About Babies and Milk – Yes in Baked Goods, No as a Drink

Milk, such a benign subject yet one that often causes consternation for many parents as they begin to introduce solid foods to their little ones.  When to introduce milk to your baby can be a very confusing issue indeed.  This confusion arises when many pediatricians will simply tell you “No dairy for your baby until [...]

Shrimp Scampi for Dinner? Make a Bit of Chicken & Baby Can Share It Too!

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 [...]

Not Cheesy Mac, Mac & Mousse – A “Saucy” Sweet Potato Baby Food Recipe. Making use of extra baby purees

Can Babies Be Allergic to Rice Cereal?

Could my baby be allergic to Rice/Rice cereal? It seems like she had a reaction to it! Rice in particular is not a known “high” allergen in the US and most Western Countries and this is why it is typically recommended as an infant’s first food (in the US that is). If there is a rice [...]
