I bought a bunch of samples of Protein powders -- different flavors and brands. It was nice to get some variety when all my meals were Protein Drinks.

It looks like since you're asking for recipes that you aren't on a liquid pre-op diet but calorie restricted. I just stuck with the basics like Protein Shakes and grilled chicken. I honestly didn't cook much and relied on Protein shakes. I was determined not to have a fatty liver. How about some cottage cheese? Start eating the foods you'll be eating post-op to be prepared for that lifestyle. Looks like I wasn't much help here . . . I'm not a big cook.

I’m sorry not really recipes but stuff you did to get you through the liquid phase of the pre op and post op part.
