Who knew runny mashed potatoes would be so good!

 Mmmmm, I just finished my 1/4 cup of runny mashed potatoes... who knew they would be so good and something I look forward to!

I had my two week post-op NUT appointment yesterday and am now finally on full liquids.  She said mashed potatoes would be okay if thinned enough to run from a spoon.  Well, I had my first taste for dinner last night and thought I had died and gone to heaven!  I thinned them with low sodium, reduced fat cream of chicken soup, then pureed the hell out of em.  Yes, they were instant so far from the real thing, but OMG!

Now my NUT also said creamed and pureed soup and said to look for soups that have 15 grams of protein in them?  Anyone find any soup like this?  I'm thinking to get a soup that high in protein, I'm going to need to add a scoop of unflavored protein to it!

at this point in your journey whatever works is a good thing...
caution when adding protein to hot things it will CLUMP and is nasty. so be sure to follow individual directions.

and...

remember to sip sip sip your fluids...

happy trails to you!

There are so many things that I don't remember because it was so long ago BUT that's one of those things I DO remember!!!  They were soooooooooooo good!!!  Thanks for the memories!
