The only foods that are off limits still are things like shellfish, honey, nut products/peanut butter and any known allergen foods. As long as you cut into small bites they should be able to pick up or start using a simple toddler spoon/fork to self feed. My son is 10 months old and he loves eating what we eat. He does great with it. Try macaroni and cheese, steamed chunks of vegetables that are cut into small pieces if necessary, mashed potato or sweet potato, avacado, fish sticks, fresh fruit cut into small pieces, teddy grahams (the cinnamon ones don't have honey and aren't overly flavored so they are ok. My son LOVES these!), goldfish crackers, pudding/yogurt, tofu cut into small pieces, rice, toast with melted cheese on it, cheese cubes, cooked cereals, cheerios, whole milk, sliced turkey rolled up with or without a slice of cheese. If your child has a rather sophisticated palate (mine does) they may enjoy sharing with mom or dad on some or all of these: grilled cheese on whole grain with potato leek soup from Panera bread, BBQ, Chinese, Mexican, baked stuffed potato, toasted bagel pieces with cream cheese, pancakes (no syrup because of sugar content, but I mash up fresh fruit into a puree for my son. He loves them with peaches, banana, strawberries or cinnamon apples), corn muffins, jello cubes, etc.. A 1 year old should be able to eat table food that you eat.

Chop down the mince into small pieces so theyre not too tough to chew and cut the spaghetti into small pieces too. Good thing is with spaghetti is that if its swallowed whole they dont choke! Sausage and cheesy mash is always a good one (sausages cooked under grill or oven). Add the cheese, milk and butter whilst mashing the potato - milk last as it cools down the mash. For afters my daughter loves chopped grapes, apples, bananas and strawberries in a bowl covered in (or on the side) rice pudding. My daughter always loved spaghetti bolognaise.
