I love ethnic food so seeing if anyone has any healthy recipes for soft and solid stages

No one?

Try posting and searching on the food and Nutrition forum. I know I have seen many recipes.

Refried Beans and cheese are great for the soft foods stage.

I'm on soft foods and although I can't have it yet, I'd love a Mediterranean plate... A piece of chicken kabob, some hummus and a 1/4 cup of tabouli would be awesome right now. I'm so boring right now... turkey chili, refried Beans and tuna are my staples. Being able to make healthy (flavorful) choices is really the key to keeping this lifelong commitment... so I can't wait until I can introduce more foods.

tuna okay nice are you eating plain or with mayo?

[Inner Surfer Girl 12,015]

I eat a lot of tuna. I like it plain, with a little bit of mayo, with some flavored aioli (I have some from Stonewall Kitchen that I like), with salad dressing, etc. you can also get some of the flavored tuna packets (like ranch, etc).

I found that post-op, if I do mix in a fat, I need much less than I used pre-op.

I eat lots of hummus.

Chinese I like tofu w/ veg or miso Soup.

Puerto Rican I get manduras or tostones & rice & Beans if I can get my friends mom to make it withou pork or lard

My fav is Indian. I usually get molov kofta (so?)

Indian Chinese or Thai are always easy since I can get something either with Beans or with tofu.

I'm actually planning to make a miso Soup tomorrow. I'll add some unflavored Protein powder to the miso broth then add some bay Bok Choy & fresh ginger. I'll either dice doe tofu it add a bit of TVP. Other than the Bok Choy the soup is perfect for any stage. If you eat meat you could swap out the tofu for meat of choice
