Soybean Delight
Ingredients
1 cup dry soybeans
3 cups water
Formula, milk or breast milk
Directions
Soak the soybeans in water overnight. Drain. Combine the soybeans and 3 cups water in a large pot. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low and simmer for about two hours. Place in a blender and puree until smooth, adding formula, breast milk or milk to get desired consistency.
Suggestions
For older babies, stir 1/4 cup shredded soy cheese into hot soybeans. Let cool. Babies who have teeth and are chewing well would also enjoy snacking on the soybeans without pureeing. Watch Baby carefully to avoid choking.
