Hummus, scrambled eggs, refried Beans, cottage cheese (mashed up), Greek yogurt, cream/strained Soups, ricotta bake, and there's a lot more on Pinterest .

No rice ever on my plan but especially when still healing.

No grains (including rice) for the first 6 months on my program. No fruits or vegetables (except condiment vegetables) for the first 8 weeks, so I'm ecstatic I get to have green Beans Saturday! Refried Beans with some cheddar were what I mostly ate during purée phase.

Refried Beans with a little melted cheee & salsa, cottage cheese with Salad Dressing or salsa or other savory mix-ins (PB2 works well too), Greek yogurt with PB2 stirred in, poached eggs, Shelly's Ricotta Bake.

I would also take some meat, puree it with a flavorful sauce, and then heat it up in the microwave with a little shredded cheese on top. I know what you are thinking . . . pureed meat, gross! But when you add something tasty in the food processor and heat it up, it tastes just like a casserole, only without the carby stuff you don't need like rice or noodles.

Some of my favorite combos were (just to give you some ideas):

ranch-flavor tuna with ranch dressing, Sriracha sauce, and pepper jack cheese

Shrimp with buffalo wing sauce and bleu cheese

chicken breast with marinara sauce & mozzarella cheese

Turkey breast with peanut satay sauce & jack cheese

Ground bison with low carb BBQ Sauce and cheddar cheese

Chicken with tikka masala sauce and Swiss cheese

Good luck!

Wow so much useful information thank you so much! I can't wait to try these out I have been living off of sugar free Jello and broth for 2 weeks.

[JusWannaBeHealthy 2]

Wow @@britt_12, after 4 days of broth I don't wanna even see the word Broth. How did you last 2 weeks?

[britt_12 14]

I have no idea but I do know I never want to eat broth again. That's why I can not wait for puréed foods. Tuesday can't get here fast enough!

Refried Beans, sugar free yogurt, cottage cheese, mashed potatoes with unflavored Protein Powder mixed in...I was allowed to have Mac n cheese if it was over cooked and thoroughly mashed first, but I never did it or the potatoes because of the carbs, ricotta bake, lasagna smashed with a fork-although again the carbs are too much IMO, cook an over easy egg using Pam cooking spray and then smash with a fork til it makes egg slop. I ate A LOT of eggs during puréed stage...
