February, one of the coldest months of winter, requires extra care when it comes to protecting your baby from illnesses that can arise during colder weather, and also calls for extra attention to nutrition.
While it’s important that the purees you prepare for your baby use organic, natural ingredients, the nutritional value of those ingredients is just as crucial. Protect your baby with the powerful combination of fish—rich in essential nutrients—and winter favorites like carrots and leeks.
Leek, known for its strong antioxidant properties, also helps protect heart and vascular health thanks to its mineral content. Packed with vitamins K, A, C, and B6, leeks contribute positively to bone and tissue development, supporting your baby’s growth.
Leek also contains a compound called lutein, known for protecting eye cells. Combined with the E vitamins found in carrots, this vegetable blend offers numerous benefits for visual and brain development—especially when paired with fish.

Instructions:
Boil 1–2 cups of water in a medium saucepan. Place a steam basket over the boiling water. Add the chopped carrots, leeks, and fish to the steam basket.

You can store this puree in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, or in the freezer for up to 2 months. While this recipe can be introduced after your baby turns 7 months old, always consult your pediatrician before introducing fish or other new foods to your baby.
