how to get meats to go down okay

I need input on how others cook meats, so that they don't get stuck. I have 7ccs fill and can't eat bread plus many other things. I'm thinking I need to put chicken broth or sauces on everything. Any help with this is appreciated.

P.S. only 3 months out from my surgery. Have lost 45 or so pds.

Use moist cooking methods rather than dry cooking methods. Stew, casserole etc goes down far easier than grilled or fried. Use sauces, gravies. Don't overcook. Eat chicken thigh rather than chicken breast as it is moister. Avoid reheated meats as they can cause problems.

Cook your meats in a crockpot, add some cream of chicken or other cream base soup or sauce or gravy. It will be very tender and will go down so much easier. I use the crockpot for most of my meals now!

Thanks for your replies! I guess I'm going to have to get a Crockpot. I know it makes meats moister. I'm used to eating chicken breasts that I would grill (before band), but that isn't working anymore. I will get a crockpot tomorrow. :) thanks again. Gail

. Thanks Elsie for your reply. I'm going to apply your ways this week. The dry/grilled isn't working. Thanks again. Gail

You may also consider eating fish instead of chicken and alternate sources of Protein like Beans, tofu, etc.

Vegetarian options of meat often go down easier than actual meat.
