Whats for supper tonight??

I'm thinking I may let Rich heat up the Chili I made yesterday and I may make me some chicken broth or something. Truthfully I don't want to eat at all. I feel plum awful and anything semi solid hurts my throat and chokes me and then I cough and basically I just wanna rest and relax. I been getting my fluids in today though probally will have to tube feed a time or two to make up for the lack of calories and nutrition today.

I made a soup tonite...I came up with it at the grocery store while deciding what to make. Chicken minestrone soup.Yummo. I shredded up a rotissere chicken into a pot of tomato juice/chicken broth, with minestrone soup base, onion soup base, and a bag of veggie soup veggies.I ate it with a piece of marbled rye bread with peanut butter. Then it gave me the energy to go to the gym and do 45 min. on the elyptical and 1.5 on the treadmill burning 500 calories! Whew I am exhausted. Shanna

Wow :) That sounds yummy. :) I love making soups. I make an awesome beef vegetable soup and I add beef cubes but I've not made it post op because I'm fraid the beef would be toooo tough for me even making it in the crock pot but I might make some this week because I have been craving it. :) I ended up eating the turkey and cheese from a lunchable after coating my throat really good with chloraseptic. It was like Spray spray.. 3 bites, spray spray hehehe But it tasted decent soo it's okay.

Misty,Given all the problems you'd had, try susbtituting your beef cubes with ground turkey. It think it'd be easier on your tummy. You can always get more beaf flavor in by using beaf broth or beaf boulon as your soup stock. Sherrips...We had taco's. It was the first time I've made taco's in about 5 years. My daughter Tiffany would talk about having them and that would make me want one. So..we had them. About an hour after dinner, Tiffany called. Yep! She had them for dinner too! lol. I do use beaf for them but I get the 97% lean and drain the heck out of it after I brown it.
