The What a Good Eater! podcast is based off of the What a Good Eater! cookbook. It is a baby and toddler cookbook filled with wholesome, family-friendly recipes designed to promote a well-rounded eater right from the get-go. This show is hosted by the authors: two moms who believe that introducing flavorful foods using herbs and spices and exposing children to a variety of colors, flavors, and textures while they are young encourages openness, minimizes picky-eating habits, and sets the stage—and table—for positive future family meal experiences.

Created with the careful guidance of pediatricians, nutritionists, registered dietitians, and naturopaths, recipes include a variety of powerhouse foods, such as kale and salmon, soothing herbs and spices from cardamom to rosemary, and a glossary of herbs and spices with potential health benefits.

Parents are guided on how to feed their babies and establish healthy eating habits from the start. With episodes and chapters dedicated to frequently asked questions and helpful tips, such as troubleshooting picky eating and staying away from “food ruts,” you’ll find answers to many feeding questions not often answered during pediatrician visits.

Authors Alessandra and Amy are busy moms who understand the majority of recipes need to be ready in about 30 minutes or less, and that cooking daily with little ones can pose a challenge! For this reason, most recipes yield large quantities so that you can cook once and enjoy repeatedly.

What a Good Eater! approaches food for your baby in simple, nutritious, age-appropriate steps beginning from her first meals and advancing well into toddlerhood and beyond. These nourishing dishes are bound to keep bellies full, and the aromas will make your kitchen smell fantastic, all while giving your child the gift of an expansive flavor profile from early on.

We hope you enjoy the show!
