Paleo for Toddlers: Green Applesauce


I came up with this idea one day when trying to figure out how to get more dark leafy greens into my toddlers.  I had been making green smoothies for myself and remembered how you really can't taste the spinach at all in them.  Thus, green applesauce was born!  There are two ways you can do this.  First, you can put unsweetened applesauce and fresh spinach in a blender and blend.  This works well if you have a decent blender.  The way I made this batch was different, however.  I did not have any unsweetened applesauce in the house, but I did have apples!  I peeled and cored 2 apples and put them in the food processor with approx. 2 cups of fresh spinach.  This technique made a slightly chunkier end product but since by baby boys are not infants anymore and used to table food, they ate it right up!
