Simple Recipes for a Wholesome Start
Nothing compares with making your own baby food: It's fresh and unprocessed, you choose what goes into it, and it is a delicious way to introduce your child to a world of flavors. In Real Baby Food, Jenna Helwig helps you fit this loving act into a busy day's routine by making the process easy, fast, and flexible with 100 meals to begin a lifetime of healthy eating—from the moment your baby takes her first bite of solid food through her toddler years when she's happily ensconced in a booster seat at the family table.
Real Baby Food is your guide to these important first years of eating. Find the building blocks of starting your child on solid foods, how to recognize food allergies, and easy ways to cook in bulk. Recipes progress from single-ingredient purées to multi-flavor blends like Salmon, Kale, and Sweet Potato Smash; then move on to finger foods—Turkey Meatloaf Bites, Maple Graham Animals—and finally toddler meals and snacks. Most can be made ahead and frozen, many are easily adapted for grown-up tastes, and all include full nutritional information.

      Helwig (food editor, Parents magazine) and registered dietician Stasenko offer a guide that can aid parents in planning and creating meals for a baby or toddler without resorting to jarred or processed food. Several helpful charts provide puree combinations, meatless sources of key nutrients (for vegan/vegetarian options), and portion sizes for babies by age range. Ways to be prepared for the hungry one include having the right tools, a well-stocked pantry, and freezing items for up to three months. Making your own cereal and teething biscuits is encouraged. Examples of recipes include baby's Bolognese, curried cauliflower, and chickpeas. For the toddler, there's a blueberry-spinach shake, toppings on toast, and more. The authors suggest babies eat at the family table, are introduced to new foods, and have a sippy cup handy, while relating that the child's appetite will vary. Some recipes feature a flavor kick or an age-it-up option. Other topics covered are safety (choking), gluten-free concerns, and wholesome feeding tips. VERDICT A useful resource for recipes, advice, and ideas for the healthy feeding of babies and toddlers.--Barbara Kundanis, Longmont P.L., CO
