Does anyone have any favorite high protein, vegetarian (or could be made vegetarian) purée texture, warm dishes?
ive been heating up protein shakes in the microwave to make hot cocoa but I really need something warm and comforting for the evening and I'd like to go beyond protein drinks.

White bean soup puréed. Would think any stew recipe could be made vegetarian by using beans/chickpeas/lentils. I would take beef stew and run it through blender.
Before WLS I actually would make all types of soups/stews and then blend them up in my blender and put in my thermos to carry to the college for my lunches so nice and easy to drink thick, filling and warm... they were delish!

Cottage cheese, yogurt, tofu curry, lentil + vegetarian sausage soup, vegetarian chili, vegetarian pasta sauce made with TVP. Lots and lots of options - you can puree anything :)

My favorite meal during the pureed phase was Shelley's Crock Pot Roast -- I made it for the family and then took my portion and pureed it in a mini-food processor I bought for $3 at Goodwill. Recipe is at the link below (scroll down the page).
