Pureed Recipes needed please!



Recommended Posts

I honestly pureed everything I was feeding my family for dinner. Hotdish, pork chops, Soups, etc... but here are some quick fix pureeds.

Ricotta & Mozzarella with sauce (I liked a pesto or sun dried Tomato sauce)

Cottage cheese with dry ranch dressing mixed into it.

Refried Beans with a little cheese and taco sauce

pureed chicken with low fat greek yogurt & hot sauce - heat it up and mix well

tuna with low fat mayo and pickle juice

Here are a few to get you started. But honestly, it may not look the greatest but puree what ever your family is having for dinner. (if you are married) I pureed a normal person sized portion and used the leftovers for extra meals and meals to bring to work.

Try:

oatmeal or cream of wheat thinned out with milk

Cottage cheese with strained fruit

Soft scrambled eggs

pureed chicken with purred broccoli or green Beans

Hummus

Refried Beans ( some brand have more Protein than others; read the labels)

Some folks like mashed potatoes

Try home made cauliflower Soup pureed

tuna salad

The key is to keep it simple to see which foods sit well with you.

Good luck and congratulations on another milestone!

I made a poppyseed chicken casserole and it was delicious. I pureed the chicken and substituted the sour cream for Greek yogurt. I thought I'd miss the sour cream but honestly the plain greek yogurt tasted the same (plus it has a ton of protein). I found my recipe on Pinterest.

I was trying to think of recipes myself during my puréed and soft food phase and I decided to try ground turkey with cream of celery Soup. Not bad, maybe some seasoning may be needed. Another combo was ground turkey and avocado.

Nice to see other recipes on here ????

I am in the same stage and have been loving a bit of ricotta with a bit of sauce and a bit of shredded low fat mozzarella cheese. Heated up its so good. My doctor basically said at my post op to keep it to mushy foods, Protein first, no bread, no Pasta, no rice, but pretty much try what ever as long as it's mushy.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
