Defrosting home-made baby food

Possibly a daft question, but can anyone tell me if they heat through defrosted homemade meat/fish portions of baby food before serving? DS has just started eating protein and I am terrified of giving him food poisoning.

I always heat up anything that I have cooked and then frozen to a really high temperature, and then let cool to an eating temperature for my baby.

If it has already been thoroughly cooked before freezing ...I leave meat-y stuff to defrost in the fridge then heat it up, or I shove it in the microwave to defrost in a pinch.

yes definitely - nuke it and let it cool down

Also if it contains rice, I would never let it defrost slowly in the fridge. I would always heat that up immediately straight from the freezer.
