Hi Shell, have you had a look in the recipe section for some puree ideas? http://www.wlsurgery.com/wls-recipes-forum/66935-food-puree-stage-soups-sauce-recipes.html

Yeah, thanks Shel
It doesn't list individual meats, just chicken in a broth style meal.
Will just have to give it a go me thinks.

Cheers. x

Hi Shell, I blended poached chicken in gravy, I thought it was good but not fantastic. I also blended up a fish pie which I also thought tasted good. I waited until I had been on purees a week and then had minced lean beef in tomato sauce well blended of course and that was good. Some people can't deal with blended meat but I thought it was okay. To each their own, lol. Give it a try and see what you think.

After puree is soft foods (think mushed up with a fork not a blender) and then progress onto solid foods. I was 10 weeks out last x-mas and I had a lovely tiny 'normal' meal, I would think that you would at 7-8 weeks out would be able to have a bit of a normal meal but everyone is different and you should always follow your own instructions. I had my meat slow cooked and with gravy, I ate slow and only really ate a bite or two of everything but I enjoyed it! Take a look in the recipe section, my holiday stuff is still there in the stickies.
