Yes, you can puree pinto Beans.

You can have canned chicken or tuna on the puree stage. I would mix my chicken with a little lowfat mayo and seasonings and have it like a little chicken salad.

Refried Beans, hummus, yogurt, cottage cheese, scrambled eggs, ricotta bake.

My nutritionist said that all I needed to do for the canned chicken was mash it up real well with a fork, so that's what I did. It worked fine with me. I know that some people prefer to puree it in their blender or food processor... it's up to you.

I don't know about the pureed strawberries, it might be too early to add them. I know that your stomach during the pureed stage isn't quite ready for some fresh fruits. You might want to check with your nutritionist on that. My nutritionist said I could have mashed banana for fruit, but that was about it on the pureed stage.

I got foil packs of Salmon Creations (lemon &dill) then used a hand mixer to add a few tablespoons of Fage' plain greek yogurt. Really easy to get my Protein in that way.

Sure, here is the recipe.... I got it from this website: theworldaccordingtoeggface.blogspot.com

She has some great recipes on her website, she is a former WLS patient and she has a great success story!

Her recipes are on her website along with pictures and she even has an area of recipes for the pureed food stage.

Shelly's Ricotta Bake

8 oz of Ricotta cheese

1/2 cup grated Parmesan

1 large Egg, beaten

1 teaspoon Italian Seasoning

salt & pepper to taste

1/2 cup Marinara Sauce

1/2 cup shredded Mozzarella cheese

Mix ricotta cheese, parmesan, beaten egg, seasonings together and place in a oven proof dish. Pour marinara on top and top with mozzarella cheese. Bake it in the oven @ 450 for about 20-25 minutes (best) or nuke it till hot and bubbly. I usually made it first in the oven and heated the leftovers in the microwave.

I was allowed soft white fish on my puréed phase, so I did that. I also made chicken salad, but I made it homemade in a blender rather than using the canned stuff. I also ate a lot of eggs.

      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.
