Broth, Broth, And More Broth!



Recommended Posts

I honestly don't know if this is/was completely okay or not but about 1-2 weeks or so post-op I made a french onion Soup and strained off everything even remotely chunky. It was broth based but had a lot of flavor added to it (a cup of wine, onions, etc.) The majority of it was broth, however.

Are there any recipes that you could do that you could cook with other items and then take all of the "other" out of it?

Once I was on full liquids, I felt like I could get more & different flavors in. I heated up some Tomato Soup with a bunch of fresh basil. Once it was hot, I threw out the basil & stirred in a little goat cheese. It was fabulous.

The other Soup I enjoyed was cream of asparagus blended with some potted meat product (I know...gross, but I wanted some ham flavor & the protein). Once it was perfectly smooth, I heated it & thinned it with a little chicken broth, added a splash of Tabasco, & stirred in a little grated Parmesan. It was delicious & felt like "real" food to me. Good luck...the first part can be rough, but you'll get through it!

Your local super market might sell "Better than broth." If not, it is available online. It saved my life during full liquids because the flavor was so much better than anything else I could find. I tried both the chicken and beef flavors and they were great. Good luck!

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
