How to get baby interested in solids

My 8 month old is just not interested in eating solids. Whenever I try to feed her she completely turns her head to the side and presses her lips together.

She is breastfed and eats about every 3 hours. I have tried giving her food at different times of the day and at different intervals after she’s had breast milk like an hour after, two hours or three and every time it’s the same thing.

I tried thin purées, thicker cereals, and mashed up cooked foods. She refused to let me or anyone feed her. I try giving her the spoon and she just throws it around. She occasionally gets some in her mouth and normally gags a bit. If I put food on the tray she doesn’t grab it and bring it to her mouth to eat it.

Any advice on how to get her to eat?
