How to prepare each food
Avocado
A ripe avocado is one of the easiest first foods. Peel it, remove the pit, and mash the soft flesh smooth, or leave it slightly lumpy as your baby gets used to texture. You can also offer a thick finger-length wedge to hold and gnaw on. It is naturally soft and squishes easily between two fingers.
Smooth or lightly mashed, or a thick finger-length wedge to self-feed.
Avocado is soft and low-risk, but a very ripe one is slippery and can be hard for little hands to hold. Mash it or coat pieces lightly to help with grip, and always keep portions soft enough to squish between two fingers.
Egg
Hard-cook the egg until both white and yolk are solid, then mash it smooth, or offer a well-set scramble or a soft omelet. A small amount, about a third of an egg, is plenty for a first taste.
Serve as a smooth mash, soft scramble curds, or finely chopped omelet strips.
