For baby led weaning:

Once your baby starts to grab, you can try offering a wedge of frittata that they can pick up along with one slice of avocado, and one slice of tomato.

Finger foods:

Once your baby gains dexterity and develops a pincer grasp, you can try chopping the frittata into bite sized pieces and serve with bite sized pieces of avocado and tomato on the side.
