Personally I wouldn't give solids in the late afternoon/evening at this age - Maybe give something at about 10 and then again at 2, but stick to milk after that?
Pureed Fruit can upset their tummies in the begining, and baby rice is just bland and yuck, so I used to give Abby pureed carrot or butternut squash (sweet potato works well too) which worked really well, or try some baby porridge if you prefer?
It really is all just trial and error at this stage, soon you'll work out what works best, and things will get easier.
