made it and wondered what I was making for dinner. I told him it was for the baby, he seemed disappointed. It tastes pretty good, so I probably could have given him some too! I use a pinch of dry minced onion, instead of the onion. I also used breastmilk/formula instead of the milk.

POTATO AND CHEESE DINNER (BABY FOOD)
This recipe is intended to be for babies 6 months or older (based on what your pediatrician recommends.) I portion baby food into ice cube trays and then store in freezer bags for up to six weeks. Two cubes satisfied my seven month old for a meal. Making your own baby food is a little time consuming, but it is worth! Have peace of mind knowing your baby is getting the freshest and healthiest food possible!

Tips:
- Choose the right potatoes: For this recipe, it's best to use Yukon Gold or Russet potatoes, as they are soft and cook quickly.
- Cook the potatoes thoroughly: Make sure the potatoes are cooked all the way through before mashing them. You can test this by inserting a fork into the center of a potato; if it comes out clean, the potato is cooked.
- Use a potato ricer: A potato ricer will help you achieve a smooth and fluffy mashed potato. If you don't have a potato ricer, you can use a fork or potato masher, but the results may not be as smooth.
- Add the cheese gradually: When adding the cheese to the mashed potatoes, do it gradually and stir constantly. This will help prevent the cheese from clumping together.
- Season to taste: Once the cheese is melted, taste the mashed potatoes and season them with salt and pepper to taste.
Conclusion:
This potato cheese dinner is a quick and easy meal that is perfect for busy weeknights. It is also a great way to get your baby to eat more vegetables. The potatoes are a good source of carbohydrates and fiber, while the cheese is a good source of protein and calcium. This dish can be served with a variety of sides, such as roasted chicken, steamed broccoli, or a simple green salad.
