Healthy homemade baby food - soybeans and pineapple

Soybeans are healthy in moderation for little ones. My son has loved them since he was a baby (mashed) and still love them now (whole). According to the United Soybean Board, 64 clinical research studies show that soy protein directly lowers cholesterol levels and improves other lipids in children. Soybeans also provide high-quality protein without the high levels of saturated fat found in many meats. Pineapple is also healthy. While it is a little high in sugar, it's also a decent source of Dietary Fiber, Thiamin, Vitamin B6 and Copper, and a very good source of Vitamin C and Manganese.

Soybean & pineapple baby food: Boil one cup of frozen shelled organic soybeans for about 5 minutes. Puree or mash soybeans with 1/2 cup crushed pineapple. You can use canned or fresh pineapple.
