So i'm starting my Mushy stage Monday and im totally straving!! lol so i was curious if anyone has some good ideas food wise for this stage ????

I have been curious about this too since I will be on vacation when I start mushies.

Just had a nutrition class tonight and baby food was mentioned! You'll have to check the label for additives, though. My surgeon also allows toasted bread or crackers for the mushies.

refried beans with a sprinkle of shredded cheese, and salsa if you can tolerate it. canned chicken or tuna salad (I made mine with mayo and a little dill relish). scrambled egg with shredded cheese.

Refried Beans with cheddar and salsa! OMG that sounds good and I'm not even sleeved yet! LOL

I bought "Weight Loss Surgery Cookbook for Dummies". It has quite a few yummy ideas for all stages of post-op. I'm sure I'll use it alot after surgery

Sauté fresh spinach in vegetable or chicken broth (I also threw in some garlic and shallot), when done add nonfat ricotta and a bit of Parmesan cheese and blend/purée with an immersion blender.

Spread puréed mixture in bottom of a small casserole pan and cover with prepared spaghetti sauce (no sugar added) and top with a little more Parmesan cheese. Bake until bubbly. Good for the puréed or mushy stage. I also sometimes add in a small bit of prepared pesto to kick up the flavor a bit.

Is a nice relief after all the sweet Protein shakes. My hubby says we'll use this recipe even after I back on regular food!

Oh my goodness, that sounds delicious! I can't wait to try it!

Ha. I'm eating refried beans with cheese & taco sauce. Right now. I haven't eaten a 1/2 cup yet. But I think I'm going to be able to eat it all.
