Favorite Purée foods?



Recommended Posts

Hi all, I'm sure you're all asked about this a bit, but I also just wanted to talk lol. I've been feeling pretty good and my surgeon cleared me for puree foods today, I was so excited. Well I found myself at KFC getting mashed potatoes for lunch then Taco Bell getting mushy Beans with nacho cheese and sour cream. I am pretty sure this wasn't what my surgeon had in mind, but I've been so over liquids and Soups I wanted something different.

Does anyone have any tasty recommendations for their puree stage that were quick and easy to grab? Or stored well once prepared?

I made a ricotta bake and portioned into tupperware and froze. Portioned things for smoothies and froze so that I could pull out and blend and go. Made cheddar, broccoli and cauliflower Soup and froze into portions etc. I meal prepped for the whole 2 weeks on puréed, in one day and froze everything. There are many great recipes on Pinterest for all the Bariatric diet stages. Oh and eggs. I ate eggs until I couldn't eat eggs anymore! I literally despise them now.

I did quite a bit of canned chicken with nonfat mayo added to it and some salt, pepper, and garlic. It was one of my favorite things, plus you get a lot of your Protein that you need with the chicken.< /p>

I also liked nonfat refried Beans with light sour cream and a couple dashes of hot sauce, mashed sweet potatoes, and Egg Beaters, which are great because they are high in Protein and fat free.

My plan says that eggs are in the "soft food" stage, but you guys can eat them during the pureed stage?

Yes, I was allowed to have scrambled eggs during the pureed phase. But I couldn't have hard boiled eggs until the soft stage, which is where I am now.

I ate pate, low-fat goat cheese, bruschetta, eggplant spread, hummus, and more. I was so happy to be off liquids that I only wanted delicious things. costco also carries these Beans in the refrigerated section that were a lifesaver. They are fresh, not canned, organic, and come in multiple delicious flavors.

I love plan puréed chicken or turkey. You can add a little BBQ Sauce, or ketchup or mayo. Delicious! My doctor and his nutritionist says fat free mayo is high in sugar, so they say to use regular mayo.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
