table food for 7 month old

I have been reading a bit in BLW here and it sparked my interest.  What homemade meals do you recommend for my 7 month old.  She has no teeth( not sure if that even matters)  she has been able to self feed teething biscuits, toast sticks and a hunk of a waffle.

I started out with veggies after spoon feeding her meal to her because of course she couldn't feed herself a lot at first. I then added pasta (rotini noodles cut in half) then I added chicken and I have done turkey a few times. Last night I cooked ground meat for hamburger helper and I put her a couple of chunks of that on her tray. She does pretty good and she doesn't have any teeth. 

For practice during snack time give your LO some Puffs.

Thanks!  i have some puffs i will definatly try.  I was thinking of maybe crockpotting chicken and veggies and shredding the chicken.  How small do you cut up the veggies for your LO

I actually buy a bag of frozen mixed veggies. They are perfect bite size. I only have to cut the green beans in half!

We tried real food for the first time last night and gave DD shredded chicken breasts and green beans.  She loved them both!

whole wheat pita bread dipped in yogurt or hummus is good
