Are you spoon feeding or trying to do finger food?
My DD was a little underweight when we started weaning, so I'd always try and make a carbs+vegs+protein puree/mash of sorts (with an extra TSP of olive oil) and offer finger food on the side for some practice. I prepared and froze a lot of the vegs and proteins in ice cube trays, then mixed and matched based on whatever flavour combinations I thought could work, which meant I could put together a meal very quickly and get her to try a variety of flavours. She wasn't picky, which helped!
Best combinations off the top of my head:
- rice or sweet potato, butternut squash, ricotta
- polenta, beef, carrots
- cous cous, mixed vegetables, lentils
- rice, courgettes/peas/asparagus, salmon
Finger food was generally steamed vegetables (large variety), soft cooked pasta or soft fruit.
I didn't do snacks other than the odd rice cake until she was 1, and then it was fruit or yoghurt.
Breakfast was either Weetabix and banana, porridge and grated pear/apple, or yoghurt+banana+peanut butter with toast fingers
If you're after more defined recipes, I've been recommended the book "what mummy makes" by several people. I haven't actually tried it, but it seems to be very popular
