No, Im not going on a crazy fad diet :). I am getting a wisdom tooth cut out in a few days. I am looking for some healthy, nourishing, satisfying liquid or really soft food ideas to get me through the few days following. Any ideas other than protein shakes (which I will do), pudding, yogurt :)

Cheers.

    I suggest lots of fruit smoothies!! You can even freeze the fruit to make the smoothies super cold and refreshing!!

    When I had my wisdom teeth out I used it as an excuse to eat really delicious, buttery whipped/mashed potatoes :) slathered with gravy! It was higher in calories than my usual portion of potatoes but considering that's all I had for supper, it was okay!

    I also did the protein shake & frozen fruit smoothie thing. Get the full fat, creamier yogurts to keep your cals up too. After a couple of days I ate scrambled eggs for breakfast too, which was fine.

    I had the idea to puree steamed carrots and veggies, but that's a lot of effort and I ended up not even needing to.

    Mashed vegetables. You can prepare a number of vegetables just as you would traditional mashed potatoes - turnips, parsnips, cauliflower, sweet potatoes, butternut squash, etc. Or a combination of them.

    soups - pumpkin, carrot, butternust squash, lentil, split pea soup, tomato, etc. Actually most vegetable soups can be blended to a smooth consistency.

    Chicken soup was my saving meal when I had my wisdom teeth out. Chop up the veggies and chicken really small and add a few noodles ( NO RICE). Beef stew was another go to. As before just make sure it is chopped small and cooked until very soft,
