    Reviews

    Toddler approved

    "Another approved meal packet via my tiny Michelin star critic. I work from home, but still struggle to find time to shop, buy healthy ingredients, look up recipes, and then cook it in a way my 12 month old approves of. These packets are life savers. They include ingredients I generally might not have access to year round, or fruits I might overlook just out of habit - like papaya. It’s important for me to expose my baby to all types of healthy foods and these packets don’t let me down. I think she’s tried every flavor and likes every single one. I feel confident that I’m giving her a healthy variety of food without the guilt."
