I started with graham crackers, gerber puffs, cheerios, biter biscuits, whole wheat bagels. I was just very vigilant while they were trying these for the first time. As they got the hang of that, I pretty much stopped doing baby food of any kinds. That's when they switched from a high chair to a booster seat. I sat down next to them at the table, prepared a larger than normal plate of food for myself (all safe for their age and chewing/swallowing ability) and began placing small amounts of food in front of them. When that food was gone, I added more.
She can pretty much eat whatever you're eating, as long as it's not honey or shell fish (or any that I've forgotten about that you're supposed to wait on) and not something she can choke on.
Just put it in front of her and see what she does. If she's definitely not interested, she'll let you know. Then you can back off and try again later. Good luck, and have fun!
