Great resource
I purchased this book when my son was 5 months old and we were just starting him on solids. We had a lot of success using it. At the time, I was not a great cook but could follow a recipe. I welcomed the advice on how long to steam a vegetable before pureeing and what fruits would taste good when mixed together. My son loved the recipes and has since become an excellent eater. Even our day care provider comments on what a good eater he is and how she believes it was because of all the great foods we made for him as a baby. You should consult your doctor on some things like the red berries, etc. but we lived on this book for the first few months after we introduced food and had no side effects from using butter or anything else. I even bought another Annabel karmel book, Superfoods, and still continue to refer to it to cook for my now almost 2 year old. I highly reccommend this to any new mom.
Delicious recipes for baby (and parents)
I've been making baby food from the recipes in this book since my son was 6 months old. So far, I've made about 15 of the recipes and all of them have turned out to be extremely tasty. I love how the recipes are divided into age groups.
My son is now 10 1/2 months old and just becoming accustomed to solids with thicker textures that require chewing, so over the weekend I made the Pasta Risotto recipe. It was easy, fast, and amazingly delicious. I really couldn't believe how good it tasted (I'm going to make a bigger batch for myself this next weekend). My favorite, though, is the fried banana with orange juice and butter recipe. I would have never thought of something so simple but so GOOD.
This book has taught me basic cooking skills and how to make amazing, diverse food for the baby. Highly recommended.
Great book!
This is a great book. We made our own baby food for the first year and our baby loved all the different recipes from this book. I highly recommend it if you plan on making your own baby food.
Can't Wait!
Can't wait until my little one is big enough to eat some of the recipes in this book. They look easy and yummy.
Great book
