Anna Burton ，

Such a great resource！ I got this book with my firstborn and let overwhelm get the best of me。 But， her recipes are so simple and easy to follow！ I definitely plan to use them for my second baby。

Kristen Luppino ，

Fun recipes and some decent advice

Margot ，

This is a great baby/toddler cookbook and really lays out the process for introducing your baby to solid foods through homemade purees， including a schedule for gradual introduction if allergies are a concern。 Once your infant gets beyond purees， there are an abundance of simple and healthful recipes to try。

Shelby ，

This was so helpful in starting my baby on solids！

Andrea ，

Fantastic information presently in an approachable way and lots of great recipes for both baby and toddler。

Li Wei ，

PracticalVery helpful book， gave me confidence to start making baby food for my 6 month old baby:） recipes look appetizing too

Bonnie ，

I think this is a great resource for moms who are anxious about starting solids or feeling overwhelmed by the process。 I liked having a reference in the kitchen that gave me ideas for variety （especially with seasonings） I wouldn’t have thought of myself and also how to use things I already had on hand。 My daughter got a lot more varied of a diet than she would have otherwise。

Is it a valid critique of this cookbook that there aren't enough pictures？ Probably not， since most of the book consists of purees， which I imagine all look exactly the same， other than a few variations in color。 So， I checked this out before a baby appeared， and I think it looks pretty good？ We're a long way from needing to think about baby food other than formula， but I guess the beauty of this is that in theory I could always make a bunch now and just freeze it for later。 If I had any room in Is it a valid critique of this cookbook that there aren't enough pictures？ Probably not， since most of the book consists of purees， which I imagine all look exactly the same， other than a few variations in color。 So， I checked this out before a baby appeared， and I think it looks pretty good？ We're a long way from needing to think about baby food other than formula， but I guess the beauty of this is that in theory I could always make a bunch now and just freeze it for later。 If I had any room in my freezer， that is， which I don't。 Although now that I think about it a friend once showed me her filing system of purees and they were all in flat plastic baggies and could be stored upright once frozen and it was pretty genius。 So maybe that？ I dunno。I did like that MIddleberg mentions all the different options for feeding your baby and includes recipes and/or suggestions of not just purees， but also appropriate foods if you want to go the baby-led weening route instead， as well as recipes for meals that will appeal to toddlers。It's a very thorough book and I definitely don't have the energy to devote to it right now， mid-newborn sleep deprivation and all， and also all my library books are overdue so it will have to go back so my account can be unblocked （thanks for saving me， Nina！！！）。 But possibly in a month or so， once I've maybe figured out this whole baby thing a little better than I have now and still have some time before I go back to work I will think about checking it out again and giving a few things a try。 。。。more

Stella ，

I used this book as a guide as I prepared almost all of my daughter’s food。 Great ideas for unique purée combos， guidelines on feeding， and even some yummy （relatively simple） recipe ideas for toddler/whole family meals！

Cherie ，

Her first food was guac。 Wait， did I do something wrong？ Ha， this book is full of great ideas for Lil。 Going to start using it this week。

Gail Hoeft ，

Helpful bookI started making home made organic food for my granddaughter。 Wanted a book to give me some tips and ideas。 So far she has loved everything that I have made。

Kylie ，

Love this book。 It has everything I needed。 Recipes from purees up to healthy family dinners。 Also guides you in how much to feed them and great suggestions for other things。 Great charts for quick reference on things like cooking guides， introduction schedule， and more。 Haven't gotten to try the family dinner recipes yet but they look good！ Love this book。 It has everything I needed。 Recipes from purees up to healthy family dinners。 Also guides you in how much to feed them and great suggestions for other things。 Great charts for quick reference on things like cooking guides， introduction schedule， and more。 Haven't gotten to try the family dinner recipes yet but they look good！ 。。。more

Having been a picky eater pretty much all my life， I was drawn to The Big Book of Organic Baby Food by Stephanie Middleburg MS， RD， CDN。 Understanding how difficult starting the food process is with babies， she has constructed a wonderfully fun and uncomplicated guide for organics that carries you from their first bite to full family meals。 Being set up similarly to most cookbooks that I've read， part one covers the specifics of the style of cooking， then part two covers the recipes。 In part one Having been a picky eater pretty much all my life， I was drawn to The Big Book of Organic Baby Food by Stephanie Middleburg MS， RD， CDN。 Understanding how difficult starting the food process is with babies， she has constructed a wonderfully fun and uncomplicated guide for organics that carries you from their first bite to full family meals。 Being set up similarly to most cookbooks that I've read， part one covers the specifics of the style of cooking， then part two covers the recipes。 In part one the benefits of feeding organic as well as sections on organic labeling， allergy insight， and also tips on eating with the season to maximize cost， nutrition and flavor。 Part two provides all the recipes broken down into stages。 I thought it a nice touch that included with the recipes are labels for dietary restrictions as well as specialty sections on topics like vegetarian diets and rice cereal。 Even if just using this book to supplement jar food， its variety of flavors and ingredients well surpass your grocery store shelf。 I wish I would've had this book when my girls were younger， especially my youngest who has proven to be a difficult eater。 I actually plan on trying quite a few of these recipes as they look very enticing。 I received a review copy of this book from the publisher。 。。。more
