Whats in the Bag

It takes more time and a great deal of work but I am really enjoying cooking for two. I also love knowing that Junior is now getting food that is good for him. A bonus in all of this is that I am finding myself making much better food choices as I research Junior's nutrition needs. A new journey where we are both eating much healthier foods and finding that eating better means feeling better.

Instead of a formula that was 53% corn syrup solids this bag now holds bean and rice soup, a wide variety of vegetables, and rice milk(for thinning). He also gets an afternoon feeding and gets his fruits during that time.
This is his overnight feed so the bag is only hanging like this for the picture.

Here is his bag prepared for the night(it is surrounded by ice packs to prevent spoiling)

It's a great feeling, isn't it! :) I remember the absolute joy I got out of making Emily's blenderized diet. Hopefully one day she will be able to tolerate feeds again, as I would love to go back to this. I am thrilled that it is working so well for Junior!

I'm hearing more and more about a blenderized diet, but frankly I'm clueless. Any tips?

I just left two reference blogs on a post (2nd down). I'm impressed with how you show it - easy to understand. Also, I am shocked at the formula being 53% corn syrup solids.
