The newest entry in the “Great Expectations” series focuses on easy preparation of nutritious baby and toddler meals — from the first finger-foods to more than 130 kid-tested recipes. Bessinger also offers tips on how to select the right food, set up a pantry, establish smart eating routines, and introduce a wide variety of tastes and textures. They’re lessons you, and your child, will benefit from throughout your lives.
