Brookstein reacted to shrinkinmama in Tell Me Your Favorite Pureed MealsHooray! I was so excited to star my puree...you would think that I was eating for the first time ever. So some things that i eat are
Egg salad, made by pureeing eggs, a little miracle whip, sweet relish, mustard and salt and pepper
Crab salad, made by pureeing imitation crab, miracle whip, papricka, onion powder
Tuna/chicken salad, made by pureeing the canned tuna or chicken with miracle whip, sweet relish, salt and pepper. Basically any kind of salad you can puree as long as you dont add the Pasta.
Also, a receipe I heard from another member was to mix a can of tuna, 1/2 cup cottage cheese, and a 1/2 cup of refried Beans and blend it all togeher. I did it and it was actually pretty good.
You can try ricotta chees, parmasean and some no/low sugar marinara sause, heated up or baked.
I have also made refried beans with greek yogart as sour cream and then some cheese melted on top.
I have also had some keifer drinkable ygart.
I went to Aldi and i bought some frozen crab cakes and put them in the microwave and then just pureed it wiht some lemon juice. Not sure if you like seafood but it was super yum.
I also have some canned Soup that is high in Protein and lower in fat that i have pureed and sometimes I add unflavored protein power to it to make it higher in protien.
You can get oatmeal, malt o meal or anything like that too and make that in the microwave and add milk or some gree yogart and a bit of cinnamon and that is good too.
Oh and one last thing... you can puree a little bit of fruit or use baby food with the greek yogart and or cottage cheese for a high protein punch too,.
and I almost forgot i bought some laughing cow cheese triangles...they are super creamy and easy to eat along with Peanut Butter but that is only occasionally cuase its high in fat but for a little treat once and while its good.
I have been at this for a week so you can pretty much puree anything as long as its high in protein. Let me know if you have other questions.
