I really enjoyed Egg Drop Soup. Ooooh, and Malt-O-Meal! YUMMMM!

Mushroom Soup. Cottage cheese. tuna with light mayo. Egg in microwave with sprinkled cheese. Soft soy Beans mashed with fork. I stayed away from refried Beans made me feel icky and way to full. Egg Drop soup was a staple too.

Did you have regular Campbell's mushroom soup, or a low fat version? I love mushroom soup! My post op,appt is tomorrow & I am looking forward to the "full liquids" stage. I unfortunately do not like yogurt, cream of wheat & pudding...so it will be 2 weeks of soup for me!

Anyone else having a problem with eggs?? Had surgery July 15th. 1st time I tried a scrambled egg, didn't keep it down. Second time, it was painful. Keeping it simple, but everything else seems okay.

We tried a soft scrambled egg about 4 weeks, no problem. Try again in a couple week. I love yogurt for Breakfast.

Basically boil chicken broth and swirl in beaten eggs as it's boiling. Add about a tbs of corn starch with a couple tablespoons of soy sauce in a bowl. Dump that into the Soup part and cook for a couple minutes. Garnish with some green onion. It's pretty good.

I tried scrambled with cheese today. I didn't keep it all down either. I think I'll skip it for a while. Or maybe it was the type of cheese. I tried to cut the portion in half but that didn't help either.

The Greek yogurt went down very nicely. The brand I'm using comes in vanilla flavor and it's pretty darn good. 4oz = 10 gm Protein which is awesome.

Everything on purees made me crabby and miserable and I was happy it was only one week long on my plan. I'm super picky though.

Hi everyone..when you mention refried beans.. Are you talking about canned? Or are you making your own...and in that case does anyone have a good recipe?

Keep it simple. Refried heated from the can is delish. Top with Laughing Cow cheese, or taco sauce. Later on make your own Beans from dried or canned. Cook with FF chicken broth, celery, onion, bell pepper, season any way you cant. Love lowfat chili cooked with beans and ground turkey. Thank goodness I can tolerate spicy.
