Grits

[iamworthit 208]

Does anyone know if grits are ok in pureed stage? I know cream of wheat is but I can't stand cream of wheat.

Quaker instant grits have 2g of Protein per packet..you won't be able to eat a whole packet... To me not worth it... Not enough protein!!

They were approved 3 days post op for me as long as they were thin. Not something I'd eat now but post-op when I was so limited for sure.

Thanks! Im not a huge egg lover so I thought 1/2 packet with one egg might be an option. Im making a list of things I can eat so post op I don't have to think.

Mix the egg into the grits as it cooks, add fat free cream cheese or low fat cheese. you can amp up the Protein in a safe way.

Grits, cream of wheat and oatmeal made me sick.
