Chicken Question

[MrsM 31]

Hi there,

I am making chicken tonight for my family (chicken legs with skin using shake n bake) and I just hit the puree stage. Do you think I could eat a leg (minus the skin) if I just cut the chicken super duper small? I don't really wanna puree it. Or does anyone have any idea how I could eat the leg? Dark meat tends to be more moist so I think it's moist enough? Thanks!

I did that and just chewed really well. I figured it is the same thing as puree

Thanks I hope so! Guess I will find out! haha pureed chicken just does not sound right!

Personally I wouldn't risk it. You may think that you chewed enough but not. pureed chicken is actually very good.

wouldn't risk it...you are so early out. I tried jumping from pureed to soft a little sooner then I should have and had a really bad vomiting episode. I hate baby food chicken but that is what my pouch liked. I am now starting week 6 and just easing into a little bit of ground beef.

If you puree the chicken it pretty much tastes the same as regular chicken, but if you choose to chew it make sure you masticate EXTREMELY well!

Good Luck!

I did it! I cut it off the bone into really small pieces and chewed and chewed and chewed! 2 hours later and no problems!! I think really it ended up being pureed by the time it hit my belly from all that chewing!! Man, it was hard taking all the skin off the chicken..I used to love that but I DEF know that would've caused problems!!! I'm so happy I was able to eat with my family instead of a shake! hah!!

I couldn't do the puree. It made me physically sick. So I just ate very soft things and chewed until there was hardly anything left of it and I did well. Keep up the good work!

Yes, me too...I have been doing that with a variety of items. I'm week three so technically one more week of pureed but I have had no problems with chewing chewing chewing til its pureed in my mouth haha...I have even tolerated ground beef! Woo hoo!
