Does anyone have any suggestions for pureed food



Recommended Posts

I've reached the point where I can eat puréed foods. I need suggestions on foods. I'm a big fish eater and I would love some salmon... Hellllllp

I pureed salmon with a little bit of tartar sauce or remoulade. Go to the super market and find where they have all the sauces. Pick a couple that you think would be good on salmon and give them a whirl.

You can buy the little pouches of salmon in the canned meat aisle, too. I found the lemon dill salmon was delicious pureed, I liked the little bit of extra flavor it added.

I played around with the different flavors of tuna as well, like pureeing the thai spice tuna with Sriracha sauce, and the hickory smoked tuna with low calorie BBQ Sauce. I pureed chicken with marinara sauce, then heated it up in the microwave and melted some mozzarella cheese on top for a kind of Italian style chicken. It was good!

I used to get Thai curry at a local restaurant and put it in my blender :)

That was always a treat!

I blended tuna with greek yogurt and pickle juice. It was awesome. Today I made an omelette with that tuna.

tuna omelette (puree) 16.5 grams of protein!

I've been on pureed for 6 days, and I was also dying for fish. I poached a 4oz. salmon steak in caramelized onion, lemon juice, garlic and fresh dill and chives. I cooked it JUST til done, so it would be juicy and slide down easily. I promptly took a small, scrumptious bite, chewing 30x, and after swallowing, it caused me some major discomfort. I was so bummed! I probably had 3 - 4 bites before giving up. The next day, I added some mayo and parmesan cheese. Delicious and it went down a little easier, but it still caused me notable discomfort. By far, it has been the most uncomfortable thing I've eaten. That tells me I'm just not ready for something that bulky yet.

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
