Protein snacks soft food stage

What are some good high protein snacks for soft food stage? I'd like to start moving away from protein drinks. Thanks!

Homemade cheese crisps and hummus were one of my go-to faves during this stage. Also ate a lot of string cheese, greek yogurt, cottage cheese with different spices... Etc.

More like a twist on a protein drink. I bought an Inspire Mint Chip protein drink mix and freeze it to eat like ice cream. The consistency is more icy than creamy, but I take longer to eat it and I can pretend it's ice cream.

I second the cheese, love cheese.

I wasn’t allowed to snack until solid foods - three meals only in purées & soft. And then it was one snack: a high protein yoghurt (was already eating that as a meal option in purée stage because I stopped shakes once liquids ended) or soft cheese (I liked Jarlsberg & string). After a couple of weeks I could have certain fruit as a snack option too or sometimes ate a wedge of cucumber (peeled) sprinkled with salt. Didn’t have other snacks until I was starting maintenance & I needed to up my calories. But plans are different. Check with your dietician for ideas that are suitable within your plan.

PS - Yoghurt drinks are great too - blend your high protein yoghurt with milk.
