Notes

To make zucchini into a snack, mash it. This type of vegetable is soft, flavorless, and packed with a lot of nutrients. This makes it an excellent snack for babies, especially when prepared with a pesto sauce. Just remember not to leave your baby unsupervised while you are cooking, and always remember to serve small portions. It is important to remember to keep the food portion small so your baby does not choke on it.
