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 [...]

Baby Foods to Avoid – Are Forbidden Foods Still Relevant?

We received an email this evening regarding delaying the introduction of foods listed on our Forbidden Foods chart. Sandra wrote the following: Your list of “forbidden” foods is very poorly outdated.
