My favorite mushy meal



Recommended Posts

So, I know this isn't the food/recipes forum, but I just had to share my favorite fulfilling mushy dinner so far.

I put a can fat free refried Beans, a half a cup of salsa, about a tablespoon of cottage cheese, and a sprinkle of taco seasoning in the food processor and pureed until smooth. I then measured out a half cup of the mixture, sprinkled some shredded cheese on top and warmed it up in the microwave. I finished it off with a small dollop of sour cream. It was shockingly tasty and very filling! My husband was having a very Mexican dinner that I couldn't have, and I didn't even feel deprived! I was so pleased with myself! lol. thumbup.gif

Thank you for sharing this with me. I can't wait to get to "mushie". This will be one of the first things I try.

Thanks for sharing that! I am still waiting for insurance approval but I still like to plan ahead! I was VERY worried about "mushy stage food" really not into that texture- but this sounds good. THX

Other than the cottage cheese, it sounds like pintos and cheese from taco bell. That's always been one of my favorites!!

BTW, I love your screen name. That is so cute!

Thanks Cindy! My name reflects my figure: short and stout. wink.gif Are the pintos and cheese at Taco Bell pureed like refried Beans?

Deli- You're welcome! Do you have to stay on liquids for three weeks?

Yes, they are refried Beans with taco sauce and melted cheese. Only 180 calories and 10g Protein.< /span>

My doctor make us stay on liquids for 2-3 weeks. I am doing really good and am losing weight so I think he may advance me when I see him on Monday.

I'm not allowed Beans or salsa (but I don't like them anyway so I guess that's ok) But if you like this, you might like chicken with the taco seasoning, cheese and fat free sour cream. I'm on pureed and have been putting that in my bullet and it's delicious! Which taco seasoning do you use? I love the el paso taco seasoning!

That doesn't make sense. Beans are really high in Protein and salsa has virtually no calories.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
