Where to get vegetables for mashed potatoes

Children's menu requires special care in choosing products. For example, imported vegetables are better to bypass the side. Store our recommendations:

• Vegetables, like the other products, should be only the highest quality.
• Ideal food for baby - grown in their own farm.
• No vegetable garden or cottages - buy everything you need, in the market of grandmothers- "private traders".
• For feeding in winter and spring, use frozen vegetables.
• Small children eat very little, so all the vegetables on the winter spring will fit even in a small freezer, and you will not find a home zucchini in March.
