What's next ... baby food?

Question

My 6 month old daughter is well into solids and has a very hearty appetite. So far she eats

Rice cereal

Fruit... pear, apple, banana, avocado,

Vegies... pumpkin, sweet potato, potato, zucchini, broccoli, carrot

And combinations of the above

I usually make her food but use the occasional jar which has also contained mango.

Any ideas on other good foods for her that are easy to prepare and store. I like to make things in advance.

Also she is dairy intolerent so no yoghurt or custard etc.

THanks

Answer 1

How about letting her try some of what you are eating???

Look into baby-led weaning....it is awesome...you will be surprised at what your 6 month old can do to a piece of asparagus and a piece of bread..or a banana and piece of toast...give it a try...you will find it a little messy here and there but so much more fun to watch....

and rice cereal isn't needed either...try some real rice with steamed carrots or broccoli??? a BIG hit around here..

Answer 2

peas and carrots are ez to store green beans you can buy sweet potatoes and pumpkin at the store so you could mix those broccoli and carrots.  I make peaches and strawberry's i even made beef and noodles for her just puree it well she loved that my daughter is dairy intolerant also and i am so tired of label reading i hope she comes out of it when she gets older she is 8 1/2 months now.
