Mushies

[thinkt2013 74]

Is finely ground turkey and mashed bananas considered mushies? I keep seeing people eating these things, but i wasn't sure. I will ask my dr Monday, just curious what the consensus was. .

My dr didn't have a mushie stage, he called it blenderized and pureed.........if you could whip it up in a blender it was okay. That was after full liquids for 1 week then introduced ground meats and bananas came in then as well.

Good luck.

Thank you! Yes, i can puree anything. I was thinking of doing some ground italian seasoned turkey meatballs and blending them with a Tomato based sauce and maybe a bit of ricotta. I am not sure how that would taste though lol

I puréed a lot of different foods in the blender. I actually puréed cheese ravioli! It looked gross, but it tasted like heaven!

What is after your mushie stage. I think blenderized Wendy's chili was part of my pureed stage, so you might be okay.

My cncern for you would be the enormous amount of fat and calories you plan to blend up. Not judging' date=' just an observation. .Sausage was not, and still is not part of my doctor's approved diet plan[/quote']

She said turkey meatballs not sausage. ... If you used turkey meatballs and low or fat free ricotta, this would not be an enormous amount of fat or calories...just saying,

[thinkt2013 74]

Oh yes just lean turkey lol no sausage. Lol. Thank you for the suggestions. These are great! I move on to soft foods wednesday. I can have regular meat, crackers, and i don't have to blend or puree my Soups. .

My doctor would not have approved ground turkey /chicken until weeks 3 or 4.

I wasn't allowed meat for a month.... I did do tuna but but it in the food processor to puree it.

Thanks ladies! I think i will stick to my tortilla Soup without actual tortillas. . Keep pureeing it until Wed

I put chicken in the blender with a bit of low fat gravy and it was so good at that time. Introduce meats slowely......I am 2 months out and had beef for the first time this week......still nervous about that and have not had pork yet.

Heck, I had surgery over two years ago and in still nervous about beef! Can't do any stewing meat- no matter how long it cooks in the slow cooker, it still gives me trouble. The only pork that I eat is pork tenderloin. It stays very tender and it makes great slow cooker barbecue pork.

Wow 2 years and no meat I couldn't cope I'm 2 months in and can eat a med rare eye fillet (only 1/2) no problems as long as I chew lots . My jaw gets a bit tired tho

I eat beef, I just have to very careful. I use very lean ground beef to make chili and taco meat, I just can't do beef like in a slow cooker. I can do tenderloin, yum! I just can't afford to eat it all the time.
