5.0 out of 5 stars The Best Baby Food Book I Bought!, November 30, 1999

By	L. Stabler (Marietta, GA USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: The Well-Fed Baby: Easy Healthful Recipes for the First 12 Months (Paperback)

I had planned to make my own baby food, so I bought several books on the subject. This book was by far the best one of the lot. It gives clear, concise guidelines for what foods to feed babies at different ages, done in bulleted lists that make the book very easy to read. The recipes are fairly simple and don't use alot of esoteric ingredients like many of the other baby cookbooks. Overall, this is the best laid out and most informative baby food book out there. A great buy for anyone interested in cooking their baby's food.

2.0 out of 5 stars USE WITH CAUTION, September 21, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: The Well-Fed Baby: Easy Healthful Recipes for the First 12 Months (Paperback)

There is some confusing and questionable advice in this book. For instance, it's commonly held that babies shouldn't have cow's milk before the age of one year, yet there are many recipes in here that call for 2 cups or more of cow's milk for 6-month-olds! Also, there are recipes that call for "brown rice", again for six-month-olds, with no explanation as to whether they mean cooked brown rice, like Uncle Ben's, or if there's an infant brown rice cereal (I've never seen it). There are even some recipes that recommend citrus for young babies, but I've read you should wait until at least a year to introduce citrus fruits. This may be a decent recipe book for older babies, but I don't intend to use it for my beginning eater.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not really what I needed, February 24, 2003

By	Kendra J. Hoffman "Kendra" (Chaska, MN USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: The Well Fed Baby: Healthy, Delicious Baby Food Recipes That You Can Make at Home (Paperback)

I purchased this book because I was looking for help in making all of my son's baby food. The book doesn't really help with this, since all of the recipes are multi-ingredient, and (of course) when just starting out, you really need preparation instructions for single ingredient stuff.

I decided not to keep the book even after my baby was eating mixed food because: 1) The recipes are not very inventive (it was all stuff I would've come up with on my own); 2) The book is not very easy to work with (it's small and doesn't stay open to a given page very easily); 3) There are no illustrations or other aids to help you find ideas quickly.

A friend of mine brought over Super Baby Foods and I purchased that instead. I wish someone had mentioned *that* book to me before I'd bought this one - that's why I'm writing this review. If you're looking for help getting started making your own baby food, like I was, Super Baby Food is the book for you - not this one.
