Homemade pizza is also good - bake a small round cut out of ready roll puff pastry with whatever toppings you fancy. Soft goats cheese makes a good base with tomatoes on top.
Hope this helps.

DS2 isn't quite ready for cutlery so we often have things that he'll eat as finger food, although he doesn't mind getting messy!
How about:
Pasta with mixed veg, tinned salmon & grated cheese
Roast dinner - chopped up meat, roast potatoes, veg & yorkshire pudding
I make her homemade chicken nuggets/breaded chicken.
Parmesan chicken (literally v thin chicken breast, dipped in egg white, then parmesan and grilled.
Chicken and butter bean burgers
Sweetcorn pancakes
Burgers
Frankfurters
Fishcakes
Sausages
Stuffed pasta either with a sauce or just butter and cheese
Tortilla pizza
Carbs wise she will only really eat potato atm so she is living off of potato waffles, wedges, smilers, hash browns, roast potatos! Occasionally she will eat a bit of yorkshire pudding and a couple of pieces of pasta but I think she likes the soft, melt in the mouth texture of potato. She used to love stuff like garlic bread, flatbreads but won't eat more than a couple of bites of stuff like that now.
My niece is a going through a real fussy eating phase and will often only eat sausages and cooked penne - totally plain. Not even with butter on!!
My DS wasn't keen on eggy bread until I put jam on it and then he devoured the lot, probably not that healthy but nice as a treat now and again xx
