RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
My name is Rachel Morris. I have always enjoyed being creative in the kitchen, and am lucky enough to have a son who will try anything at least once.
I decided to start a series of recipe books called "Life After Baby Food" — to assist parents in making this transition from baby food to eating with the rest of the family. Through my recipe books, I aim to provide you with the ability to allow your baby, yourself, and your family to sit down together, and eat the same meal. Meals that are healthy and safe for your baby, practical and easily prepared for you, and deliciously enjoyed by your whole family— eat together!
