Sage Spoonfuls Simple Recipes, Healthy Meals & Happy Babies

While on the hunt for a baby food preparation cookbook, I felt like so many lacked information or they were too gourmet. I'm glad I went out on a limb and purchased Sage Spoonfuls as it has exceeded my expectations. I have yet to say "I wish this book included..." so I'll share with you all the things I love:> The book is sectioned off by what foods are appropriate for each stage/age.> At each stage, it includes information on what the recommended texture is and how much to feed (amount and frequency). As a new mom, I found this to be an extremely helpful starting point.> For each food item, Liza includes a snapshot of what it contains in the way of vitamins and such, how much a food yields (e.g. 1 large butternut squash = 25 ounces of puree), how to prepare, how to serve, "shelf life" in the fridge/freezer/on-the-go, a description of the food's benefits, what pairings are good when mixed with fruit, veggies, and meat, and what spices to consider adding. This is what I mean by thorough!> It's spiral bound which allows it to lay flat so you're not fighting to keep the book open while elbow deep in puree.> I haven't come across a food item that is not included in the book.> It includes some recipes for the whole family. In some recipes, there are recommended substitutes for various age groups.....and my list could go on and on!Love this book!!!

Love love love this book it makes feeding a baby so easy and straightforward. Far surpasses the other books I have. Goes by age and food and tells you how to make the food and also what food flavors go together. Seriously this is the only book you'll need! When your child is a toddler I would suggest Jessica Seinfeld's book Deceptively Delicious. It helps you get more fruits and veggies into your child's diet without them noticing.

Being a first time mom it was hard for me to find a way to feed my baby without having to worry what mixes well together, Liza's book has helped me with that, knowing what fruits and veggies and meats go well together and what to feed my baby, making being a first time mom so much easier!

So simple and easy. Other books are much too involved when it's not necessary. Organization of the book is great. It gives good ideas with simple whole ingredients our family uses weekly anyway. Also love that the book lays flat. Go ahead and order the jars if you plan on freezing in portioned sizes. I didn't and then spent wasted time searching for a substitute.

Love this book!Easy access to everything (nutrition, amount of servings, combinations, etc), lays flat, informational. Better than trying to research the whole internet (and get more confused that before!)

Love this book! Very easy to follow and tasty recipes

She isn't reinventing the wheel, but what she is doing is telling you food combinations you wouldn't think to mix. I feel by introducing my son to so many different separate flavours, he has a really good palette already! Highly recommended!
