For parents, grandparents and other caregivers, The Best Homemade Baby Food on The Planet can be your trusted resource, when it comes to feeding infants and toddlers. Each recipe was professionally tested and baby approved, and most can be made in fewer than 10 minutes.
The recipes use common ingredients that you probably have on hand, and many can be safely refrigerated for a few days or frozen for later use. Some don’t even require cooking! Best of all, the recipes in this book have significant nutrient value and will help Baby develop a well-rounded palate that’s essential to establishing preferences for vegetables, fruit and other “superfoods” important for proper growth and development.
Given the health issues beginning to plague very young children, it’s imperative that parents introduce infants to nourishing, high-quality foods from the outset, since doing so will help shape a child’s food preferences and positively impact them for life.
