100 easy, convenient recipes for making baby food in your slow cooker, pressure cooker, Instant Pot, or multi-cooker, from the food editor at Parents magazine

For parents who want to make their own fresh, unprocessed baby food, the multi-cooker is the perfect appliance, and Jenna Helwig, author of Real Baby Food and Baby-Led Feeding, is the perfect guide. This book shares 100 recipes that are simple to prepare—whether quickly with a pressure cooker or with the set-it-and-forget-it convenience of a slow cooker—and are healthy, nutritious, and delicious. From starter foods to family meals, recipes include: DIY staples like rice cereal and yogurt; single-ingredient fruit and veggie purees; finger foods like Spaghetti Squash Patties, Steamed Banana Bread, and Chicken Nuggets; and toddler-friendly meals like Mac ‘n’ Cheese, Meatballs, and Savory Steel-Cut Oats. Even better, many of the recipes can be made fast or slow using either a pressure- or slow-cooker—flexibility that’s priceless for parents juggling irregular schedules. All recipes are vetted by a registered dietitian and include nutritional information to help ensure healthy mealtimes.
