Best pureed foods

[Alikfield 48]

I want to start planning for next week. Going back to work Monday and back to reality. Would love some suggestions for puréed lunches/dinners. I also just purchased a mini chopper that I'm excited to use! :-)

Stay away from high fats and high carbs and high sugars ..Protein is #1

You truly can puree anything. I blended Soup, eggs, and chili. I did not blend cottage cheese because it kind of sounded gross. Yogurt is a good staple too...greek. I returned to work at 3 weeks and was on pureed foods. I ate oatmeal for bfast and mostly Soups for lunch. Dinner...I just blended whatever we were having or had blended soup. I did do hummus a couple of times, as well as pintos & cheese (from taco bell) when we were out and about and needed to eat.

THANK YOU JamesGz! Great ideas! Deviled eggs.... yum! I am sure I'll only be able to eat one, but that sounds so much better than another sugar free popsicle!

I blended just about everything I cooked my husband. Some good, some not so good. I did try to stay away from high fat foods. I cooked with the 98% ff Soups. I tried blended smoked chicken with BBQ Sauce. It didn't make me sick, but set on my stomach like a brick. Blended lean meatloaf with a little added ketchup(no high fructose corn syrup) was pretty tasty. I stuck with lf cottage cheese for Breakfast because it has 14 gm of Protein. Taco bell refried Beans and cheese, yummy, they even sell them at the store by the can.

I have been blending lean cuisine and they taste wonderful. This way I know I am getting healthy food high in Protein and it does all the counting and measuring for me.

pureed cottage chesse isn't "gross". It has the consistencty of Greek yogurt.

For breakfast, I did pureed cottage cheese with a little vanilla extract, cinnamon, and artificial sweetner. It tastes like a cinnamon roll with cream cheese frosting!

Another treat: 16 ounces low-fat cottage cheese pureed with 1 small envelope of sugar free Jello powder - makes four 4 oz. servings. strawberry is my favorite, but any flavor will work.

Similar to Jon's recipe above. Favorite recipe from my nut:

High Protein pudding:

16 oz. cottage cheese

1 package sf pudding mix

1 scoop Protein powder

4 tbsp ff milk

8 oz. ff or sf cool whip

Mix first 4 ingredients in food processor until smooth, then fold in whipped topping. Chill and serve. 20-25 grams of Protein per 1/2 c serving.

I am starting the puree stage tomorrow also thank goodness. I started getting bored with Soups today and tried scrambled egg for Breakfast with no issues. I also had some low fat cottage cheese for lunch. Keep the puree ideas coming please.

[kmo235 8]

Do you use unflavored Protein in that recipe? It sounds great!

[kristireyna 23]

Great ideas! I need to start copying all of these so I don't forget them.
