    I love this! My little boy has been enjoying your recipes since he was 8 months old — he’s 13 months now and probably your biggest fan. He can be a fussy eater but we have a load of your recipes on regular rotation because they always go down so well (and tend to be packed full of protein and veggies too). Your book and blog have been a lifesaver to this mummy!

    What a fantastic list of recipes! While my sisters and I aren’t really considered “kids”, we’d still love these recipes! Besides, I have a whole family of non-vegans who need some carnivore-approved recipes, and all of these will do the trick!

    I was so excited to find this post! My 5 year old daughter has just started eating solids and is vegan due to health issues. I wanted to be able to make dinner for her, my son and myself without needing to make two different dishes. So far, everything has been a hit and my 6 year old son has no complaints about his new diet.

    Thanks. My almost 5 year old is super picky these days. The only veggies she likes are peas, carrots, cauliflower and maybe broccoli, (She used to eat everything..). She also won’t eat beans except chickpeas, and no greens. :sigh: Dinner is a challenge.

    Just want to say that I’ve cooked a load of these over the last couple of weeks and EVERY SINGLE ONE was a hit with my often fussy 14 month old. Finally he’s getting healthy meals and eating lots, with no need to resort to purees when he refuses what I’ve cooked.
    Thanks so much!
