#80: In this episode, I’m joined by registered dietitian and new mom Jackie Laniado Sutton, whose baby, Alexandria, completed the 100 First Foods approach using baby-led weaning while keeping a kosher home. Jackie shares how she adapted foods, timing of meat and dairy, and meal prep to stay true to kosher guidelines without compromising safety or variety when starting solid foods.
