There are some on this site, plenty on Pinterest, and you can google and find sites such as this: https://www.bariatriccookery.com/

I just came across a recipe for egg-drop Soup that sounds easy. Can't wait to try it--well, after the cauliflower-garlic soup I bought ingredients for today . . . I like making soup.

Thanks! I was looking for a few around the web but I didn't like what I found.

This is one of my staple diet foods now. It's chicken salad so not exactly anything new, but adding in things like almonds (or walnuts) and dried cranberries give it a nice twist. I used to do a half & half mix of Greek Yogurt and light mayo (1 cup of each) but now go with the yogurt alone. Yields about six 1-cup servings. Truth be told most days I can only manage about 3/4 of a cup on it's own, or I do 1/2 a cup and mix in with my small salad.

If you want a lower carb version just drop the cranberries and that takes out around 11g of carbs per serving.

Edit: Just to clarify I cut the almonds, cranberries, and celery up into really small pieces and mix in with everything else.

Sounds great,
Do you eat it alone or with lettuce or something else?

Thanks Tealael I have left over dried cranberries and walnuts from my Christmas basket. Think I'll try it before I have to go on liquid diet. Since I don't have a firm scheduling date I could float free but with my gastritis I still have to eat small quantities at a time.

All sorts of ways. Typically with a little bit of lettuce. Sometimes with a couple of saltines if I need a "crunchy" fix. If I need a quick meal to go I'll put it in a small wheat tortilla, but if I do that I can only manage 1/2 cup of chicken salad and usually end up tossing part of the leftover tortilla. I don't make it a habit of using the tortillas but if I'm caught off guard and need to leave and am due to eat it serves it's purpose.
