I started with a lean lamb mince cooked with grated kumera, carrot, courgette and a very week vegie stock. I had to puree that again in the food processor to get it quite fine.
They do say to persevere as it may take a few goes when it comes to introducing new foods.
Good luck!]]> Wed, 10 Jun 2009 22:39:41 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=26937&PID=701839&title=all-solids-tricks-required#701839 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=26937&PID=701595&title=all-solids-tricks-required#701595 Author: jaycee

try making chicken meatballs or patties with grated apple in them - makes them nice and moist and a bit sweeter.

lol charly - mince and banana, yum yum ]]> Wed, 10 Jun 2009 13:39:48 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=26937&PID=701595&title=all-solids-tricks-required#701595 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=26937&PID=701548&title=all-solids-tricks-required#701548 Author: JessDub

Thanks for suggestions all.

He likes his finger foods - marmite on cruskits, gingernuts - just not the meaty ones, but will try a chicken nugget.]]> Wed, 10 Jun 2009 11:44:41 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=26937&PID=701548&title=all-solids-tricks-required#701548 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=26937&PID=701547&title=all-solids-tricks-required#701547 Author: xLUCKYx

Heya I feel a bit of your pain - We aren't on to meat yet but DS requires a cube of apples with all of his vege meals or he won't have a bar of it!

I was going to suggest you give him iron fortified baby cereals if you are worried about his iron intake.

Don't know about the lumps but have you looked at baby led weaning? Does he like other finger foods?

Good luck!]]> Wed, 10 Jun 2009 11:31:50 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=26937&PID=701547&title=all-solids-tricks-required#701547 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=26937&PID=701544&title=all-solids-tricks-required#701544 Author: Bel

Yeah pear is a good thing to mix in with stuff or apple. Luke often ate apple, kumara and mince...

Just keep trying I guess]]> Wed, 10 Jun 2009 11:07:17 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=26937&PID=701544&title=all-solids-tricks-required#701544 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=26937&PID=701521&title=all-solids-tricks-required#701521 Author: BugTeeny

I often mixed banana in with everything Hannah was eating.
It's pretty feral (mince and banana?! ), but it worked.
I just gradually decreased the amount of banana until she was eating food normally.]]> Wed, 10 Jun 2009 10:30:12 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=26937&PID=701521&title=all-solids-tricks-required#701521 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=26937&PID=701516&title=all-solids-tricks-required#701516 Author: kebakat

Rather than steak chips, what about chicken nuggets? He just might not like beef but might like chicken.. Daniel was like that for a while. If he really doesn't like meat though he will still be getting his iron needs through milk etc ]]> Wed, 10 Jun 2009 10:22:07 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=26937&PID=701516&title=all-solids-tricks-required#701516 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=26937&PID=701494&title=all-solids-tricks-required#701494 Author: JessDub

DS loves his booby and his small amounts of sweet solids: pureed fruit, banana porridge, sometimes kumara/pumpkin but he can sniff out meat or lumps a mile away.

I've tried mixing tiny amounts of age-appropriate meat meals into the sweet stuff, given him strips of steak to suck on but no go. Also, once he gets the taste, he refuses to eat any more and will therefore go without a meal which can disrupt his night sleeping.

Any suggestions? I'm not too worried but am aware he needs the iron.]]> Wed, 10 Jun 2009 09:52:08 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=26937&PID=701494&title=all-solids-tricks-required#701494
