I am pre op band so can't help hun. But didn't want ot read and run.

I used to do sweet potato, pea and mint (puree), etc when weening if that helps.

try making a homemade vegtable soup, with all veg diced into very small cubes, then the veg will become very soft.

I made loads of homemade veg soup after having the band fitted, and like Liz , blended it down really fine, and you should be able to tolerate it. The sweet potato is a good idea (just the inside of course), with mint and peas (I can taste it now -mmmmmmmm)

What about mushy peas? Theyre veggies and legumes so ultra good for you - and they taste great (I think). VV cheap also.

mmm i love mushy peas, one of my favs

vegtable curry is a good idea as it disguises the taste of the veg, very tasty !!

I'm sat here eating parsnip, sweet potatoe, beetroot and carrot crisps from aldi and they are delicious.Thin slices of each cooked in sunflower oil and really tasty. you'd never get me to eat beetroot, but I like it like this
