Testimonial: "I have started to cook out of 'taste it' - and WOW! Two out of two so far and I am already scouring the pages for tomorrow night’s dinner. I also plan to make the cake mix playdough for my playgroup this week. Last night I made Aston (and myself) the Pumpkin and cheese pasta - we subbed fetta for the cottage cheese just because that’s all I had in the fridge! Aston ate it all on his own - I did have to scrub some pumpkin off the wall but the joy of watching his pride and enjoyment was well worth it. The Chicken nuggets took me only 10 min to make 15 min to cook and they are SO yummy! Thanks so much", Elle, Townsville, Qld |

Dear Jan ... thanks for the safe delivery of my order of your book “Taste It”. My daughter is about to start feeding her son on solids, and I found your book at our local library. My daughter and I both were pleased with the presentation and information in your book, and decided to purchase it as a reference book for her. Thanks ...

Just wanted to say thanks so much for such a great book - Taste It! Since I bought your book I have made many different foods for my baby Clio! I really enjoy making her exciting new foods to try! The book really makes it easy for me, when I was once unsure as to what I should even be giving her to eat, when, how much, what sorts!!! I LOVE it! I have recommended it to many friends!

I have read your book and I use it a lot, it has been my main point of reference throughout my eleven month old's first year.
I love all of the suggestions for finger food and the way you encourage a wide variety of foods from an early age- this was something I didn't encourage with my toddler after following very different advice, which I now contribute to him being an extremely fussy eater! The zucchini slice recipe is fantastic as is the lentil patties and chicken fingers.
