    Chapter 1: Week Three (Soft Pureed Food) Recipes

    After one long week with just clear, sugar-free liquids and a week that allowed you to add thinned cream and/or soft noodle soups, sugar-free pudding,

    sugar-free sorbet, and non-fat yogurt to the list, now you can have a few more satisfying foods.  However, the new food items must be pureed.

    Even pureed, we now have enough food ingredients that we can start to put together some tasty food options using simple recipes.  This week, you can add the following ingredients, remembering to mash, blend or puree them:

    Mashed avocado

    Mashed fruit, i.e. bananas

    Canned salmon

    Canned tuna

    Scrambled eggs

    Soups

    Ground chicken with stock

    Ground beef with stock

    Boiled vegetables

    Steamed vegetables

    Soggy cereal

    Soft cheese, limited amount

    Low-fat cottage cheese

    Low-fat mayonnaise

    Hummus

    Coconut milk

    Almond milk

    Protein shake or smoothie - one per day, blended with yogurt, non-fat milk or cottage cheese

    You need to AVOID the following items:

    -  Sugar

    -  Starchy foods

    -  Fibrous vegetables

    Goals

    -  Consume 60 grams of protein every day and about 70 grams if you are a man (or whatever your doctor tells you).

    -  Eat your food slowly.

    -  Introduce only one new food from the list above per meal, notating any food intolerances.

    Introduce only one of the aforementioned new food items per meal and take notice of whether or not your body reacts to the food.  You may get nauseated and vomit or have other reactions, so you don’t want to introduce more than one item at a time.

    Some recipes do combine several ingredients, so if one meal upsets your system, you may want to go back to a clear liquid diet for a day and then move on to a different new food.

    On a later date, you can divide the components of that offending meal up and try one new ingredient during a meal and then another one the next meal to figure out which ingredient your system wasn’t taking (i.e. separate the beef from the guacamole or try beef with no spices).  You want to know what to avoid for a while!

    Take physical notes of what the offending food was that you tried to add, how your body reacted to it, etc. 

    To get the required amount of protein daily, you’ll want to take advantage of shakes and smoothies because the protein powder in them give you a lot of protein per sip!
