Read moreI've observed that baby foods can be quite "boring" sometimes, limited to porridges and pureed fruits/vegetables. Perhaps, you can make things more interesting for baby by mixing textures -- instead of just soft and mushy foods, you can include some crunchy bits. For example, if you are cooking a porridge with minced meat, you can sautee the meat first and sprinkle it over the porridge instead of mixing the meat in with porridge from the beginning. The ingredients are still the same, healthy and nutritious - just with varying cooking styles to keep baby's taste buds interested.
Read moreYour baby must be bored with his or her purees. By age one, let them experiment with food that is cooked for the rest of the family. Take note of spice levels and also allergenic food when doing so. Try baked dishes like a mac and cheese with baby pasta, creamy roast chicken with cheese mash, lamb cassarole with buttered veg etc. When my kids were small I got such wonderful ideas from Annabel Karmel's website. http://www.annabelkarmel.com/gb/ She also has some pretty nice books.

Yummy and healthy food for baby basically is not that hard. I always do the 3C: 1. Change the sugar and salt with other ingredients 2. Cooked it correctly 3. Color combination attract kids. Good luck! :)
