Hello all!

I'm so freakin excited, I get to start pureed foods Friday! I enjoy cooking and already started planning out what I want to prep and make....I miss MEAT! I'm gonna get my money's worth on my food processor.

Sooooo what are your favorite purees and puree recipes? I've already bookmarked Shelley's ricotta bake and some chicken salad...what else is tasty? Give me your recs! TIA!! ????

I was coming here to post the link to Shelley's Baked Ricotta when I saw the subject of your post, but I see you've already found that site.

Meatloaf and mashed potatoes

Sweet potato pear and broccoli. It sounds gross but oh so yummy. Steam until soft and puree.

Two Trader Joe's turkey meatballs (no breadcrumbs!) With a scoop of ricotta and marinara. Delish!

I never did purée any food in a blender or food processor. If you have teeth you should be able to chew your food to a puréed texture.

I didn't purée much, either, but one of my first pureed was chicken chili. I used my immersion blender and it tasted amazing after all the sweet in the liquid phase!!!

I'm currently on purees and loving the baked ricotta, greek yogurt, refried beans, and Laughing Cow cheese triangles! Just don't forget about the protein. The only thing I've tried on purees that I didn't care for was oatmeal...weird because I loved it before, but I don't need all of those carbs anyway!
