Baby led weaning made easy and enjoyable with Author Jenna Helwig

In this episode I am talking to Jenna Helwig, the food director at ‘Real Simple’ magazine, the mom of a 1 one year old and author of 3 fantastic cookbooks. Besides others she wrote the number one bestseller ‘Baby Led Feeding’ and that is the main reason I’m so excited to talk to her about:

• What is baby-led weaning?
• The biggest mistakes while baby led weaning
• How to make the process more simple and enjoyable
• How to simplify food preparation
• The difference between meal prepping and meal planning 
• Favorite supermarket shortcuts 
• How to minimize food waste
