Recipes for Pureed Phase of Postop Diet
Feb 18, 2010
Yesterday I talked about making some recipes provided by my doctor's office for the pureed phase. For those who don't have these recipes, I am including them. I have tried all of them and they are tasty and easy to make. I was getting very tired of sweet stuff, since that seemed like the only thing available during the liquid phases. Enjoy!Tuna or Chicken Salad
1 6-oz can light tuna or chicken packed in water (drained)
2 tablespoons fat-free or light MiracleWhip or mayo
1 teaspoon mustard
1/4 teaspoon celery salt
Add all ingredients to blend. Blend on high speed until smooth. Refrigerate.
Refried Beans & Cheese
1 can fat-free refried beans
Shredded low-fat cheddar cheese
Mash refried beans with fork until smooth. Sprinkle cheese over beans. Heat until melted.
Chicken & Veggie Supreme
1 large boneless/skinless chicken breast
1 bag frozen broccoli (or veggie of your choice)
1 can chicken broth
1 can low-fat cream of chicken soup
Mashed potato flakes
Cook chicken and veggies in broth for about an hour, simmering on low heat. Add to blender with cream of chicken soup and process. Add mashed potatoe flakes to desired consistency.
Deviled Eggs
6 large eggs
1/4 cup low-fat cottage cheese (I used Greek yogurt)
3 tablespoons light Miracle-Whip or mayo
1/2 teaspoon mustard
Place eggs in saucepan and cover with water. Bring to simmer and cook for about 10 minutes. Drain and set pan under cold running water for 2 minutes. Peel eegs and slice in half, remove yolks with a spoon and mash with a fork.
In blender, puree the cottage cheese until smooth and add egg whites, if desired. In a bowl, mix egg yolks, cottage cheese blend, mayo and mustard. Refigerate
