Canned chicken / stage 3 / soft foods



Recommended Posts

I've never had canned chicken but have heard it is not good unless you use it in a Soup, dip or some other kind of mixture. I have several cans in my pantry I bought for after surgery and still haven't used them. Please post if you make something yummy with it. I made tuna salad all the time with a little mayo, dab of mustard, chopped boiled egg, chopped pickles, Pickle Juice and salt and pepper.

You can make chicken salad, just like tuna salad

Yes, guess I like a bit chunkier chicken for chicken salad.

We buy skinless, boneless breasts, and roast them. If you soak them in brine (saltwater) overnight, and then roast them at 425° for about 45 minutes with foil tight over the pan, they come out extremely tender. Spray the roasting pan with some olive oil, add some pepper, onion and garlic powder, or any other spices you want, and you have several meals ready to heat for not a lot of money. We buy the stuff on sale for $2.00/lb.

We eat it as is, or make it into chicken salad, chicken enchiladas with refried Beans, and so on.

A brick of cream cheese, aarge can of chicken, 1/2 cup of wing sauce, 1/2 packet of ranch seasoning. Mix and bake at 350 for 20ish minutes. It's fantastic!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
