Ideas for soft foods stage

[sleevingbeauty321 7]

What does everybody eat for the soft foods stage? I feel like I'm stuck on Protein Shakes and apple sauce still. What are some healthy soft foods options?

Don't know if you've seen this site before or not, but gets recommended a lot. There are some good recipes on there - http://theworldaccordingtoeggface.blogspot.com/2007/08/pureed-foods.html

For my soft food/pureed stage I didn't do anything crazy. I couldn't do blended foods. I tried once with Soup and it didn't taste right at all. So I stuck with the basics: cottage cheese with a tiny bit of pureed fruit, lots of yogurt, sweet potatoes, refried Beans, scrambled egg with a bit of picante sauce, etc.

One of the best things I had was the ricotta bake recipe that can be found on the link above. That was so damned good I wish I would have made it sooner. Even when I'm out of the pureed stage it's going to be a staple in my diet. It's super easy to make and is really good.
