You'll see why Super Baby Food is the only book you'll need

Here are a few examples of the quick, nutritious, delicious recipes you'll find in The Super Baby Food Book.

Super Quick Mini Jelly Roll for Toddlers
Take a slice of un-toasted whole grain bread. Remove crusts. (Use crusts for bread crumbs. See section on how to save money by grinding your own bread crumbs from those end slices that no one ever eats.)

Spread with all fruit no-sugar-added jelly or jam. Roll bread up as you would a sleeping bag. Stab with a skinny carrot or celery stick or toothpick to keep from unrolling.

Instead of, or in addition to, the jelly, use peanut butter, cream cheese, tahini, humus, or any sandwich spread. One of the sandwich spreads should be a colorful jelly so your child can see the swirl.


French Fries - Not
Don't deep fry potatoes in all that oil--bake them for your toddler instead!
Cut up 2 or 3 potatoes into quarters, eighths, or French fry shapes. You can peel them if you wish, but remember that the peels have lots of nutrients.

Put the cut-up potatoes in a bowl and toss them with melted butter. Use only about 1 teaspoon of melted butter for each potato. (Or save washing a big bowl and brush them with melted butter instead.)

Spread potatoes on a cookie sheet sprayed with non-stick cooking spray. Bake in pre-heated 400 oven for 20 minutes or until browned.


Variations: Sprinkle some Parmesan cheese and/or parsley on those fries before they go into the oven--delicious! Or use sweet potatoes instead of white potatoes for an extra jolt of vitamin A.
