In "soft food" I can now add PB2 powder (loveloveloveit) to my shakes and I can have creamy PB for a "meal" I get some that is no sugar/salt added.

So, for my diet, from my nut Peanut Butter is ok.

Peanut Butter has too much fat to use as a primary Protein source. Have you looked at one of the defatted peanut powders? (PB2, pbFit)? You could add some of the powder to a recipe.

There are alot of foods you can try. Tuna, baked fish, salmon, cottage cheese, hummus, beans (add cheese), ricotta bake (recipe online), greek yogurt, home-made Protein Shakes (watch sugar), chicken salad..

Experiment and see what works.

I add Protein powders to everything, including my morning eggs and my afternoon yogurt. I want it up to 100+g.

I add natural peanut butter to my Greek yoghurt - SO yum! I am 3 weeks post surgery.

Fish, ricotta, cottage cheese worked well for me until I could handle solids. Peanut Butter has around 150 calories for 7g of Protein so isn't great as a main source of protein.

Peanut Butter and nuts in general will betray you.

Calorically dense........beware.

Also they have high potential as grazing foods......beware.

OKCpirate may I ask-how do you add protein powder to eggs? Any recipes ? Ty

I use this: http://www.pipingrock.com/whey-protein/whey-protein-isolate-powder-unflavored-39404

dissolves well in coffee (after the coffee cools a little), yogurt and eggs.
