Hello all!

I'm so freakin excited, I get to start pureed foods Friday! I enjoy cooking and already started planning out what I want to prep and make....I miss MEAT! I'm gonna get my money's worth on my food processor.

Sooooo what are your favorite purees and puree recipes? I've already bookmarked Shelley's ricotta bake and some chicken salad...what else is tasty? Give me your recs! TIA!! ????

I was coming here to post the link to Shelley's Baked Ricotta when I saw the subject of your post, but I see you've already found that site. :P

Sweet potato pear and broccoli. It sounds gross but oh so yummy. Steam until soft and puree.

Two Trader Joe's turkey meatballs (no breadcrumbs!) With a scoop of ricotta and marinara. Delish!

I never did purée any food in a blender or food processor. If you have teeth you should be able to chew your food to a puréed texture.

I didn't purée much, either, but one of my first pureed was chicken chili. I used my immersion blender and it tasted amazing after all the sweet in the liquid phase!!!

I'm currently on purees and loving the baked ricotta, greek yogurt, refried Beans, and Laughing Cow cheese triangles! Just don't forget about the Protein. :) The only thing I've tried on purees that I didn't care for was oatmeal...weird because I loved it before, but I don't need all of those carbs anyway! :)

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      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!
