Happy New Year everyone!

I have a quick question about pureed food.

I really haven't been eating too much, and to be honest I haven't taken ANY vitamins since my surgery on the 16th of Dec. It's my new years resolution to start taking them regularly.

Since I'm on the pureed stage now - i was wondering if I could eat pureed potatoes. I've been staying away from dense carbs, so I haven't tried mashed potatoes - but the binder they gave me recommends it.

Thoughts?

I'm on purees too ( I don't actually purée them I chew a million times and swallow knock on wood I've been doing pretty good) my dr said that if you're craving potatoes sweet potatoes or yams are a better choice.

I was on puree the first 2 weeks. They moved me to chewing right away after that. My favorite pureed food was Progresso Black Bean soup, south western style. I added hot sauce and chicken. One of the things I really like about soup is that because there is so much liquid, you get to have more. A cup of soup is pretty easy, and I still can't have more than ¼ cup of solid foods. I also like Progresso Tuscan Style Veggie, with Navy Beans. Though lately, I've been making my own.
