Does anyone here eat Tortillas or Flatbreads? I was going to make refried beans with cheese and avocado but am not sure what to wrap it in... I want to try making chicken salad but should I just wrap it in lettuce?

I did not eat anything like this until I reached goal.  I dont think you are far out?  Just eat the refried beans  alone.  I survived the pureed stage by eating refried beans with melted cheese on top for two weeks.

lettuce can be tough to eat early out.  Ensure the chicken is really chopped if making chicken salad.  Or try tuna salad.

At 5 weeks would stay away. Tortilla and flat bread are doughy and get stuck really easily. I waited until 6 months to try and even then it was only a bite. At 4 yrs I still only take a bite or two then open it up and eat the stuffing.

I am eating 1/2  small whole wheat tortilla. It goes down fine. I don't eat it every day though since I read so much about avoiding carbs on here!
