Hey all. I'm having my surgery on Monday.

I'll be on a liquid diet for awhile after. Do any of you have suggestions for improving the flavor of broth post op? Is there anything I can safely add to make it more palatable?

I use powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury chicken broth Protein powder when I want chicken flavor and I use the unflavored to my other Soups. I make my own Soup or sometimes I buy can soup, strain it and add protein to it.

good luck with your surgery!

A couple squeezes of lime livens it up. Also, if you make it enmasse (I usually boil up 3 gallons of broth at a time from bones) you can add rice, and the rice adds a slightly nutty flavor. skim it out before eating, or puree it if you want for a more intense flavor, but beware athe added calories and starch.

Personally, I hated broth immediately after surgery, it was too salty for me, and I still can't stand chicken soup anything...It's strange, but your tastes will change after surgery.
