It is a little known fact that I have a serious addiction to Palisade Peaches. As soon as the snow melts and the grass shines green I wait with bated breath for that wonderful nectar to come in to season. I buy them in bulk and eat them with every meal in order to not waste a single one. Thankfully, Sofia seems to have acquired this odd addiction to freshly ripened fruit. So in honor of the harvest and all the yummy peaches the farmers market has to offer here's a fabulous recipe I found for you try on your little one. And of course feel free to get a bowl for yourself as well. Thanks to One Hungry Mama for another fabulous recipe!
Roasted Cherry (or Grape) Tomatoes and Peach
(can be served to kids 10+ mos)*
2 pints organic cherry tomatoes
2 large or 3 small peaches, peeled and roughly chopped into 1 1/2″ pieces
4 tbsp organic olive oil
OR
1/3 cup organic olive oil, if you plan on using the oil in your final dish
salt
1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. In the meantime, clean and dry tomatoes. Place in an oven safe dish with peaches, oil and salt (just a little if serving to beginner eaters, a healthy amount for extra flavor if serving to older kids and adults).
2. Roast for 45 minutes. Serve or store in fridge in a covered container with the cooking oil for up to 5 days.
Note: If you are taking a more more liberal approach to introducing solids, you can feel free to feed this to babies as young as 6 months. Just be sure to pick out tomato skins and mash thoroughly.
