Yes, you can wait longer. A 5 month old doesn't need, and really shouldn't have any solid foods. Current recommendations from every reliable source are to wait until 6 months to begin solids, unless baby is CLEARLY ready and in need of something more. (And your baby obviously isn't.) You can try again in a month or so, or you can wait until baby is clearly interested and ready, which might be in a couple of weeks, or not for 3-4 months. (Even at 6 months he won't yet really *need* solids.)

I make homemade carrots for my 7 month old grandbaby. I buy fresh carrats. I wash them cut them into 3 to 4 parts depending on how large they are. I put in pan with water, and bring to boil. I put butter in it, and a little sugar, and he eats it up. I make enough to freeze also for later. I make peas also. A dash of salt, and some butter. broccoli I put in butter, and boil. I don't use a lot of water because it cooks out the nutrients. Get a good pot cook on low, and put a lid over the pot as it cooks, the steam will cook the food quicker. I really use butter, and steam. My grand kids eats it up, and my adult kids loves it also. I can't keep enough around.

you don't need recipes. If your baby's already tried lots of foods, he/she can eat anything you can, just cut up or grated really finely. (When does your pediatrician say to start meats?)

No strawberries, no honey, no milk, no chocolate, no nuts. That was our no-no list.

So whenever we made vegetables of any kind, we'd set some aside, cook them a bit longer, and serve them mashed or cut up with very little seasoning. (Maybe a little butter or salt&pepper...)

Same with pasta or grains or fruit--just go for the softest you can find, and, in the case of fruit, dice it up or use a grater.

Before you know it, your little guy will be eating family meals. (Our kids were exclusively eating what we ate by the time they were 9-10 months old.)

Something I used to make very easy Get some fresh Vsggies like carrots, peas, greenbeans, squash, white potatoes, sweet potatoes,bananns. Wash and scrape,snap, dice into small bits or mash depending on the fruit like apples for instance you must core and peel. Next bring to rolling boil trun down heat and simmer to soft or texture you desire and place into small freezer bags for large to medium batches, I never added sugar to the fruits or salt to the veggies and the babies enjoyed their food. As they got older I would introduce more varities and gave them sticks of raw veggies and fruit chunks to snack on. Later I introduced cooked down chicken, and other meat products. Also I would make beef stew in my slow cooker and pour a small amount in tart shells for home made pot pies or pour some over biscuits, they really loved that, and you can use the ones you pop open to make it easy for yourself. Another favoriate was gramcrackers and peanut butter bananna stacks.

A 7-mth-old doesn't need sugar added to its meals. Orange juice is too acidic and can cause rashes in small babies. Try apple juice or pear juice(diluted with equal amt water). Mashed rice, soft-cooked mashed vegetables/ fruits are good too. Try to introduce only one new food a week. Too many new foods together might make baby sick.

Try this book: Mommy Made and Daddy too! by Martha and David Kimmel

I used this book for my children. They liked the recipes and I still use the pizza dough recipe. It also has some good pointers on children's nutritional needs and when to introduce certain foods.

Good luck!
