Post op liquid diet ideas?!
Your first few days home need to be pretty "clear", so Crystal Lite (I recommend the Peach Tea), water, diluted broths. You need to be able to see through the liquid. If you can't stand having yet one more cup of chicken broth you can put a tiny bit of pressed garlic in it, or try simmering with some vegetables and then draining off.
Once you get clearance for shakes I highly recommend Unjury Chocolate Splendor and the Unjury Strawberry Sorbet. When you can eat soft foods (yogurt) you can blend the powder with the yogurt and a little skim milk to make a pretty kick ass yogurt smoothy.
I start purees this weekend and I've got some ideas brewing in my head. I'll share recipes when I am successful.
By the way - the Ginger Lemon Broth recipe that's in my blog is AWESOME.
