Vegetarians beware on this one...
When Mom was visiting, we also picked up fresh filet mignon at the farmers market. The cuts were big, so before we seasoned them to go on the grill, we set aside a small cut for baby C. Time for her first taste of beef...
I made up this recipe, and baby C seems to like it just fine. Saute the small bits of beef with diced onion in a bit of olive oil.
While the beef & onions cook, put a quarter cup of macaroni or other pasta into boiling water to cook.
When the beef is looking pretty much well done (you definitely want meats cooked all the way through before feeding baby), pour some plain tomato sauce into the skillet and let it simmer on low until the pasta is cooked.
Then, put the drained pasta together with the beef/onion/tomato sauce into the food processor and blend away! This came out pretty thick, so I had to add a little bit of water to make it blend together. It was good though, to leave some small chewy texture in the mix from the meat & pasta so that baby C can practice using her two chompers. Just make sure all the chewy bits are small enough to easily slide down the throat without any choking hazards.
