Healthy Mum, Happy Baby

When Nayla Natural Care contacted us about reviewing TruKid products on yoyomama, owner Gwen also said she’d first picked up Healthy Mum, Happy Baby at the library, and then bought a copy for herself and wanted to review it. Imagine how chuffed I was when she sent me her review last October, and it was glowing. I love when people totally “get” what I was trying to do with the book, and Gwen did.

I’ve just starting twittering for Healthy Mum, Happy Baby – it’s a great way to tweet about recipes, books or tips and tricks I find that compliment the book. Do you twitter too? You’ll find me at: http://twitter.com/healthymum

Because we’ve spent many a day testing the recipes in Healthy Mum, we often take a break from it before dipping back into it to rediscover family favourites. We just recently cracked it open again when our eldest chose Pollo Salsa Verde as her dinner of the week, and now we’re munching on our favourite Blueberry Lemon muffins which are perfect for snacks or breakfasts on the go, Pollo and Broccoli and Orecchiette. Lots of comfort food with all the snow we’re having!

To help offset picky eating while still maintaining some variety in our meals each week we ask each girl what they’d like for dinner in the upcoming week and they each get to pick a meal. M varies between Pollo and Broccoli and Orecchiette, while L invariably chooses cheese toast.
