Bl**dy weaning - at wits end

I am hoping someone can help, DD is 10 months and I have had problems weaning from the very start. I started at approx 6 months but couldn't use rice as it made her constipated so I concentrated on veg and fruit purees, except for banana as that made her constipated also. She always loved her bottles but was very picky with food, might have some today but would spew it out tomorrow. Now at 10 months she has a very limited diet, doesn't like meat and has gone off the veg she did like. I tried so many recipes from weaning books and she spat them all out so also tried shop bought food from the very expensive to cheap and she also spat them out so at least its not my cooking!
I know everyone says till 1 is just for fun but I can't help worrying that she will get into the habit of being picky with food and that it will affect her development.
She had silent reflux for the first 4 months and sometimes I see globs up her nose like in the early days so am wondering if the reflux might still be there and affecting her eating habits.
Any advice or personal experience greatly appreciated Thanks, FTM so haven't a clue.

Thanks to all for your suggestions, especially Zambaloo for recipe. Sorry been mia but have been summoned back to work from mat leave and am in a panic finding babyminder. Makes this weaning thing an even bigger issue as was hoping to gently move her along but hey ho maybe she'll take food from someone else.
