Baby food tastes terrible lol, I wouldn't do it, you have better options!
Try a few of these, though they sound sketchy, they've gotten me through several strep throats:
Soft casseroles. Things like breakfast casserole (grits, cheese, egg, sausage) because if you chop it up fine and bake it, it has a smooth texture. I make a chicken casserole of sorts, with super soft cooked linguine chopped up, cream of mushroom soup, fine chopped broccoli, parmesan cheese, bit of whipping cream, etc.
Use your blender, lol. I'm dead serious. If you eat foods mixed together already, like meat loaf and mashed potatoes, soft tacos and the like, you're already combining it, so if you pop it in the blender, it really won't make a huge difference, unless you're really picky about food looks! I was DESPERATE for Taco Bell after two weeks of a super-sore throat, so I stuck two soft tacos in a blender and voila, easy to eat. Yes, I know how gross that sounds, but hey it tasted like a taco
Refried beans are good for protein, topped with a bit of cheese and sour cream makes them more edible
Risotto might make a nice change from oatmeal and such
Soups are always a good choice. Beef soups usually involve very well cooked beef for easy eating, mushroom soup, split pea, etc.
