Blondey07 0 Posted May 28, 2014 Hi everyone! New to this site, and almost 3 weeks out from surgery Down 24lbs already and soo happy, but I think I am stalling this week and I'm afraid I'm not eating enough or eating to much. I can tell now when I am actually hungry and it seems like its to often. I am now on stage 3 of food and just getting bored of Farina lol, I actually ate ricotta for dinner last night just to try something different. I was wondering if anybody has any recipes for chicken or beef for pureed food, I have been craving pizza, Bagels, and burgers. So the least I can do is pretend it's a burger in puree form (YUCK! lol) PLEASE HELP! I am afraid I am going to cheat if I don't eat something with flavor soon. THANK YOU!!!

Fluffnomore 1,235 Posted May 28, 2014 You can puree chili and that might help. I never made it, but there are people who swear that a ricotta bake was just the thing. I think it's basically ricotta cheese topped with spaghetti sauce and some cheese. When the flavor thing got to me, I made a home made onion Soup and strained (or later) blended the onion pieces. Really filling and great. My other favorite thing to do was get refried black Beans and top with cheese. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bufflehead 6,358 Posted May 28, 2014 Stalling at three weeks out from surgery is completely normal so don't worry about that. For pureed food, take meat you like, puree it with a sauce you like (NOT Water or broth, gross and tasteless) and then heat it up in the microwave maybe with a little cheese melted on top. It will taste just like a casserole. What you make depends on what you like. But here are some that were favorites for me:Thai spicy tuna with Sriracha sauce and pepper jack cheese Lemon dill salmon with tartar sauce Shrimp with buffalo sauce or remoulade Ground beef with low carb BBQ Sauce and cheddar cheese chicken with marinara sauce and mozzarella Ranch flavor tuna with ranch dressing and swiss cheese Sweet & spicy tuna with chipotle bbq sauce and a Laughing Cow Chipotle Queso Fresco wedge Turkey with peanut satay sauce and jack cheese I mostly just used meat from the little packets and cans that comes already cooked and flavored and just needs to be heated up. Stuff like the Starkist tuna packets. For beef I just used frozen precooked burger patties. I did a lot of poached eggs on top of refried Beans with salsa, cheese, etc. 2 ljf0204 and NewMe052014 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
