Here are a few ideas:

• Yoplait light yogurt has 5 or 6 g of Protein.< br />
• Campbell's Tomato Soup made with skim milk instead of Water (some brands of milk have more protein than others...if you have a Braum's near you, I would get my milk there, b/c it's higher in protein than any other I've found)
  
• Soft cheeses
  
• Sugar free pudding -- only has 2 g per 1/2 cup serving, but it's a little bit
  

I got most of my protein during this stage from protein supplements. I used the protein bullets.

I think you can have meat from pot roast... as long as the meat that you are eating is VERY moist. Also, I know you can have tuna or chicken with mayo. I start my mushies next Tuesday and I am counting down the days!!!:thumbup:

My mushy stage was anything I could mash with a fork.

Fish (cod, salmon,flaky) scallops, tuna salad, egg salad, Peanut Butter, Beans (black, pinto) one of my favorite meals was the pintos and cheese from Taco Bell. Those were my biggies! Good luck!

I use 'Unjury' Protein Powder with my stuff. I am not to the mushy stage, but i use it now with Jello in a blender...it is tasteless...so its not bad.
