Day 3of the puree diet HELP!!!

I have been home for 3 days and I am totally over the purred foods! What were your favorite recipes ? I read that these 2 weeks are the hardest now I see why !

go to theworldaccording toeggface.com she has lots of recipes for this stage!!!!!

I bought and pureed various kinds of soups... try some of the good ones from the market, or go to a soup,salad and bread place (Panera) and get take home soup. Stick it in the blender, strain if it doesn't all get smooth. I loved butternut squash soup from Panera ! Also try different yogurts, sf puddings, and definitely log on to The world according to eggface. She has some great ideas.

This is the recipe for one of my favorite soups, might be very high in calories with the cream but work with it if you like a little bit of spice to your food.  I do add more thai paste.  I havent' had the surgery so not sure how people deal with spicy food afterwards.
