Me, You & the Kids, Too: The Ultimate Time-Saving Cookbook with Recipe Variations for the Whole Family

"Elliott, founder of the largest organic supermarket in the UK and author of Healthy Eating for Your Baby and Toddler, has developed a cookbook that offers over 85 recipes to tempt kids and adults, with mouthwatering pictures to entice the wee ones that can't yet read, and practical variations for infants up to one-year-old. Elliott notes that in addition to the obvious health benefits, her recipes will encourage children to be 'adventurous' eaters, something many parental cooks will likely welcome. Recipes are divided into sections — the basics, breakfast, lunch, dinner, and 'baked treats' — and feature sardine fish cakes, sweet potato brownies, lamb tagine, a stir-fry of marinated tofu, plum oatmeal bread, and many more. In addition to the delicious dishes, Elliot explains her foodie philosophy; offers a glossary of 'Wonderfoods,' such as avocados, kuzu, and kefir; and gives instructions on how to store and freeze foods (especially handy advice for parents with a big litter and a busy schedule). Elliott's background in organic food and motherhood (charming doodles by her kids pepper the volume) make this guide an invaluable resource for parents seeking alternatives to short-order cooking and boring baby food.
