I am not the best cook in the world but since my daughter has been eating solids i have been trying my best to cook healthy recipes rather than those jars. Just wondered if anyone has any simple recipes for me to try?

Keep it simple! My daughter absolutely loved chopped up soft foods like avacado, tofu, canned fruit (no sugar added), and canned veggies (no added salt). Things that you might think are gross, she might love! One thing I did to get her to eat her jar food (like mixed veggies) was to add some of those chunky foods to it, like tofu. She was so glad to be eating something solid, that she would eat anything from a jar after that. Good luck and just keep trying lots of different things. Just keep the salt and sugar to a minimum. Getting her to eat a variety of things now will pay off in the future. :)

I agree with IMS but just be careful when addi ng salt if you are gonna feed your baby your own food, Mashed veg, with a little gravy has always been a good one, babies love it, Also try finger foods, stuff they can pick up to suck and chew, your baby may not have teeth yet, but their gums are very hard, ..
Also buy an ice cube tray, try freezing what you make, then you wont have to worry everyday about cooking for your baby, cos you will have a batch in the freezer....
Good luck

Pineapple Yogurt Juice
Assuming your daughter isn't allergic to Yogurt or Pineapple Juice.
Put equal parts plain yogurt and pineapple juice into the blender(You use the empty yogurt container to measure the juice), blend it, and serve it either in a bottle or whatever she likes to drink from. We called it "Yogurt Juice" and my little ones loved it. It is inexpensive and the pediatrician said the idea was great.

Tuna Patties are great for kids, and they are good finger foods. They are so simple to make.
Otherwise you can try Pastry Rolls, And lots of Home Made mini foods :)

I know it was hell for me with my first son too.
Use Butternut, broccoli, gem squash, carrots, potato, baby marrows, pumpkin...
U can mix any of these and steam them together...
My son loved marrow, butternut and broccoli which i steamed, mashed with some butter and added some marmite for taste...
Try it.... Good luck
