Great book, great recipes!
I got this book prior to our son being born with the hope that I would be making all his food. I've now been doing so using this book and her Top 100 Purees for the last 5 months. I primarily use this book since we got past the most basic purees. I have made more than half of the recipes up through the 9-12 month section and every one of them has turned out great. There has only been one beef recipe that our son doesn't seem to care much for. I have to say too that I have tasted every recipe I've made and they are all delicious. I don't see how you could go wrong with it. I usually make a double or triple batch of each and freeze portions because the servings are typically small but when you buy the ingredients you usually have much more than they call for.

I have one other book that was given to me and is written by a gourmet couple. I tried two of their recipes and they were both a disaster. One I could salvage and the other I had to just throw away. You really can't go wrong with this book. The recipes are easy and the food is great and nutritious. I use a hand mixer to puree and it works well. Enjoy and have fun! Your babies will love it and will grow up with an appetite for all kinds of good food instead of just junk!

Good layout, tasty recipes
This is an attractive, easy-to-read recipe book, with a good mixture of fun, easy and interesting recipes

Tasty Healthy Treats-for babies, toddlers and preschoolers
Just because it's designed for babies, does not mean you or a friend, even a spouse won't enjoy these meals. They're great finger foods for parties, basketball games, etc. Instead of pigs-n-a- blanket or chips, try one of the delicious and healthy finger foods from FIRST MEALS. Why not take care of your BIG BABY? After all, he was here before the little ones and it's just as important to take care of all of our love ones. This book has great photos of the meals and easy to follow directions. The have fun foods that peaky preschoolers will love. See for yourself!

Fun book!
My daughter is only a year old, so I haven't tried a lot of the recipes for older kids, but I've loved what I've done so far. We've also been able to turn some of the meals into family meals as she suggests. I can tell I'm really going to enjoy this book. The only downside is a few of the ingredients are hard for me to track down, but I've just changed the recipes to use something similar and so far, it has all turned out okay.

Good but.....
this book is good if you are looking for new ideas on what to feed your toddler. some of the recipes are not very realist and not always suitable for freezing. for the most part it is good and lets you get in your food groups and some are pretty yummy for mommy too.
