Raw food for babies

Hi there I am new to raw foods and am just starting out myself. I also have a 7 month old daughter and am wondering how to go about intoducing her to raw food since she doesn't have teeth. I am breastfeeding and have started her on cooked, pureed vegitables and rice/barley cereals and am wondering if there is a better way to start her off early on the raw food diet. I have read from one source that recommends breastfeeding soley for the first 2 years until teeth are well developed and then starting on raw food diet. This is a little too extreme for me as I woudl think by then she will be too picky to try out a variety of foods. I don't want to wait until she has teeth to introduce her to solids. Any ideas???
