 good book September 1, 2008
this book is easy to read and the recipes are very tasty even us grown ups enjoy it.
 Great easy ways to cook for a little person. August 27, 2008
I found this book so easy to follow. The recipes are quick and my 15 month toddler loves what I make out the book. I am not the best cook so easy and quick works for me. Plus my toddler is not patient.
 waste of money and depressing July 8, 2008
5 out of 5 found this review helpful
horrible, I would really love to know who these moms are that have all the time to make all this stuff. I am convinced they must have nannies or other major help. Many of the recipes have over an hour for prep time (3 1/2 hours prep time for beef stew anyone?) If I am going to spend that much time making something for my 15 month old, I would hope at least that they were recipes she would eat. About 3/4 of the stuff she wouldn't take more than a bite of. You will also go broke trying to get all the ingredients and fresh spices needed for these recipes. Just stressed me out. Use your hard earned money for a book that is actually useful!
 Recipie book April 17, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
So this recipie book gets points for lots of pictures and very interesting ideas for toddler and child foods. The only complaint that I had about the book was that they used A LOT of weird words for simple ingredients like: mangetout instead of snap peas. Can't you just say snap peas? I actually had to go online for some other ingredients as well. But over all she has some good recipies.
Lovin' It March 28, 2008

Am Lovin' this cookbook. Was a little hesitant to order another cookbook online without being able to look at it first, but the other reviews convinced me it was a good decision. And boy was it! This cookbook is awesome! Provides me with lots of new menu ideas vs. the redundant cheerios/yogurt for breakfast and turkey/cheese for lunch. (Not that there's anything wrong with those things). But I know my son is going to get burned out on the same stuff. And sometimes you just need a quick recipe on the nights when you're not into making a full-on dinner and little one is hungry.
The recipes are short & sweet, easy to follow and actually contain ingredients that are in your house already or are easy to obtain from your local grocery. Plus they're healthy! A nice combination of realistic cooking times and yummy food!
I didn't give this book a five star only because I think there could have been just a few more distinctive recipes for times of the day for the beginner with table food.
The book starts with information on Healthy Eating, Food-Combining, Essential Nutrients, and basic How-To's on feeding little ones. Even Coping with Feeding Problems, Managing Allergies and Sensible Shopping. A lot of info but designed to be read easily or you can choose to skip straight to recipes. Then the book is broken down into sections. The first section is baby's first foods- a variety of purees and cereals when first introducing baby to "solids". (ie- first rice flakes, carrot and potato puree, apple puree). Next, on to include a wider variety of pureed baby foods. (ie- chicken with rice and leeks, pork apple with parsnip and rutabaga, fresh peach yogurt). All home made, all healthy and best of all- easy to make. Then, for babies that are ready for soft lumps and first finger foods and on to mashed/chopped meals and finger foods. (ie- eggy toast fingers, macaroni cheese, pork with apples). Part three is for 1-2 year olds (ie- tuna pasta bake, first chicken nuggets, mini pitta pizzas). Finally, Part four is for 3-6 year olds (mini blueberry pancakes, apple and oat muffins, twice baked potato, chicken and corn pizza). There's everything from breakfast to dinner and all foods in between, including snacks, soups and drinks. There's even a section on cooking with your kids.
Another great feature is that under each recipe there's small icons that tell you at glance if the recipe is suitable for vegetarians, gluten-free, contains eggs or peanuts, ect. Also, many of the recipes can be modified for almost all age groups.
Indispensable for mommies and daddies of babies, toddlers and children!
