DIY Baby Rice & Oatmeal

I didn't get to breastfeed Haidyn as long as I would have liked, so in part of my guilt I've made it my priority to make her food. It's important to me that I know what is going into her body to help her grow and thrive. I have a ton of rice stocked at home at all times, so why not make my own rice cereal? Also, I always have oatmeal so of course I made  her, her Oatmeal too! I don't spend extra money on her food because it's what I already have and use daily.

Ingredients: 

1. Rice - I use organic brown rice. 
2. Oatmeal

Directions: 

1. Take rice ( start with a 1/4 cup) and grind in a food processor. - I used our bullet.
