LBSept09 33 Posted July 12, 2012 Those both trend to be quite dry going down... Blend them for sure Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
honk 780 Posted July 13, 2012 No crackers they are not a mushie. I mixed canned chicken with laughing cow low fat cheese. A lot less fat/cals than mayo and you can heat it in the microwave. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
khlut 7 Posted July 13, 2012 I put tuna with cottage cheese. I never blended anything. I ate yogurt, Jello, fruit cups, canned green Beans, tilapia and eggs. I told my Dr I wasn't blending meat and he was ok With the above. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
☠carolinagirl☠ 18,721 Posted July 13, 2012 crackers were not on my mushies/real soft foods. try and stick with the tuna/chicken (very shredded/pureed) with ff mayo just to be on the safe side. also refried Beans w/ff shredded melted cheese is also very filling....if in question, always refer to your surgeon or the nurses (i called mine when i had questions like this) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mountainnurse 19 Posted July 13, 2012 Check with your doctor instructions. Whole wheat crackers were on my mushie stage. I waited until near the end to try them though. I LOVED LF refried Beans and cheese! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
