Mushies

Tomorrow I am 3 weeks post op, and getting to move onto mushie foods... Does anyone have any suggestions on different ideas?

I know applesauce is okay... What about tuna? Mashed black Beans? Trying to think of some wood Protein ideas!

I think tuna is ok. Also Greek yogurt and cottage cheese are good. Good luck!

If you can put it in the blender and mush it you can have it. Tuna salad, chicken salad. My instructions said Wendy's chilli in a blender. It was great to eat something else, not drink it, but it is a bit of a boring stage. enjoy.

The blender is your friend... also cottage cheese, scrambled eggs, any soup blenderized.

Oh great. I'm excited to not have soup anymore. Lol talk about boring!

I'm going to stock up on tuna and canned chicken. What about scrambled eggs? I love them!

I bought a rotissaire chicken, it is pretty moist, used a little fat free gravy in the bullet, even some laughing cow low fat cheese.............go for the real chicken :) (it does have the consistancy of thick peanut butter, but really yummy)

I am on mushies too. Cottage cheese and sauce. Refried Beans and salsa. Mushy Cheerios, cream of wheat, oatmeal.

I have also been using rotisserie chicken and blending it with a liquid. I found sugar free buffalo sauce that isn't bad. Avocado is also good.

Boca burgers are also very mushy if you make them in the microwave.

Any others??

Scrambled eggs are fine. I use 2 eggs but only 1 yoke w skim milk... I usually cannot eat it all.

My nutritionist mentioned doing a rotissery chicken in the blender, but I just thought that sounded so weird... Was it really good?

I love avocado! I can eat them just plain, might be a good snack, to eat 1/2 of one?

Cottage cheese is hard for me, but I might just have to push through it and swallow it. I bought some so ill have to try it again, I'm not wasting money on it! Lol

How do you make your oatmeal? Do you put anything in it? I like the little packets that are different flavors, but she said I can't have those because of the sugar.

Wow I'm getting hungry, just got out a salmon fillet to cook for lunch tomorrow. Yum! food again!

After a month on liquids, I remember my first blenderized chicken meal. I sat at the table with a goofy smile on my face. It was really good. A little cheese and liquid - yummo.

Cottage cheese.........I put it in my soup and blenderized it.......just added Protein to the cream Soups.

I couldn't do oatmeal at that stage, just cream of wheat.

I had rotisserie chicken in the blender tonight and it was delicious! I added a little cheese to it and ate it with my puréed carrots. It's the best meal I've had since before my pre-op diet.

The chicken tasted good. Just make sure that you have enough liquid in the processor. I have added broth, salsa, FF gravy, really anything.

For oatmeal, I make mine plain with Water and add just a splash of almond milk. I also add a scoop of unflavored Protein to beef up my protein for the day.

I also can't stand the texture of cottage cheese but I can eat it if I put it in the blender for a little bit. Try to add unsweetened applesauce to it as well.

Sounds good! I'll try it.

I had scrambled eggs this morning with one whole egg and one with no yolk and it was great! My nutritionist said eggs would come at the next stage, but I don't know why I can't go ahead and have it now... So I did.

Thanks for all the help!
