Hi yalllll!!!

I was wondering what are some of y’all favorite meals in the puréed portion of the post diet?

I want something to look forward to lol (about a week out today and I’m DEHYDRATED !!!)

Let's see... I had chicken curry, chicken alfredo, there was Thai something, even did Mongolian BBQ. Basically I pureed my favorites using the meat and a little sauce for moisture/flavor. Protein first, in quantity at least, it's hard to tell once it's pureed.

I always went for big bang for meals: big flavor, big spice, big heat, small quantity.

Good luck,

Tek

mine was KFC mash potato and Gravy

I really struggled during the Puree stage so i just went with what worked for me

Refried beans with melted cheese on top was a fave.

I cook from scratch for my family every day so I just pureed whatever they were having with extra sauce/gravy. My absolute fave from that period was a roast lamb dinner - loads of lamb, some veg, some gravy. Sooooo tasty I still remember it after the bland liquids/shakes phases.

You can purée most things. Just use gravy, stock, milk, yoghurt, Mayo, etc. to keep it moist & drop of the spoon consistency. Add herbs & spice to taste.

I was allowed instant rolled oats (with extra milk to keep it thin) & scrambled eggs (again with extra milk so very soft). I also mashed boiled eggs, & puréed tinned salmon with Mayo (though it tasted pretty revolting). Also puréed very slow cooked meat & vegetable soups. I also ate yoghurt & drank yoghurt drinks. Friend swore she ate puréed chicken with gravy every day. It may come down to what tastes ok to you (I threw out the salmon).

chicken curry, mashed potatoes, and vegies purée are the tastiest dishes for me. I can eat it every day, and will never get bored with that food

You know, sometimes we eat what we are supposed to, and sometimes we eat what we need to HAVE, LOL! Instant mashed potatoes, refried beans with some cheese never hurt my stomach. Plain old Campbell's Tomato Soup is still in my rotation, and I am 5 months out. Egs, prepared any way, even hard boiled, as those can be chewed down. Sometimes I eat something I shouldn't, and it lets me know, and I retreat back to these old standbys. You'll find your faves....

thanks this is reassuring!!! I’m dreaming of the day I can eat something other than SF jello lol ? I did just order some stuff to prepare so I’m excited to find some of my faves like you mentioned.

today I had SF pudding for the first time and oddly wasn’t as satisfying as I thought it might be
