I am 3 weeks and 3 days post op and my doctor advanced me onto pureed food.. What can I purée? Does anyone have any recipes or tips for me? I've been eating baby food

I'm 3 weeks post op today and have been on puréed food since Sunday. Some things I've had are refried beans with some cheese melted on top, puréed tuna and egg salad, ricotta cheese with some marinara and cheese on top, as well as various puréed fruits and veggies. All have gone well. It's amazing though how little it takes to feel full.

This is my all time favorite (from theworldaccordingtoeggface blog). It's like lasagna without the noodles. Early in the puree stage, you can lay off the mozz cheese over the top. Enjoy!

Shelly's Baked Ricotta

8 oz of Ricotta Cheese

1/2 cup grated Parmesan

1 large Egg, beaten

1 teaspoon Italian Seasoning

salt & pepper to taste

1/2 cup Marinara Sauce

1/2 cup shredded Mozzarella Cheese

Mix ricotta cheese, parmesan, beaten egg, seasonings together and place in a oven proof dish. Pour marinara on top and top with mozzarella cheese. Bake it in the oven @ 450 for about 20-25 minutes (best) or nuke it till hot and bubbly. I usually made it first in the oven and heated the leftovers in the microwave.
