I'm on week three and allowed mushy. So what is considered mushy? Is Chicken Rice Soup considered mushy?

It seems like each surgeon has their own definition of "mushy" or "soft," but I'd stay away from anything with rice or Pasta, especially this early. Both can swell in your stomach and make you very uncomfortable.

I would also say no, no rice no pasta no bread.

Beans

Cottage cheese

Mashed potatoes

Yams

Things that mash easily with a fork.

Thanks ladies! I did a Protein pudding instead.

Good choice!

I am a huge fan of fat free spicy refried beans with a little fat free cheddar and fat free sour cream. Definitely was a go to for me in the soft foods stage! I was also lucky and enjoyed a scrambled egg almost every day.

Thanks for all the tips! Tomorrow I start my 'puréed' part and am pretty happy about it lol
