I had a root canal and some other dental work yesterday, and that side of my mouth is so tender, chewing a marshmallow hurts. So, what's your favorite healthy soft food? It seems like my usual go-tos are full of junk or carbs...

    If you just had major dental work done, you should have been given a Food-selection list prior to leaving the office. If you didnt, your dental office ought to be smacked upside their heads... talk about a HUGE LIABILITY!

    Low fat cottage cheese. Add a small dollop of jam for sweetness :)

    Oatmeal, and low fat cheese? Feel better!
  • Smoothies, made with yogurt and fruit, maybe even throw in some spinach. Hope you feel better soon :)
