I broke down and puréed some meat...

And it was awesome!

I have been resisting puréeing meat--just the idea of it grosses me out. I made a delicious smelling pork loin for dinner for my family though, and decided I would try to blend it with some broth. It was basically the consistency of tuna or ham salad....not terribly appetizing, but not horrible either. I didn't care how it looked, though because it tasted amazing! I puréed a small amount of steamed green Beans as well, which were also delicious.

It is probably a mental thing, but it was so much more satisfying to me to have the same food as my family. I even puréed up some of the leftovers for me to eat over the next couple of days. So, if you are resisting puréeing meats, like I was, give it a try!

Well done! Finding high Protein foods to eat that sit well during the fist few weeks post op is really challenging.

I pureed Lamb stew - definitely not as good as the real thing but still, much more satisfying than another Protein shake.
