Book Reviews of The Petit Appetit Cookbook: Easy, Organic Recipes to Nurture Your Baby and Toddler
Book Review: A Great Resource
Summary: 5 Stars
I already had Super Baby Food at home for my 2nd child. It's a good book, but I wanted to find some other baby food recipes to make for my 3rd child. I purchased both Blender Baby Food and this book, The Petit Appetit. I enjoy both books, however I am very impressed with the details that this author, Lisa Barnes, goes into. She talks about food safety, nutrition, the benefits of homemade vs. store bought, organic foods, and other good topics. The chapters are divided into the ages/stages when certain foods can be introduced. She also has some great recipes that I can't wait to try.
My son is only 9 weeks old now, so he's not quite ready to begin sampling these great foods, but I figured that summer is the perfect time to catch foods at the farmer's markets while they are in season and at their freshest. I can start making, freezing and perhaps even canning some of the recipes so that they are ready when my son is ready. This book is a great resource to have at home. Don't be afraid to try making your own baby food. With my first child, I remember standing in line at the grocery store lining the conveyor belt with tons of jars of food. I never thought that I could make my own food. Between that time and the birth of my second child, I started down the organic road and realized I could make my own food. "Duh! What did people do years ago before jarred baby food!" I thought to myself. It really is easy to do but it just takes time. If you're willing to take that time, you'll benefit from buying this book!
