      I had surgery 4/23. I'm on purée until Thursday. A LOT of these suggestions sound more like "soft" food phase to me. Purée should be baby food or apple sauce consistency so unless you are blending

    I started puree foods yesterday! I was so looking forward to it but everything I fix I take 1-2 bites and its gross. I had scrambled eggs yesterday and refried beans with cheese today. It's been really hard to get my protein in too. Feeling like I'm failing but not gonna let it get me down!

    Sorry to hear you are struggling. It just goes to show ya, how different our bodies are with everything, including healing. I wish you the best of luck on your healing, and hopefully you'll get a taste in your mouth you'll enjoy soon.????

    Pureed winter squash (the frozen kind is so easy): you can make it plain, or have it with cinnamon and sweetener, or puree it with a little bit of parmesan cheese.

    Pureed pumpkin with egg white, cinnamon, sweetener, and milk…sort of like crustless pumpkin pie.

    Pureed tofu with soy sauce or teriyaki sauce. Easy but delicious!
