megpie 20 Posted January 9, 2014 Doc gave me the go to start my phase 3 mushies! I'm 2 week post op. Just wondering if any of you have any good recipes or good ideas for meals? I work on the weekdays so something I can make at home and bring to work! THANKS(: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LindafromFlorida 1,542 Posted January 9, 2014 My advice to you is keep it simple and do not start meal planning at two weeks. Focus on shakes, adding unflavored Protein powder to Soups, yogurt, SF Jello, or anything else on your list of foods. There is enough to deal with going back to work so keep a light load for yourself. I dearly loved the convenience of refried Beans with a little wedge of Laughing Cow white Cheddar cheese and it was tasty and filling. Could that be easier? I am still 7 weeks post op and my husband 5 weeks post op, and loving the simplicity of life. I made tuna salad yesterday for a treat, and really enjoyed it. 1/2 to 1 boiled egg is delicious and easy. 1scrambled egg in the morning is quick and easy! Relax! I made crockpot chicken 3 weeks out. It was so good I ate too fast and choked on a small piece of chicken, horrible pain, and that is when I decided to slow down and not get carried away with recipes and going back to that normal of cooking and eating. Best of luck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
megpie 20 Posted January 9, 2014 Where can I find unflavored Protein? That's a wonderful idea! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LindafromFlorida 1,542 Posted January 9, 2014 Yes, I bought mine online at unjury.com too. They also have Unjury chicken Soup powder. Just add Water. They have a mac and cheese, but I did not try it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
