Meal plans for a 13 month old?

i was told by the dieticien at the infant health clinic that it is always important to let the baby decide how much they eat so if youve made a bowl of dinner and half way through he starts getting distracted and refuses to eat stop feeding him and if he finishes the whole bowl and still seems interested give him a yoghurt or some fruit there is no exact portion size as every baby and every day is so different.As for meals my12 month old son eats everything we eat even chilli because I want him to eat our food when hes older rather than having to make 2 meals every night. the list of foods he likes sounds reasonably versatile you could give him scrambled eggs with a sneaky bit of chopped spinach and grated carrot mixed in on toast for breakfast, yoghurt for a morning snack cheese sandwich for lunch, a banana and some sultanas for an afternoon snack and ground beef cooked with very finely chopped vegetables hidden in there and a little cheese on top that would be a perfectly nutritious days meals. My son doesnt really love vegies (just like his dad) so I hide them in things and I have to make every thing extra tasty anyway sorry bout the novel hope I helped
