This is exactly what I wanted in a baby food book. I wanted more longevity then the simple purees and I love the organic info and eating healthy. Lots of info in simple quick paragraph/pages. I don't need chapters and pages full of why you should feed/eat organics like most books do - bore you to death. I wouldn't have gotten the book if I didn't want to do organic. This one is precise, doesn't overdo the organic theories and just gives you the info you need to make the food. It gives recipes for up to ages 3 but really most of these recipes past 12 months are great for any kids 10 or younger - heck even adults. I have tried a few on my 8 year old (lentil soup, lemony rice, veggie lasagna, cherry coconut rice pudding) and she loves them. Me too! My 7 month old has had more then 10 recipes and they are great. Also, the items do not have to be organic if you can't afford them. The recipes are different but almost all of them have the items in a basic grocery store. All you need is a blender.
Chapter 1: ORGANICS 8 pages explaining what constitutes organic, what items are a must, what items are not as important, what items to get pesticide-free, when to get canned, frozen, fresh, How things will last in fridge/freezer.
Chapter 2: INTRO TO FEEDING Gives you a layout on when to start items, best times to introduce, watching for allergies, how long to wait to try new items, what items can cause constipation/diarrhea, food safety, sample kitchen equipment, etc...
Chapter 3: 4-6 months that are common sense but still needed to be written. When to mix with water or formula/breast milk. Most are one items for starting out but some are mixtures like banana pumpkin mash, pear mango puree, avocado and barley cereal.... Read more ›

I bought this book when my son was just getting into solid food. Lots of good ideas for food combinations that I hadn't thought of. Looks like there is enough to keep us going for a long time. The book inspired me to break away from the baby food jar and get out the food mill. Easy recipes.

This is a great cookbook. The introduction and information it gives on lactose intolerance, allergies, etc. is exactly what my pediatrician said. The recommendations are great and the recipes are good and easy.

I own so many baby & toddler cookbooks. I have always made my own organic baby food. Honestly, until probably 10 months you don't need a book because you can only try one new thing every few days - you've got to try them before you can combine them. This is the one book I wish I would have had when he was around 10 months. He loved organic lentils out of the jar (we used when traveling) but I had no good baby lentil recipes. This book provides a lot of vegatarian recipes that contain mostly things I already had on hand (had to buy coconut milk & flax oil). I was really happy to see several recipes using quinoa & lentils for protien sources - it's hard when my little guy only wants eggs & peanut butter for protien. I only wish they had some pictures.

I love this cookbook for my son. Ever since he started solid food, we have been feeding him only organic foods since it is better for you. So, when he got a little older, I had no idea as to what to make him. This cookbook solved my problem. A lot of the recipes are easy. I love too that it mentions substitutions for items such as milk because my son has a milk allergy. This really needs to be in every kids home!

I purchased this cook book to make home made baby food for my son when he started solids. Unfortunately the recipes for little ones are pretty basic and pretty much self explanitory. Meaning, a recipe was not needed to make any of them. It was just mashing up a fruit or a veggie. So I was disappointed in it. Now my son is older and I think the book is great! I am getting a lot more use out of it w/ him eating solid foods. I would reccommend a person buying it not as a baby food cook book but a toddler cook book.

this is an amazing book, I love it, not only provides good recipes but also gives you pointers on sugar substitutes, flour choices, what canned tomatoes are great (no bpa lining in their containers). I've learned a lot from this book and many of the recipes are wonderful. My sister in law read this book when she was visiting last week and she loved it so much I bought it for her too. An absolute must.

Overall I'm happy with the content of the book, my only recommendation would be that it be easier to turn to the pages for a particular age group, like color coding them, the edge of the recipe is already colored, why not make each age group a different color, any time saver like that is always helpful for busy caregivers.

Pretty good
Some of the recipes call for expensive materials, such as flax seed and Qinuoa, but other than that my daughter loved the food and they were very easy to make!
