Product Description
Parents today know that one of the best ways to give a baby a great start in life is with wholesome, homemade foods. While ready-made baby food is a convenience that any new parent can appreciate, feeding everyday fresh foods is the best way to teach a child healthy eating habits and an appreciation for good food from the cradle onward. The 80 recipes in Cooking for Baby make preparing delicious meals for babies and toddlers a breeze, even for busy parents. The recipes are organized by age, showing how to introduce cereal grains and simple vegetable and fruit purees to your infant at 6 months, how to move on to chunkier foods by 8 or 9 months, and how to graduate to real meals for young toddlers of 12 to 18 months to enjoy along with the entire family. When you see how easy it is, with a few smart tips on preparation and storage, you'll never go back to the jars. With Cooking for Baby, your youngster will enjoy a wide variety of fresh and interesting foods for a very happy and healthy beginning.

cooking for baby March 4, 2009 jcs (bloomington, in) 31 out of 31 found this review helpful
This book has great recipes, and it's well written. What I like the most about this book is that it starts simple with one-ingredient purees, and gradually introduces recipes that have more texture and use the same ingredients that the baby has already had. Before each section of the book (e.g., 6 months, 7-8 months, 9-11 months, etc), there is some good information about food choices, textures, quantities, and similar, that I found useful... I have read many baby food books, and I believe that this one is one of the better ones. Highly recommend it.
Destined to become a classic! July 29, 2009 Kimberly C. Hopkins (Texas) 19 out of 19 found this review helpful
This book should be given to all new parents! Excellent organization according to baby age, easy-to-read format, beautiful photos. Includes great lists such as what foods are easiest for baby to digest, which foods might cause gas, and which foods are best introduced when baby is a bit older. Great tips on storing and freezing food. Love that each recipe has side notes about specific foods. This is the best common-sense, organic, healthy approach to feeding your child...don't hesitate to buy it!
Great Recipes November 12, 2009 Gamer091 (Redondo Beach, CA) 13 out of 13 found this review helpful
I bought this book since I was planning to cook at home for my daughter and I needed some ideas. This book is excellent for the following reasons:
- Separates food introduction by ages:
6 months
7-8 months
9-11 months
12-18 months
- Recipes are simple to follow(believe me I am not an expert on cooking and I was able to make it) and above all they are healthy.
- Tips on food introduction, finger foods and alerts on possible food allergies.
The recipes are really yummy and I even tried some of the recipes myself.
Fantastic purchase!!! November 6, 2009 E. Avery (Knoxville, TN) 7 out of 7 found this review helpful
I was looking for a way to feed my son with allergies without feeding him the foods he was allergic to. I came across this book and not only are the pictures amazing but there are tips on why certain types of food are offered later and some earlier. I have yet to come across anything in this book that my son won't eat! The best part is now he feels like he's eating what mommy & daddy eat since I'm not just opening a jar to feed him from.
Love this book! June 25, 2009 CB 6 out of 6 found this review helpful
I received this book as a gift with a baby food cooker for my 3rd child, and I wish I had it for the first two. The philosophy is to introduce all sorts of flavors to baby so that they get used to a wide variety of foods. The recipes are grouped by baby's age, and there are descriptions about the benefits of the foods introduced. There are also easy to follow directions on how to cook in bulk and freeze the leftovers for future use. My 6 month old had zucchini and apricots for dinner tonight. My other two never ate so well!
