I ordered Naturally Healthy First Foods for Baby because I wanted to make my own baby food. I use mainly my steamer, but the book says that you can cook the vegetables on the stove as well. There is a lot of information at the beginning of the book that I skimmed over. I really like that the food recipes are divided by how many months old the baby is. That helps when deciding what foods to give the baby and when. The recipes are easy to follow but I use the Fresh Baby storage containers to freeze the food. I would recommend this book.

In order to keep this as short and sweet as possible I’ll say that I totally agree with all the 5 star reviews already posted. Although I haven’t yet started my baby on solids, we’ll be starting in another two weeks. After reading this book I feel much more prepared than after reading 3 other books on the subject. The author is much more conservative and slow to introduce foods but with food alergies hitting an all time high in our country I’d rather take it slow than risk my daughter developing allergies. After following J. Rubin’s recomendations I’ll know that I did everything possible to avoid allergies.
Also, the book is right in line with my philosophies of how we should eat; organic and as much local produce as possible. I love the fact that she explains, with fantastic information, why we should eat organic and local. After reading this book, I can’t imagine any parent would disregard the information on organic foods or worse feed their child store bought baby food all the time.
In short, fantastic book! ALL PARENTS OF AN INFANT SHOULD READ THIS BOOK!!

We had decided from the beginning that we would be making our own baby food. It just fit in with our lifestyle and parenting ideals. Plus, we could control exactly what was going in our little one’s body. Buying organic and local when possible makes things even more healthful and good for the earth.
This book guides you through the different nutritional developmental stages and provides recipes for each. Of course anyone can make mashed bananas without a recipe, but there are some other tasty things to try. Great overall resource and helps you decide when and how you’ll feed your child.
