What foods are on the pureed diet?
The pureed diet starts at 10-14 days out from your surgery. The pureed diet is based more on texture or consistency of foods rather than specific foods. Stage One baby foods, pureed baby food meat, small curd cottage cheese, yogurt such as Yoplait Light or Yoplait Carb monitor or Dannon Light and Fit are appropriate. Do not eat chunks of fruit in it! Slenderized macaroni and cheese, mashed potatoes, thin cream or wheat or oatmeal are allowed as well. Refried beans are allowed with out melted cheese on top. These may be very gas producing and bother some peoples so take it easy!
