Make-Ahead Baby Food Cookbook: Meal Plans and Recipes for Every Stage

Great resource for first time baby food makers. I was starting to stress on how to start feeding and making baby food for my baby. This book made it simple. It gives you a simple grocery list with each feeding stage, recipes, and a food introduction schedule.

Great recipes that baby loves. Practical recipes that are easy to make and freeze the leftovers. Surprised at how successful each recipe has been.

A great guide for making baby food and information about starting solids. I debated just looking recipes up online, but this book is nice to have it all in mind be place. It also provides more than just recipes. While I am not following the meal plan that’s specifically laid out in the book, it helps provide me with ideas. The instructions for storing and making ahead also helps if you plan to make all or some of your baby’s food.

I really like the simple recipes in this book for slowly ramping up from first introducing solids to eating table foods with the family. However I am a bit annoyed by the "shopping list" pages that do not include ALL of the recipes, just the ones from the suggested meal plan for that stage. I wish they had noted the bonus recipes and their ingredients on the list too; for example, 7 of the 20 recipes in stage 1 are not on the shopping list, but they are some of the first recipes in the book! So be aware you do have to pay close attention if you plan to make ALL the recipes instead of just following the suggested meal plan.

The media could not be loaded. This book has so much to offer for every single stage of your baby's lead weaning stages.From there very first foods all the way up to when they're a toddler! Also there are weekly meals plans for breakfast lunch dinner and even the snacks in between !Having to decide on what's for dinner alone every single night for the entire family can be such a hassle, so already having a pre made meal plan written up for your little one is more than convinient!If you're a parent interested in making all the food your baby is going to consume yourself, that alone is already time consuming enough so I believe this book is a perfect purchase for you!Take a chance and order the book ❤️

So many great recipes for baby food! Most are very easily made and use ingredients you might have on hand.

I used this book to feed my baby, and I can't say enough good things about it! I lived the stages, and it made starting solids so much less intimidating. I appreciate that the author is a dietician. I knew I wanted to make my own baby food, and this made it so much easier. The meal plans are so helpful and take the effort out of introducing allergens and new foods, and so on. The grocery lists are helpful as well. I will say that I think it made more food than my baby would go through before it gets too old in the freezer, but maybe my kid didn't eat much as a baby. A lot of the recipes I love eating myself, like broccoli cheese muffins, salmon patties, and ginger garlic meatballs. It's actually a go-to cookbook for several things, even though my daughter is 2 1/2 now. I think the approach of giving babies a lot of flavors worked well, because my toddler now is a great eater! She got a really great start from this book.

It was helpful to me as a first time mom BUT I’ve found the same stuff online with puree recipes galore on Pinterest and blogs that I kinda feel like I wasted my money on this. If you’re looking for something simple to get started it’s helpful. Didn’t love the avocado freezer recommendation in this book because it doesn’t keep in the freezer or thaw well at all. Much better fresh or mixed in with lemon juice or another ingredient so that it actually can be frozen and thawed well.
