Liver (the kind you eat lol)
Okay, so first of all let me say I'm pre-op so I'm going by what I know about nutrition and what I've read about the DS only.
Second - yuck. :)
Third, liver is very low carb with an average serving having about 20gm of protein, 5 gm of iron, and is high in vitamin A, cholesterol and has minerals such as zinc. That's in beef/calves liver. If you're talking chicken liver (double yuck), I'm not sure. My husband is a liver fiend so I looked it up to talk him out of eating it thinking it would be bad for him. I was wrong. He only eats it rarely but it makes me seriously gag. Even the smell of it cooking - blech. But, it seems pretty good for you.
Fourth - yuck.

Never Yuk LoL except for the chicken liver. I agree, thats gross.
You're husband is awesome :)
Theres a little market in a flea market (Columbus Mart) near me and they have the BEST fried liver and turkey butt around!
Now for how to cook it. If it is that beneficial I want to make sure I don't make it too greasy so it doesnt slip right through me :)

Hrrrmmm...
I think that some liver patés would qualify as soft or mushy foods, the problem is that they go great with toast points and crackers... I think D'artangian and les trois petits cochons make some great patés, I've seen a lot of supermarkets carry them.

Love liver - great source of protein. But I will warn you about the suggestion of apple or pear slices. I am almost 9 years post-op and eating raw apples completely tears my stomach up. I can barely eat half an apple and then it must be peeled. My system can't seem to break down the apple (peel in particular). So just a suggestion here.
If you do try some pate (or chopped liver - yum), just put it some a few saltine crackers.
