I am just about 3 weeks post op gastric bypass and looking for more ideas of pureed foods. I am so tired of eggs, refried beans and yogurt. I'm going to try the ricotta bake and smoothies tomorrow, but still need a few ideas to keep it interesting. Can't tolerate tofu or fat free gravy and not allowed to have meat yet. Thanks in advance

My favorite Pureed food is scrambled eggs with 1/4 cup cottage cheese added and a little shredded cheese

My second favorite is pureed chicken, ranch a little hot souse I bake it for 15 Mins with a little cheese it taste just like buffalo chicken it is amazing

This is the southerner in me, but grits are on our my surgeon's list for pureed food. I just got quaker instant grits, heated it with water, added a half scoop of unflavored GNC protein powder and 42g of fat free cheddar cheese. I then divided it into 2 oz servings and stored the leftovers.

Cheesy grits were amazing after a week of liquids!

How about pimento cheese? It's been a staple for me. I never actually pureed anything. I just had softish food like yogurt, canned chicken, pimento and ricotta cheese and chewed thoroughly.

See this is what I have been thinking of doing. I have had zero problems with liquids so far. Knock on wood. And i advance to puree in a few days, but that sounds so gross so i really want to just east softer foods and just chew really well. How is that working for you?

What day does the pureed diet start?

Thanks to everyone for all these great ideas!

Thanks for the cookbook recommendation. I just got it in kindle - GREAT cos my surgeon has given me only very vague liquid to purée to soft to normal eating directions!
