Gruel

Hey, it's pretty much what a savory smootie is, right? Call it thick Soup, a meat base - whatever, its gruel. Lol.

With that said I give you "its not as bad as worse could be" gruel:

8 oz or so of cambells v8 butternut squash soup (this is a 1 1/2 worh of veggie servings)

1 scoop powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury protien, unflavored

1 can shicken spread (I use underwood) 1 can roast beef spread by same

throw it all in a blender, mix till smooth.

soup is 90 cal, 2g protien 18 carbs.

can of roast beef is 260 cal, 16 g protien, 4 carb, chicken is comperable.

so its about 610 calories, makes abotu 2-3 cups of thick gruel, about 52 g protien and 26 carbs.

Not what you would want everyday, but if you are having trouble with protien, its got a veggie boost, too...

PS - dont treat this as a liquid you will be sorry, wait before you drink and try to get in a Fiber supplement too - trust me.

I did, however, mix a little potted meat with my scrambled egg when I was on soft foods, so I can't say much. Perhaps it tastes better than it sounds.
