The Baby Bistro Cookbook

More about the book

You no longer need to exclude your baby or toddler from a gourmet lifestyle! This cookbook makes it easy to introduce your child to fine dining with 150 delicious, foolproof recipes for children from their first bites through toddlerhood. It covers everything from simple pureed fruits and vegetables to more complex meals like meats, sandwiches, snacks, and beverages, guiding you through your child's nutritional and gustatory stages. Many baby and toddler cookbooks offer outdated advice or unappealing dishes, but the author was inspired to create a better option when cooking for her son. With expert culinary skills and a desire for healthy, sophisticated foods, she developed this unique cookbook. Packed with easy-to-follow upscale recipes, such as Ratatouille and Fresh Mozzarella Omelet, this book also includes substitutions for food allergies, directions for preparing a week's supply of dishes that can be refrigerated or frozen, pediatrician-approved tips for adapting recipes to suit your child's age and tastes, and hints for traveling with children. It even features recipes for special occasions. Teaching your child to appreciate fresh, delicious meals is easy, and once you see them enjoying healthy food, you'll never want to feed them bland baby food again!
