Gourds are yummy

Audrey loves, I mean, LOVES pumpkin! The girl is all about it! Pureed pumpkin is her new favorite food. She likes it plain, she likes it with a dash of cinnamon, and she likes it blended with a little fork mashed butternut squash. We are gourdarific these days! :) I have some acorn squash I need to make soon and I'm hoping she'll like that too. Normally to make the acorn squash I just cut it in half, spoon out the seeds and bake the halves in the oven with a little brown sugar and butter. Sometimes I also add some chopped pecans....once it's done I just scoop out the tender pulp, discard the "shell" and we eat. I will probably do half with the pecans and half without...for Audrey.

Audrey also loves steamed brocolli florets. They are a great finger food for her and she eats a ton of them....and the best part, is they are a steam and eat food. They require very little work on my part!
