Shrimp scampi – it’s really just an excuse to eat melted lemony butter according to my kiddos. It’s a bit like lobster they say, it’s only good because of the butter. I have yet to introduce them to the wonderful oozy yum of baked shrimp scampi. I am sure they will say it’s only good [...]
You probably already know that it’s not a good idea to introduce salt into a baby’s diet. I am a firm believer in allowing children to enjoy the natural tastes of foods free from salt and sugary additives. Herbs and spices are a healthier, more flavorful choice when deciding to enhance foods for children of [...]

We have received 3 emails today asking how commercial baby food companies remove nitrates from their carrots. There must be some discussion going on somewhere in forum-land and I do hope people will see this posting. Commercial baby food carrots HAVE NITRATES in them too. Sorry for the caps, you see, it really upsets me [...]
Alison wrote to us today asking about spinach and nitrates. ” I’m confused! On the spinach page, you recommend waiting until 10-12 months of age to introduce it, but on the nitrate issue page, the AAP says that a baby’s digestive system is fully developed at 6 months.
