My daughter 19 months will not eat anything that is mushy. In general
she prefers finger food.
Like she will not eat yogurt, mac&cheese or for that matter even
toasted bread - if we spread butter on it - she will not eat but she
will eat bread without any butter or jam.
As a result - she has a very limited choice of food and then she gets
bored eating them so often.
Is there any suggestion how I can teach her to eat nutritous stuff even
if it is mushy?
Also can anybody recommend me a book of recipes for toddler food which
is fast and easy to make? and if you have in mind any nutritous pick-up
food which your toddler/kid likes and maybe I can try that? She likes
scrambled eggs, hash browns, bread. but no cheese. She likes plain rice
but if you add soup or anything she doesnot.
Thanks in advance.

Scrambled eggs are mushy if I make it :-)
Sounds like a healthy diet to me and I wouldn't worry as long as she's
drinking milk, or having other dairy products.
I don't spread anything on bread/toast out of choice because it's messier.
Both of mine like their rice or pasta on it's own without sauce. In fact
mine would like to eat pasta without anything with it.
It would be more of a problem (to me) if she wasn't eating finger food.
