If you use Gerbers, make sure you use stage 2 only.  the small 2.5 oz jars because they are strictly meat and water with a tad of cornstarch in it.
No onions or garlic in these.  The ones you want are Ham (no salt added), Chicken, Turkey or Beef with gravy.

I have used baby food, just make sue that it does not have any garlic or onioin, Gerbers is pretty good.
I have also boiled chicken for my soup and held out some before I put in garlic and onion.
