You find much conflicting info on nutritional guidelines for baby food, so I chose to partner with a pediatrician and nutritionist for some guidance. Generally however I had a common sense approach and cooked with the freshest organic produce, grains, beans and meats that I could find. Good luck.

So, where do I start. I can rent time in a commercial kitchen to process the food. Where can I find nutritional guidelines for the stages of development? What are some of the most popular flavor combinations? Thanks in advance for your response.
