Ideas for puréed diet phase?

[KrissyMac 3]

Hi everyone- I start purées tomorrow. Do you have any suggestions of foods that were ok puréed? The thought of puréed meat sounds really awful. Any tips! Thanks!

I just pureed tuna with a bit of mayo, relish and mustard to give it a tuna salad taste. It was gross. Nothing really taste all that great these days tho (2 weeks post op). Good luck, let me know if you yet any good ideas.

I puréed BSCBreast, a single baby carrot and some cauliflower mash (made with FairLife milk) with a little bit of chicken broth. I mixed in Protein Powder and it wasn't gross. It was a huge relief from liquids.

Breakfast:

Scrambled eggs (not pureed)

oatmeal (not pureed w/unflavored Protein powder)

Cream of wheat (not pureed w/unflavored Protein powder)

Protein shakes (Isopure - 50g)

Lunch/Dinner (all usually w/unflavored Protein Powder added):

Chili

Roast or corned beef hash

Chunky brand Soups

tuna, chicken or egg salad

chicken burrito puree (see recipe section on this forum)

Tuna casserole puree (see recipe section on this forum)

Shelly's Ricotta bake (see recipe section on this forum or eggface blog)

Pesto chicken (just canned chicken with some jar pesto and a little water)

Saucy meatballs (meatballs, jar marinara sauce & parmesan cheese)

"Snacks":

Protein Shakes (usually my go-to snack)

Protein Water (Nature's Source or Isopure)

Cottage cheese (pureed)

sugar-free Jello and pudding

sugar-free popsicles

Hope this helps!

What kind of volume are you eating with the chili, etc? I had pureed taco Soup tonight and was able to eat 8oz in less than 30 minutes. I just started pureed today. It was a little uncomfortable but went away in less than 15 minutes.

I have been able to get my liquids and protein in since day 2.

My plan called for 1/2 cup portions during the puree stage. The denser the food was (refried Beans, chili, etc), the less I could eat. With Soups, I could eat a little more (maybe 3/4 of a cup), but tried to eat just 1/2 cup, as directed by my NUT. Good luck! The puree stage only lasts for a short period of time.
