Use is all of the time! Used it a lot when my little one was first eating and now he is 3 I use it still! Such simple recipes which don’t break the bank and user friendly app! Love following Jo on Instagram too! Such a relatable person!!!!! ### 3/5 — Some recipes are vague *2023-01-12, version 3.2.0* I’ve struggled with a few of the recipes - simple things like knowing if the oven temp is fan, how many muffins/loaves to expect to make, whether butter should be melted (and when to add as recipe doesn’t mention it), should basil be chopped…list goes on 😕 there’s no mechanism to provide feedback on recipes or ask questions and the app hasn’t been updated in 2 years (I’ve had it for just over 2 years). That said, there are some great ideas and I’ve used lots of the recipes - I’ve just had to use my intuition and freestyle some of them! ### 5/5 — Easy to use and very useful too *2022-06-08, version 3.2.0* My 20 month old tried few of the recipes and liked them so I’m happy with this app. ### 5/5 — Brilliant quick recipes *2022-03-12, version 3.2.0* Love how many quick and easy recipes there are for us busy mums! Brilliant! Thank you is all I can say! Xx ### 5/5 — Amazing yummy recipes! *2022-02-11, version 3.2.0* I’ve been using this app almost daily ever since my son was 6 months old (he’s now nearly 2). The family dinners are wonderful, I can cook one meal that everyone will eat. This app regularly saves my sanity when I don’t know what to cook. I love it! ### 5/5 — Great app *2021-12-30, version 3.2.0* Excellent app, very helpful when feeding a 14 month old! ### 5/5 — good app *2021-10-19, version 3.2.0* so easy to use and great for ideas ### 5/5 — Loads of great recipe ideas *2021-09-21, version 3.2.0* Some very lovely and delicious meal ideas ideal for whole family.

The recipes are fab and so easy to whip together which is especially useful when you have hungry children at your ankles!! ## Frequently asked questions about Baby Led Kitchen ### What is Baby Led Kitchen?
