MUSHIE SUGGESTIONS

[Susan58 10]

I HAD TO GO BACK TO liquids FOR A FEW DAYS AND NOW BACK UP TO MUSHIES. THE ONLY THING I CAN THINK OF IS YOGURT AND Protein Drinks. ANY SUGGESTIONS ON WHAT I CAN EAT? AND I HAVE SEEN SEVERAL PEOPLE ON HERE SAY THEY CAN'T EAT SCRAMBLED eggs. THIS IS ONE OF MY FAVORITE FOODS SO JUST WONDERING WHY THEY WOULD BE TROUBLE. IT SEEMS LIKE THEY WOULD JUST SLIDE ON DOWN. THANKS FOR ANY INPUT!!

Over easy med eggs, thick cream of wheat, oatmeal, egg salad, tuna.. Some things that pop into mind..

oatmeal..they have sugar free with added Protein at the store...I add another scoop of Protein to it. Mashed sweet potato, mashed regular potato, Soups with really soft vegetables and meats you can practically mush with your mouth (blend it), blend up a can of chili, egg salad, custard, ricotta baked with Tomato sauce, re-fried Beans with a bit of cumin and avacado...you can try scrambled eggs...I can't handle them as much, even while on solids. They "Stick" in my throat or something, and just don't seem worth it right now. I can eat over easy eggs just fine. Keep in mind, mushies that work for me may not work for you...slowly try different things. Ask your surgeons office for ideas as well.

I should have read the other threads before I posted my own. We are in the same boat.

when I was on mushies I made a chicken salad and just popped it in the food processor. I know that sounds gross but it was hearty tasting and fulfilled my craving for chicken salad! I may have also thrown a few bacon bits in there too!
