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

    • Find Jenna Helwig online at jennahelwig.com or get her amazing cook books Bare Minimum Dinner and Baby-Led Feeding.
