[JayVSG 21]

Hopefully when I go for my 2 week post op my Dr will tell me I can go on my puree stage, I'm just getting sick of Water and Protein shakes and popsicles lol, what are things I can eat on the puree stage? I'm not a fan of cottage cheese so looking for ideas

Hummus, creamed/strained Soups, ricotta bake, refried Beans with cheese, greek yogurt...

There's some good ideas on Pinterest. Good luck!

I'm not sure if you have to puree the tuna. I've seen it on some plans at this stage. You would definitely have to add mayo or something - it'd be too dry plain.

I just started mine. Only Protein for a week. Tiny pieces, chewed 40 times per bite. I've had grilled chicken, a lean Teeny burger, scrambled eggs with ham and low fat cheese, tuna with low fat mayo. It was So good to chew, but you get very full very fast!

@@JayVSG Many plans are different - you may be on pureed longer than this one.

A $15 electric mini chopper made the purée stage so much easier. I put everything into that baby

Definitely add a little gravy or a condiment to make the meat moist.
