3 weeks out... I need food ideas!

At this point... I am only able to tolerate egg whites, yogurt, pudding, and applesauce. I do occasionally eat tomato sauce with ricotta cheese (as a soup).

I ventured out and pureed soups...but even that is unsettling for  my EXTREMELY picky grouchy pouch.

Any mushy food ideas for me? Slider foods?

I purchased refried beans... not sure how to incorporate that into a meal though?

I'm so lost. The chart the hospital gave me is SO GENERIC.

Put some refried beans in a bowl.  Microwave until hot.  Add some shredded lf cheddar.  You can microwave a little longer to warm/melt the cheese.  This was one of my favorites.

If you are allowed "soft foods"  my other favorite at that time was frozen 5/8 oz  to 1 oz meatballs with some marinara sauce microwaved. 

These are both easy to take to work if you have a microwave.

Other ideas:
tuna or chicken salad made with hard boiled egg whites but no celery.  I used celery and onion
         powders instead to get the flavor.
lf cottage cheese with applesauce  (cottage cheese is high in protein)
Buy a small Wendy's chili and put it in the blender if you still need pureed.  Otherwise it it pretty
        easy on the pouch.

Tuna salad was a lifesaver at that point. I also loved refried beans with some salsa verde and/or cheese. Boiled eggs chewed to a mush were a dream.....lol

 oh bless you all!  I am only 9 days out and still on liquids but never would have thought of a couple of these ideas!  When I see my dr next week I am going to ask if I could have the Wendy's chili if I puree it because I would love the flavors!  I have eaten so much yogurt in the last 4 weeks with pre op and post op diets and getting my protein shakes.  

Thanks!! 

 I saw a recipe where someone took 1/8 c or eggbeaters and cooked them in a skillet with pam.  Then she put 2 tsp of refried beans, shredded cheese and a drop of ff sour cream, rolled them up like a mini burrito!  I am having that next Tuesday when I can eat soft foods!  OH YEAH!
