I'm making first vegetable puree but not sure which to pick. What's the easiest tolerated, safest vegetable?

Carrot, sweet potato, or squash are the most commonly chosen first vegetables. Of these, squash is usually easiest - low fiber, mild taste, very low allergy risk. Carrot is good but slightly higher natural sugar; sweet potato is fiber-rich, which can cause gas in some babies. Whichever you choose, start with one vegetable, cook thoroughly into puree, and offer only that for 3-4 days while watching for reactions.
