soft foods..help!

hey everyone! hope everyone is having a great friday :)

so I need a little help here, yesterday my surgeon said i could start my soft food diet. i did the whole scrambled egg beaters with low fat cheese deal which was a delight! but i'm running out of ideas here!

help!!! i know all of you out there went through it and probably have some really good idea you could give me for soft foods :)

any advice?

hey there, I ate a LOT of eggs....but also cottage cheese, low sugar applesauce, vegetarian low fat refried beans, protein shakes, and lots of soups...luckily I wasn't in this stage for too terribly long!!!  hope you're feeling great so far!!!  Kim

I ate a lot of cottage cheese (I was allowed to have it with a couple saltine crackers just to make it super exciting - and also to "spice it up" I stirred in a tiny bit of spagetti sauce), chili run through a food processor and egg beaters. Personally, I do not care for refried beans, but they fit into the soft food category and they provide good protien - so if you like refried beans, go for it.  Try them with a little cheese, maybe a smidge of salsa and sour cream.   I am having brain failure, because I know I ate more than that but I just can't think of stuff now.  If my brain decides to function and I remember more I'll make sure to post. Always rememebr that this too shall pass and in a couple months (maybe sooner!) you'll be eating chewable things again.

I like all those ideas, my addition is spit pea soup - homemade, extra thick with little bits of ham for extrra protein...

these are the thing I ate-- Chili, String Cheese, Yogurt(tons of it), Beans, Tuna, - then drinking my protein shakes.

tuna, refried beans (I pratically lived on them), i also ate mashed potatoes with unflavored protein powder in it :)  ), protein shakes, cottage cheese, yogurt, soups, eggs, i know there  was more it was a month of my life, maybe i blocked it out haha
