Jenny881 5 Posted October 9, 2012 Please help me with some purée ideas. I don't eat vegetables and am picky with food but I am so sick of pudding, yogurt, cream of wheat, eggs and Mashed potatoes! My doctor said no oatmeal. What else can I have???? Please help. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Threetimesacharm 1,400 Posted October 9, 2012 I eat only pureed protein: eggs cottage cheese tuna salmon canned chicken, turkey, ham adding a laughing cow cheese to any of these is delicious. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SkinnyAnnie 4 Posted October 9, 2012 If you do soup- there is a Progresso Light Santa Fe that is delish. Kind of like tortilla Soup. Less than 5% fat, 5% carbs, low calorie and you can puree the soup first and then heat it up. Really good a teensy kick (makes it interesting) but not SO spicy that it will give you heartburn. Also low fat ricotta is yummy as well. Having said that, I am on pureed for a month and it's definitely starting to get old (and I have FIFTEEN DAYS to go) In any case, good luck!

PdxMan 4,292 Posted October 9, 2012 Grab any Soup and blenderize the carp out of it. Worked for me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sleevin scotty 43 Posted October 10, 2012 im sneaking into this stage too but im supposed to wait a couple days im 12 days post op. i cheated today missing food so i put a jack in the box taco in the blender with a hint of beef broth and a taco sauce packet. was yummy but prolly not the healthiest choice. 2 Jenny881 and cmayfield85 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
suepeeps 230 Posted October 10, 2012 I made stuffed shells for my husband. I had one of them and gave the shell to the dog. It was SO good! It had ricotta, sausage, hamburger, and Italian cheese with marinara sauce. So tasty after weeks of bland. My NUT said I could have any Protein blended. Add spaghetti sauce or piazza sauce for flavor. Just a little bit is great! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kimba46 1 Posted October 12, 2012 What stage is the pureed considered? I am on two week (stage 3). Have been doing the Protein Drinks, Jello, pudding, cottage cheese, and creamy Soups. Is the next stage considered the mush/puree stage? Don;t see my nut until 10/19. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
