ANY APRIL SURGERIES?....

[aparker28110 7]

I don't know how.you're doing it! I get 40-50 oz liquid a day- my.normal day consists of a.protein shake- 2 oz cottage cheese.w/5-6 pinto Beans and sugar free.Popsicles. Normally no dinner..just.too full!

I'm making myself eat every 2 hrs as directed by my dietician...she said if we stay too far under 800-1000 calories that I can hit a major plateau and I didn't want that at all

Cottage cheese, scrambled eggs, sf Jello, sf pudding, mashed potatoes, sf applesauce, refried Beans ( like pintos and cheese), and believe it or not the blended chicken isn't too bad- I got a few suggestions on here from others that have been good for me. I bought chicken in the can from walmart-pureed it and topped it w ff cheese salsa and sour cream and its pretty much like Mexican chicken. Also topped w a little spaghetti sauce and parmesan cheese which tastes like chicken parm. I've also done tuna blended w ff mayo. I have been able to tolerate them because I've alw ays liked chicken salad and tuna salad anyways. I've done small portions of these, like 2 oz at a time.

White chicken chili puréed is quite good (mine isn't too spicy). My dr wants me to eat 1/4 c Protein 1/4 c fruit/veggie so I've had butternut parsnip Soup, white asparagus soup, and various puréed fruits as well.

What's the recipe for white chic chilli?

I've also used the one in my Betty Crocker cookbook. I'll be honest, I never follow a recipe exactly so these are just guides.

Another thing I've liked is boneless chicken breast in the crock or Dutch oven with a jar of salsa. Cook till meat flakes apart and add 3/4 to a full brick of cream cheese (turns a pink color). That's ok puréed and my family eats it as flautas or tacos.

Thanks for the suggestions!!! They sound yummy! What about the texture tho? I think that's what scares me about puréed food!! Lol.. chicken in a can? Is that like tuna? I'm not sure I've ever seen it..

Btw I forgot to add my email address so I can be added to the group.. Riss523@aol.com

The chicken in a can is really just like chunks of chicken breast. They (walmart ) have a great value brand that's based in like a Tomato basil that's actually really good. They also have original that's just Like chicken breast. The texture works fine for me. I have texture issues as well. This is probably my limit.

I don't have issues with the texture when it is in a more soup/stew form. Plain ground chicken though is a bit off putting for me.

I'm going to check it out. Walmart is right down the hill from me so I walk there to get my walking exercise in without being stuck on a treadmill at the gym!!! Before surgery I would usually drive there!!! If its tuna like texture I can deal with that! But like you guys not much more puréed than that!!!
