what were your faves during the soft food stage?

One more week then I will be in the soft food stage, Yay! Actually, I have been pretty blessed, since the day of Surgery I have had no hunger and as for head hunger, no not really, I just stayed focused on my plan and just kept telling myself, This is all for a great cause and besides it's just temporary and seeing the weight come off was a big plus I am on purees, I had tiny amounts of the recommended foods but mostly just stuck to two premier protein shakes a day, some cottage cheese, and at least 64oz of water a day. I have my doctors list of foods for the soft stage, but wouldn't mind a few more suggestions. So besides soups, chicken, tuna, egg salads, cottage cheese, greek yogurt, What were your favorites during the soft food stage?

My absolute fave was milked down refried beans with cheddar cheese....yummoh!!!

Ditto! I took it a step further- I was growing cilantro, so I chopped some cilantro, added some GY and a couple dashes of hot sauce, and ate... about a tablespoon! But, it was a darn tasty tablespoon..

Ricotta cheese with melted motz & sauce.. ate a lot of cottage cheese, all sort of ways, soft boiled eggs (couldn't finish a whole one, but it was nice!) Greek yogurt, savory, sweet.. It was a bit limited, but for me it was 10 days.. and was better than the 20 days prior of liquids only. Try making sugar free flan, maybe you could even add a little vanilla protein powder to it? I never tried it, only thought about it afterwards..

I love flan! Now, if I only had a sugar free Flan recipe, lol Thank you.

Someday soon I will try this, or a variation of it..  I would always make baked egg custards when I was sick (along with tomato soup & grilled cheese sammies.. ah, comfort food.)

You are awesome! Thank you. My kids had a nanny years ago, and she use to make a delicious coffee Flan and never did wanna give the recipe up, lol.

 Oooh, adding instant expresso powder to it would give it a great coffee flavor!! Nice!

Mmm... I actually tried a lil bit of rosarita fat free refried beans with a lil water and with a lil mexican blend shredded cheese and yes... They are yummy! Especially after not eating real food for the last 3 Weeks, I couldn't tolerate any blended soups. Thanks, beans are gooood!
