5.0 out of 5 stars
An excellent reference,
By A Customer
This review is from: Optimum Nutrition for Babies and Young Children: Over 150 Quick and Tempting Recipes for the Best Start in Life (Optimum nutrition handbook) (Paperback)
I loved this book. Sensible no nonsense advice and recipes for balanced, healthy nutrition for the whole family. Favourite recipe: immune boosting soup and it's delicious too. There is something for all the family. Vegetarian, dairy free, wheat free diets are also catered for. Advice on alternatives to formula milk. An invaluable companion to What Should I Feed My Baby? by Suzannah Oliver. Result: There are no fussy eaters in this family. I personally kept well clear of Annabel Karmel and her silly face shaped potato cakes.

Worried about weaning your baby? This is all you need.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Optimum Nutrition for Babies and Young Children: Over 150 Quick and Tempting Recipes for the Best Start in Life (Optimum nutrition handbook) (Paperback)
This book helped me develop the confidence to put together a healthy diet for my baby. The recipes are great, but there's more - I quickly learned to adapt them and come up with my own meal plans which suit our lifestyle. This is not just for Über-mums who would rather be seen dead than buy baby food in jars - you learn to read the labels and reject the rubbish. The book also has a great and easy-to-read section on the building blocks of nutrition - I learned a thing or two about my own dietary requirements!

Loads of recipes for the whole family,

This review is from: Optimum Nutrition for Babies and Young Children: Over 150 Quick and Tempting Recipes for the Best Start in Life (Paperback)
My two boys are now 2 1/2 and 4 1/2 and I still use recipes from this book. Particular favourites are the quick-and-easy pasta recipes, which really are quick and easy. There are also loads of ideas for pizza toppings, sandwich fillings and baked potato fillings. The start of the book makes a good reference section with information about nutrition and various useful ingredients you might not come across everyday, except in a wholefood shop.
My only reservation is that, despite the evidence from research studies, Lucy Burney doesn't seem to be aware of the nutritional benefits of breastfeeding past one year. Nevertheless I feel this book is a great resource. It's a good alternative to the Annabel Karmel books, which use a lot of wheat and dairy and seem to encourage you to cook meals for kids which are different to those eaten by the adults. I know this approach is very popular but I don't believe in making extra work for myself!
