Not Eating Solids

My youngest is almost two years old, and still not really eating solids.
She is breastfed, and at the heavier end of the healthy weight range for her age, so is it even a problem?
I've never experienced this before.

I'd get her checked, it can be a sign of other issues

I would be getting a referral to a pedeatrition to work out what's going on.

Good work getting that far with the BF'ing. If by solid you mean any food I would be worried but if she is eating most foods like pasta and other soft food just not a tough steak I would be less worried. However when it comes to your kids I would check anything with a doctor or the health hotline.

This is my question, just wanted to elaborate.
I do have other children on the autism spectrum, so that is a possibility.
She eats occasionally (either finger food or few spoons of something else, maybe once a day) and seems to have no problem doing it, but usually she says no. She's eating what my others did at 8 months!
Her speech seems fine for her age, and she is also very active and happy.
I've tried reducing her breastmilk, but she just drank more water instead of eating more food.
