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]

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
