Lets Talk Bariatric suitable food

So I am in the Puree or Mushi food stage.  I am afraid I am still too busy trying to get any food in to cook any special recipes as such.

Here are some easy go to foods for this stage:

  • Chabani Yogurt
  • Softly scrambled or poached egg
  • Small amount of runny porridge with a little honey
  • Creamed Corn (not a favorite, I never really liked it but some people love it) 
  • Mushed Pumpkin
  • Mashed Avocado (guacamole) 
  • Refried beans, with a little salsa and low fat cheese
There are some great recipes to be had out there, I recently discovered this website with recipes written by a chef who has had Gastric Surgery herself.

So pop in and have a look, she has some wonderful recipes and a beautiful way of presenting her website.

I hope my list gives you a couple of idea's of easy mushy food to reach for.

  1. Chelae, I didn't spend much time in the mushy stage but have you tried ricotta cheese with tomato sauce? Put in small pan, salt & pepper to taste, add can spaghetti/tomato sauce & bake till hot.
