Anyone have any suggestions on something that
A; isn't disgusting
B; high in nutrients
C; can be done in a blender (no problem in straining it, though)

Bonus points if it would taste good as a popcicle. Having my tonsils out on weds., eating will suck.

    Consider fasting.

    I couldn't do fruit for the first 3 days because the sugar and acidity burned. I ended up living on chicken broth and water.

    Make smoothies.....fruit is good, you can add milk or yoghurt too, honey if you like it. Adding oats makes it thicker but you can dilute with some water or extra fruit juice. Smoothies can be made and frozen like popsicles.

    Why not make soup? That's liquid too and luke warm is ok.
    I had a great recipie for a chilled avocado soup...a raw soup which was very nice, you may find recipies on the internet.

    Soups, potato soup and anything that you can cook and puree with a blender.

    Thanks!
    Doc said cold/frozen food 1st 2-3 days. I've been sick and on antibiotics for 3 weeks, so nutrient empty/fasting is just a bad idea when I need to heal.

    Broth doesn't have much nutrients unless home made so I think I'll do that.

    Thanks for all the suggestions, peeps, appreciate it, will def. look at the peach pie juicy thing!

    Greek yogurt might be a good way to go.

    I lived on a soft foods, no solid meat diet for 10 weeks due to a surgical nightmare. My regular foods during that time were:

    Mashed potatoes
    Refried beans
    Cottage cheese
    Yogurt
    Jello
    Pudding
    Kefir life way drinks (must do if you're going to be taking antibiotics)
    Ice cream
    Sherbet


    Needless to say a lost a considerable amount of weight but I was not healthy.

    anything, flavor, fruit, veggie you want. Any combo. STICK TO HEALTHY THO! LOL
    6 ice cubes
    water til it'll blend
    blend

    breakfast- add some yogurt, fibre one cereal, skim milk to the ice cubes. It'll fill u (the fibre), you wont taste the bland fibre, and its awesome :)

    When the ex had his mouth wired shut, besides it being the best 7wks of our marriage, he ate everything thru a straw. Including coffee and doughnuts blended..ya.. dont do that.. but chinese food even still tastes like chinese food thru a straw..i tried it.

    Most people I know are laughing at the idea of me not being able to talk much for this long. *kitten*. haha
