Baby Food Chopping Tips
• Always consult your pediatrician on appropriate foods for your
child's age.
• Precook meats completely.
• For a smoother consistency, steam or boil hard fruits and vegeta-
bles for approximately 10–20 minutes or until tender.
General Chopping Tips
• The bowl has a capacity of 3 cups (750 ml). For liquid ingredients,
do not exceed 1 3/4 cups (425 ml) (MAX LIQUID FILL line on
bowl).
• For more control, process by pressing the LO or HI Pulse button
briefly, then releasing. Check consistency and continue if desired.

• Cool cooked foods thoroughly and chop into small pieces.

Adjust chopping time accordingly.
• Precut vegetables into 1-inch (2.5 cm) chunks and place in bowl.
