For a 7-month-old baby, vegetable meatballs can generally be a suitable alternative to finger foods starting at this age. Since your baby's chewing reflex isn't fully developed yet, it's important that the meatballs are very soft, mashable, and cut into sizes that won't cause choking. You can cook boiled potatoes, carrots, zucchini and other vegetables until soft, mash them, and bind with a small amount of breadcrumbs or oat flour, then cook gently in oil-free frying or baking. No salt or spices should be added. If your baby is trying a new food for the first time, start with a single vegetable type and add new ingredients at intervals of a few days to monitor for possible allergies. When trying for the first time, always observe closely, and if there's difficulty eating or gagging, you can try again with smaller pieces. Like with any new food, introducing vegetable meatballs gradually according to your baby's response is safest.
