Paula Burch's
Baby Food Cookbook
So many people have asked me for my baby food recipes that I think
there's a need for a cookbook. Please note that I am not a registered
dietician (I'm a biologist Ph.D. with an interest in nutrition);
what's written here is the best information that I've been able to
locate for my own use. As always, never take anything you read as
medical advice.
Some foods can make babies sick; some may increase the risk of
serious food allergies later in life; and some may even increase the
risk of Type I diabetes. Early introduction of solids (before four
months of age, or preferably six) may increase the risk of allergies
and eczema. It's worthwhile to carefully choose which foods to
introduce to a baby, and when. See Food
choices for infants for more information on which foods to avoid.
Baby food is very easy to make, but recipes can be useful,
nonetheless. Here's my collection, based on
my experiences with two kids.
A brief and inadequate discussion on books on this subject.
