Mila’s Meals – The Beginning & The Basics

‘Mila’s Meals’ is a jam-packed books featuring a collection of nourishing whole food recipes and food ideas for baby’s first year (and the rest of the family too). Included are over 100 recipes all free from gluten, refined sugar, dairy and artificial additives.

‘Mila’s Meals’ is a call to action for every parent to be conscious of what they are feeding their little ones, providing a guideline on how to achieve this as effectively and effortlessly as possible. If you are a new Mama or know anyone who is; if your child has food allergies or intolerances; if you plan to raise your children on a ‘free from’ diet; or, if you would simply like to nutritionally educate yourself, then this is the book for you. – Alix Verrips, Chef, Journalist and Editor.
