Gettin' Mushy

Baby food! Are you kidding? Nope. Plum Organics was created so babies could get healthy, organic, foods with flavor and as fresh as possible. But they're good for you at any age. Pack 'em plain for a quickie dose of healthy veggies, or mix in a recipe--the Super Greens with pasta (& wee bit o' parmesan) makes a great pesto. Or just use it as a dip with baby carrots or pita chips. The sweet potato is great mixed with brown rice, atop chicken or turkey, or for Sweet Potato Pancakes (yum! Recipe on website); opt for the pear & apple combo in lieu of a popsicle for a cool dessert treat. Find them in the freezer section--they're flash frozen to lock in freshness and nutrients. Under $4 for 2 4oz-packs; at fine health food groceries like Whole Foods, Wild Oats; check www.plumorganics.com for stores and more info.
