Cook the brown rice according to the package directions.
Let cool for a few minutes, and then add the cooked rice to a blender, along with ½ cup water. Process until smooth, scraping down the sides as needed.
Add additional water as needed, 2 to 3 tablespoons at a time, to reach the desired consistency.
Transfer to a small bowl and let cool, and then serve or store until ready to use. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3 to 5 days or in the freezer for 4 to 6 months.
Starting baby with whole grains, instead of refined grains, helps train their taste buds, which increases the likelihood your child will choose and prefer whole grains when they are older. Brown rice makes an excellent first food for baby and can later be added to any number of proteins, veggies, and fruits for combination baby foods.
