Starting on table food - what are the first things you gave your DC?

DS is 9 months and I've starting him on some table food. Basically, mashed up bananas and french toast sticks. He's doing well on both but I'm not really sure what else he can have at this point. Tried pastina but he hated it, haha.

Can anyone share what table foods you gave your DC at this age? I wish there was a chart or something that told me what I could feed him. I'm blanking out on what to give him for breakfast and dinner (and did you still give them some jarred baby foods at this point??).

ETA: He's been on Puffs and cheerios now for several months.

never gave pastina..but I always gave small pieces of pasta!
--Peas..but in the very beginning I would squeeze them so i helped with the popping (not sure if necessary but I feel it helped in the beginning!
--puffs and cheerios (cut in half)
--chicken cut into pea size shapes
--cheese (cheddar also in pea size shapes)
--bread
--basically anything that I can break up into pea size shapes like:
--grapes w/o skin
--any other soft fruit!
