Velveeta cheese is also very soft and melts in your baby s mouth, though it is a bit pricey. If you can still get the spoon to your baby s mouth, try yogurt. In the carbohydrate department, some good choices are cubes of bread or pasta such as ziti or rigatoni, cut into smaller pieces. Go easy on the tomato sauce if you use it on pasta, sauces could cause upset tummies if introduced too young because of the high acidity of tomatoes. Frozen waffles are easy to keep on hand and excellent for breakfast, cut up into cubes or if baby is teething, you might want to give her a frozen one to gnaw on since the waffles are fully cooked before they are frozen.
Canned vegetables are great for babies as they are usually softer than fresh or frozen.
Peas, cooked carrots, green beans and corn are all excellent picks. Broccoli should be cooked until it is soft and cut into small pieces. Babies love to chew on French fries and they can be made with sweet potatoes for added vitamins. Hot dogs and peanut butter are usually not recommended for young children as they pose a choking hazard. You should try and make the pieces of food small enough that the baby can swallow them without chewing, as this will most likely take place more often than not.
