FOOD IDEASFOR PUREED PERIOD

[DoraP 28]

I thought we could change tips and recipes here. What do you put in

that blender?

I am 2 weeks in to pureed, and seriously over pureed at this point.. So I would love some ideas.

Things I have done are a white chicken chili, a simple recipe and pureed well, held its taste and flavor.

Mccormicks white chicken chili mix, follow their recipe with broth but add corn and 1/2 can of low fat cream of chicken Soup.

dice up some avocado for topping with some shredded cheese.

My favorite so far was ricotta with spinach. low fat ricotta and I boiled some spinach and

blended it together with a little broth so it would be even lighter, delicious

This is a great question! I still have a week and a half and I'm running out of ideas...

Where is the food forum?

[Inner Surfer Girl 12,015]

It's under General Weigh Loss Surgery. There are sub forums for each stage. It's listed as food and Nutrition.

What do you mean no one goes there? It seems like there is a lot of useful info and recipes on the thread with current posts. If someone is looking for food and recipe ideas that would be the logical place to look.

Have you looked at theworldaccordingtoeggface.blogspot.com? Tons of recipes for all stages.

I was getting tired of eggs for Breakfast, so I did the smoothie the last couple mornings.

I know we're not supposed to "drink" our meals as a rule, but I figured during pureed stage it's alright.

I used one container of Danon Light Yogurt, then about 4-6 oz of OJ, a couple frozen strawberries and 1 scoop of my GENEPRO unflavored Protein mix.

Total calories 268, total Protein 44g. That'll keep me full for a while! I sipped on it for over an hour.

Now for example my NUT said that smoothies and Protein shakes are meals not fluids

because they have nutritional value... what do you think about that?
