In 2014, Melton City Council developed a ‘Cooking for Kids Cookbook’, which is given to parents and guardians during Maternal Child Health visits and new parent groups. The cookbook outlines how to introduce your baby to solids and includes recipes that young children can help cook.

We are updating the cookbook and would love you to submit your family’s favourite, nourishing recipes below, including the significance of this dish to your family or culture. You can also upload a picture of the dish or recipe idea!

Some of these recipes will be chosen to feature in the updated version of the cookbook.

Each submitted recipe will go into a draw to win one of three $100 local grocery store vouchers. The more recipes you submit, the greater chance you have to win!

If you are signed in, you will enter the draw with the email address associated with your account.
