Pears, Carrots & Squash

Pears, carrots, and butternut squash?  Curious combination, I thought at first.  Turns out it's delicious, and was a great way to sneak in vegetables in a sweeter way!
1 cup butternut squash
1 pear
1 large bulk carrot (or about 1/2 cup of baby carrots)
1/4 cup unsweetened apple juice (or water if you prefer)

1. Peel and dice the squash, pear, and carrot.
2. Combine all ingredients in medium saucepan over medium heat.
3. Bring to a simmer, then cover and cook about 20 minutes until all are tender
4. Blend, puree, or mash as much as desired.


*Recipe found in a great book I've been enjoying, Blender Baby Food by Nicole Young.
