Hi all,

I'm feeling so bored with the food I give my 20mth old daughter (and shes not too fussy ... A good little eater she is - Lucky Mum Am I :woman

AND if so, would you know whereabouts I could purchase it and if it's a recent publication within the last few yrs !!

... Huge THANKS, ... Would be so gratefully appreciated

Try "Deceptively Delicious" - there is a thread on it here in BB. Contains lots of toddler-friendly recipes with HIDDEN VEGGIES.

My cousin gave me a book called 'Baby and Toddler' from the Health for Life series of cookbooks. This one is by Jody Vassallo, has a soft, magazine-like cover and is published by Fortiori. (She works for the Co-op bookshop, but I imagine you'd be able to find it elsewhere also.)
There are a couple of baby recipes, then a couple that would be suited to all ages (like custard-y ones) then separate chapters for toddler breakfasts, lunches and dinners.
I haven't tried any of the older child recipes as we're not quite ready for them... But they look very tasty.

There is an old but good baby and toddler recipe and food book by Woman's weekly or Family Circle. It's one of those recipe book that have been produced for ever and you can still buy- like the Chinese cooking, kids birthday cakes, Biscuits and Slices etc etc. Someone else might know them but there is def one for toddlers. It will be on ebay if they are not producing it anymore. I will try and have a look.

Yep I have the WW Fresh Food for Babies and Toddlers and it has some great recipes in it. There is one called Healthy Food for Children too I think. I got mine for about $13 at Borders. Good luck!

Try the women's weekly one. I've got it and it's got lots of great ideas.
You should be able to pick up a cheap copy on ebay and WW recipes are usually easy to follow.
