You’re finally ready to take the solid-food step with your little one but you’re worried less about the mess--and it will be messy--and more about what to feed her. You’d love food that is fresh and organic, but does that combo exist on store shelves? Actually, it does!

Plum Organics, the leading frozen organic baby food, offers health-conscious parents 12 USDA organic-certified fruit, vegetable and protein-based meals for little ones age 6 months to 12 months and older. The food is flash frozen to retain the most nutrients, flavor and texture and come in two 4-oz. resealable, microwavable containers. From sweet potatoes for those new to solids to black bean tomato ragout for seasoned eaters, you’ll find something to please even the pickiest palette.

Newer varieties are fortified with 20mg DHA, a good source of Omega-3's and a contributor to eye and brain development. Though the food may be messy, the packaging isn’t. Plum Organics’ baby cups are 100% BPA free; the inner tray is biodegradeable (made from annually renewable resources; oven and microwave safe); and the outer carton is made from 100% recycled paperboard. You can find Plum Organics in the freezer section of Whole Foods and Super Target stores nationwide. - Emily H.
