A Comprehensive Guide to Natural, Homemade Baby Food

By Jami Balmet

For a limited time, this beloved classic is back inside The Joyful Home Vault Sale.

Once the sale closes, it goes back into the archive.

If you’ve ever wanted to confidently feed your baby real, nourishing food — this is your moment.

You Want to Give Your Baby the Best Start Possible…

But suddenly everyone has an opinion.

Start rice cereal at 4 months.
Add oatmeal so they sleep better.
Buy the jars — it’s easier.
Don’t delay solids.
Delay everything.

It’s confusing.

And when you’re holding a tiny baby in your arms, the last thing you want is uncertainty.

When my twins were babies, I thought I would just grab the little jars from the store and move on.

But after starting our real food journey, I couldn’t ignore the question:

If from-scratch food is better for us…
why wouldn’t it be better for our babies too?

So I researched.

And researched.

And tested.

And prayed.

And this book was born.

💛 What This Book Gives You

Inside this guide, you’ll learn:

✔ When babies are truly ready for solid food
✔ Why delaying grains can matter
✔ Why fats are GOOD for brain development
✔ Why meat is essential (yes, even for babies!)
✔ The best first foods to start with
✔ How to space new foods to prevent allergy confusion
✔ Signs of food sensitivities to watch for
✔ Foods to delay (honey, egg whites, peanuts, grains, citrus)
✔ Why Cheerios aren’t a health food
✔ The truth about juice
✔ How to store baby food safely
✔ How to feed baby organic (without going broke)

And yes…

✔ A full section on making homemade baby formula for moms who need an alternative.

This isn’t just recipes.

It’s confidence.

Part 1: Baby Food Basics

You’ll get clear, research-backed guidance on:

• Signs baby is ready

• How digestion develops

• What nutrients matter most

• How to avoid common modern mistakes

• How to include baby at the dinner table

• What tools you actually need (hint: not much)

Part 2: Real Food Recipes (Sorted by Age)

• 6–8 Months+

• 8–12 Months+

• 1 Year and Beyond

Simple.
Wholesome.
Nutrient-dense.
No processed junk.

Just real food from your own kitchen.

Why This Matters

It’s Healthier

No hidden sugars.
No preservatives.
No mystery ingredients.

It’s Cheaper

You’re already buying groceries. This uses what you have.

It Prevents Picky Eating

When babies only eat sweet fruit purees, their taste buds adapt to sweet.

When they experience:

• Texture

• Healthy fats

• Vegetables on their own

• Real flavors

You’re shaping lifelong habits.

You’re not just feeding a baby.

You’re discipling taste buds.
