    Maybe you could google some lentil/bean recipes? They're soft and still a nice protein source. Indian dahl comes to mind specifically - of you like that sort of thing.

    Maybe try something with eggs too, they're not just for breakfast.

    40 carbs a day? The typical recommendation for diabetics is 40 carbs per meal.

    I agree with the suggestion above of eggs and beans. Both soft foods that are nutrient dense.

    Do you eat fish or are all animal products off limit? Not really sure the connection between meat and cancer survivor.

    Outside of that, there are nuts, eggs, hard cheeses.
