other than milk, she's not getting much protein. Problem:

Each time I cook fish or chicken or lamb with carrots/veg it and puree it, she wont touch it. Ive tasted it and its always got a powdery texture. She doesnt like any of the annabel karmel recipes Ive tried.

She likes hipp jar food - but the protein content is usually something like chicken 5% in a jar. Dont think this is enough.

She doesnt like lentils or cheese, anything else I can try? Mince meat is usually too hard.

thankyou
