Pureed or blenderized food ideas



Recommended Posts

I am just about 3 weeks post op gastric bypass and looking for more ideas of pureed foods. I am so tired of eggs, refried Beans and yogurt. I'm going to try the ricotta bake and smoothies tomorrow, but still need a few ideas to keep it interesting. Can't tolerate tofu or fat free gravy and not allowed to have meat yet. Thanks in advance

How about pimento cheese? It's been a staple for me. I never actually pureed anything. I just had softish food like yogurt, canned chicken, pimento and ricotta cheese and chewed thoroughly.

I have done oatmeal with low carb high Protein milk. Then add a scoop of either flavored protein or unflavored..
You can also do a mix of Beans, mild cheddar cheese, cottage cheese, a touch of light sour cream and even add some chipotle sauce to add a little kick..
also do chicken with sourcream and some chipotle. I understand you completely as i was also getting fed up eating the same things over and over

I just made the Cottage cheese bake from the Baritastic app & it was good (and I don't like cottage cheese!) I just added a little sprinkle of Parmigiano Reggiano shredded cheese to the top (looked like it needed it towards end of baking).

INGREDIENTS:

2 cups low-fat or fat-free cottage cheese
2 whole eggs
10 oz pack of frozen spinach (thawed and drained)
½ cup Parmesan cheese

DIRECTIONS:

Preheat oven to 350° F.
In large bowl, mix all ingredients together well.
Place evenly into 8x8 pan.
Bake for 20-30 minutes or until cheese bubbles on outside.
Let sit 5 minutes before serving.
Season to taste with salt, pepper, and garlic as desired.

NUTRITIONAL INFORMATION PER SERVING (about 1/2 cup):
Total calories: 78
Total fat: 3 g
Total carbohydrates: 3 g
Dietary Fiber: 1 g
Sugars: 2 g
Protein: 11 g

Hello!
I bought a bariactric cookbook from Amazon. I tried the cottage recipe which called for sprinkling a little homemade Taco seasoning(recipe for the taco seasoning is in the book too) & it was pretty good! So when my daughter made tacos for dinner I used that recipe to help curb that desire to eat what my family was eating![emoji4]

How funny! We were talking about this yesterday! How we love to make the ricotta bake using cottage cheese cuz growing up our mom's made lasagna with cottage cheese, not ricotta! So tonight we're making a lasagna bake (without pasta) with cottage cheese again. It was soooo good!

At 5 wk post op I just started to puree the meals my daughter or I would cook! Stuff like chicken with veggies, cauliflower mashed potato. Cowboy Casserole with cauliflower cheese tater tots! Now that im a few days to reaching wk 7 I still like to puree my foods only because it mixes the flavorings of the seasonings that I use so well! Yumm! Tastes so Gooood![emoji6][emoji16]

      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.
