Schatzi 17 Posted January 4, 2017 I start puree tomorrow! I plan to try cottage cheese, applesauce, and mashed potatoes (made thin with broth or milk). Sent from my SM-N910R4 using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stephanie 73 Posted January 4, 2017 depends on your pickiness. If you have a bullit you can puree almost anything you liked prior to your sleeve. Veggies cooked very well and thinned with some chicken or beef stock is yummy. I particularly liked zucchini that way. Deviled eggs with a little of the powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury powdered chicken broth is really yummy. I didn't not particularly like it made into a broth however but it did make for a really good seasoning for things like deviled eggs and pureed veggies. I added the powder dry to the eggs with a bit of Water to make a paste. It is also good to have some Tomato basil Soup, pureed cottage cheese and a little canned fruit pureed into it, Yogurt, go thru some bariatric websites for some great ideas.

Tufflaw 465 Posted January 4, 2017 I was told no veggies for the first month or fruits for the first two months, and potatoes were banned because of the starch. I've been eating scrambled eggs with shredded cheese every morning. I have made some egg salad, tuna salad, chicken salad, turkey salad. Also every day for lunch I eat a piece of Ricotta Bake, oh my god it's fantastic. Got the recipe here (and also there are other great suggestions for the puree phase): http://theworldaccordingtoeggface.blogspot.com/2007/08/pureed-foods.html Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
heidikat72 935 Posted January 4, 2017 I was going to suggest the blog mentioned in the post above - Eggface has an entire post devoted to puree stage ideas. I had a lot of greek yogurt, cottage cheese, the infamous ricotta bake, refried Beans with melted cheese, pureed tuna salad/chicken salad/salmon salad/egg salad (using plain nonfat greek yogurt instead of mayo). Those flavored tuna pouches got me through the puree and soft foods stage and still are a convenient on the run item to keep in my bag and for when I travel. I used a black and decker mini chopper to make my purees - basically a miniature food processor. Only costs about $10 and was the perfect size for a pouch of tuna or small can of chicken and a tablespoon or two of yogurt. (During puree phase that would be 2 or 3 meals for me) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Montana Gal 448 Posted January 4, 2017 I used a lot of white types of fish, Swai was my favorite. I baked it with a little olive oil and lemon, it was so soft already all I had to do was mash it a little with my fork. Soft, moist and a good way to get a healthy dose of Protein.
