Happy Baby Organics Hearty Meals Stage 3 Baby Food, Root Vegetables & Turkey with Quinoa, 4 Ounce (Pack of 16)

I love this baby food. The pouch makes it so easy to bring anywhere. I initially purchased these for having backup food in the diaper bag, but they are so good I will give them to my baby when I don't have the time or energy to make him something. I really like the beef stew because it has great ingredients, including quinoa. I love the Plum Organics brand, too, but the Happy Baby brand seems to add a little more (quinoa, whole wheat pasta) to their foods, creating a great texture for babies who are just past the simple puree stage. And most importantly, my baby gobbles these up--more so than my homemade foods.

Yummy, Yummy, in my daughter's tummy! Chick Chick is good, Beef Medley is better and this takes the cake!! All I hear is "yum" and "mmmmm" and of course I try every pouch before I feed her and WOW this stuff is good! I read the comments about fruit juice being one of the main ingredients and what is wrong with that? I don't give my kiddo any juice or sweets, so why not a little all natural fruit in here? better than high fructose corn syrup and all that other bad stuff the "other" companies put on their foods.Excellent buy and almost forgot- she doesn't wake up in the middle of the night with an upset or gassy tummy with this- she sleeps like a happy baby!!! :)

First of all, I'd say that this product tastes more like sweet potato than chicken. The white lumpy stuff in the package tastes like brown rice pasta than chicken. So I am not where the chicken is cuz you can't taste it. But my daughter absolutely loves it. She gobbles down the whole thing in minutes (except her teething time).Although I am skeptical about the chicken part, I have to trust the labeling that says heavy amount of protein is in there.I also tried the turkey and chicken training meal from Plum brand. It has way too much spice in there. Not for my baby who is just starting out on protein. I will try the Plum brand a bit later. But you can definitely taste the meat in their products.

I gave this flavor to my 6 month old son but he did not like it so I tried to blend it, but still no luck. It does have very strong taste especially for babies who had only veggie and fruit blends. So I mixed the blended beef stew with green beans ( 1,5 oz of beef stew with 3,5oz green beans ) and my baby ate it all no problem. I just think since he did not have any flavor like that before ( tomato, beef, spices ) he just need to get used to the flavor. Sweet peas works too and takes away that sharp tomato taste. I will keep adding less of the veggie blends and I bet he will get used to the taste in no time. So do not give up if your baby doesn't like it right away. I bet you as adults also had some meals first time and did not love it and now are enjoying them ( sushi, oysters..... ) so let your little one get used to new flavor.My son loved Chick chick and Super salmon right away but I think it is because he had sweet potato and carrots before so he was used to the flavor already.UPDATE: one week later I have split the packet in two containers and added 1oz. sweet peas and 1oz. carrots, and my baby ate it no problem, likes it a lot when warmed up.Week after that I just warmed up the packet and my son ate it no problem, loved it as much as chick chick or super salmon.So if you did not have luck first time do not give up, it took couple tries for us and now he loves it.

I try to feed my Great Pyrenees healthy food. For the most part she gets people grade food and organic when I can afford it. I use these Happy Baby Organic pouches to make treats. Following is the recipe:1 cup organic corn meal. 1 cup organic quick oats. 2 TBS olive oil. 1 tsp baking powder. 1 egg. 1 pouch Happy Baby. 1 TBS ground flax. 2 TBS organic whole milk powder. Add enough water to mix - consistency will be like cake mix. Spread in a greased 9x13 pan. Cook about 30-35 minutes at 350.

Not sure if any other parents are having issues with there order.My son is 11 month old and he has been eating this brand since he started solids. We never had problems with other orders before but this batch. The texture is spongy and is watery at 1st. I have tried to squeeze and shake it to mix it up but it doesn’t not seem like it works.My son would gage and is unable to swallow. Other times when we squeeze it the watery part would spill out of the pouch.Date is not expired.We will update with the next order.

Unfortunately they changed the recipe up on our baby....he looooooved this, it was a great trainer food as it was thicker now it's just runy like the chick chick one which we stopped buying. One taste of the new formula and baby turned up his nose and didn't want anymore....I was presistant and eventually the only way he'll eat it is with bread dipped in it or his veggie stix dipped in it and I have to sneak in spoonfulls here and there. It's just too runny for our baby boy now, he's older now but we still want to make sure he's getting salmon atleast once a week. This is the most convenient for us so we still give it to him at 20 months. I'm going to hunt down the original forumla's and stock up whenever I see them! Other than that, we are a 100% HappyBaby family and love all the wonderful products they continue to make!

This Beef Stew is fantastic! It actually tastes like beef stew, no artificial flavorings or colors. Everything in it is organic and there is quinoa too. Babies need to be able to taste what real food tastes like. This product delivers! All of the other baby beef stews taste like a mystery and loaded with extra "stuff" that babies do not need. It has great portable packaging for moms on the go. Great price too!
