3. Creamy Cauliflower and White Bean Puree with Mild Garlic

Cauliflower and white beans are blended with mild garlic. Place cooked white beans and mild garlic into a blender or food processor.

4. Creamy Sweet Potato and Avocado Mash with Ginger

Sweet potato and avocado are mashed together with a little ginger. Transfer the cooked sweet potatoes to a mixing bowl or blender.

5. Classic Creamy Sweet Corn and Potato Puree with Mild Chives

Sweetcorn and potato are blended into a creamy puree with chives. Transfer potatoes and corn to a blender or food processor.

6. Creamy Butternut Squash and Apple Puree with Gentle Cinnamon

Butternut squash and apple are pureed with cinnamon. Transfer both the roasted squash and cooked apple (including cooking water) to a blender or food processor.

7. Velvety Lentil and Cauliflower Hummus Dip

Lentils and cauliflower are blended into a smooth hummus-style dip. Cook the lentils and steam the cauliflower before blending, reserving a little lentil liquid to adjust the consistency.

Choose what to make

Compare the bean and lentil purees with the fruit-and-vegetable combinations. The avocado mash differs from cooked squash puree; add liquid gradually to reach the texture you need.
