Rice Balls

Since the twins are 9 1/2 months I have mainly been giving them finger food/table food, it is so much cheaper than buying the 3rd foods! I like to come up with good finger foods for them because it is so much easier for me to put food on their trays and then I can feed Cameron too, or do dishes quick.  Here is a recipe for what they had for dinner last night.

Baby Rice Balls

1/2 cup cooked brown rice
1/2 pound cooked ground turkey
10 carrotts
water - as needed

1) puree rice until the is an almost paste-like consistency
2) add turkey to the mixture and puree a little bit more
3) add carrots to the mixture and puree a little bit more

I added some water as needed, but you don't want to add too much or it will get to runny, you really want to maintain that paste-like consistency.

4) chill mixture for about an hour
5) shape into little balls and serve, you can heat if desired. 

The food is very clingly so sticks to fingers great, makes a little bit of a mess if babies smash it with their fingers, but great practice for them!
