If you're 5 weeks out you should be soon transitioning to regular foods (if you haven't done so already). Many of the following foods are appropriate for the soft phase.

1. Salmon croquets

2. Chicken enchilada casserole

3. Mackerel patties

4. Meat loaf

5. Chili beans

6. Blackened catfish

7. Burgers without the bun

8. Grilled chicken salads

9. Rotisserie chicken

10. Omelettes with ham

My go to was pintos and cheese from taco bell or chili from wendy's. YUM. OH. At taco bell I would get a soft taco or burrito and refried beans and bring it home, then dump the insides out of the burrito or taco into a bowl and mix in some pintos and cheese. Add a lil sour cream to that. Delish. That would last me days because I couldn't eat much.

I also liked broccoli cheese soup and cream of chicken soup. Nothing with huge chunks. If you like salmon, try salmon salad instead of tuna salad with pork rinds. Or hummus with pork rinds.

Cheeseburger in a bowl, if you are eating solid foods. Cook up some burger (beef/turkey/chicken, doesn't matter). Toss it into a bowl with some cheese and ketchup.

Instead of scrambled eggs I made deviled eggs or egg salad.

I also ran some ham n bean soup through a blender right quick. Not pureed, but enough to make sure there weren't any huge chunks.

All are super soft and will practically dissolve in your mouth btu are high protein.

Go on Pinterest and do a search. If you're willing to cook there are tons of recipes on there that look amazing.
