Hi everyone... Jim is going to have dental (gum) surgery tomorrow morning so I am looking for soft foods to feed him besides the basic jello
Any ideas?

Does it have to be cold? Maybe some sort of soufflé, Polenta, Custard, Mashed potatoes w/ gravy, pate? Cream of "pick your veggie" soups?

When I had all four of my wisdom teeth out at the same time, I lived on Boston Market's tortilla soup for a few days. LOL!
How about smoothies? By adding granola, peanut butter, tofu or whey powder, you could add a good protein boost to them, as well.
If blueberry muffins have blueberries in them, what do vegan muffins have?

Hmm, peanut butter smoothies sound good even if you don't need the softness!!

Ohh, a peanut butter smoothie does sound good! But don't let him use a straw to drink it with.
There's always applesauce. I love applesauce. ▼
Here is a delicious soup recipe that Jean posted for us. I believe it was from Cuisine, but forgot to note which issue.
* Exported from MasterCook * Zucchini-Parmesan Soup makes 4 1/2 cups Sweat in 3 T. unsalted butter: 4 cups zucc, diced (about 1 lb.) 1 cup onions, diced 1 T. garlic, minced Stir in; puree: 2 cups chicken broth (I used a combination of chicken & corn stocks)** 1/4 tsp. ground nutmet 1/2 cup carrot, diced 1/2 cup heavy cream (I used evaporated milk instead)** 1/4 cup parmesan, grated Finish with: 2 T. minced fresh parsley Salt & pepper to taste Sweat zucc, onion, and garlic in butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Cook for 10 min, stirring occasionally. Stir in broth and nutmeg, and bring to a boil Reduce heat and simmer till zucc is very soft, 5 min. Puree 1/2 the soup in a blender or food processor, then return it to the pan with carrot, cream, and parmesan. Simmer until carrot is tender and cheese melts, 5-8 min, stirring often. Finish with parsley, salt & pepper. **Jean's notes

How about a nice Gazpacho soup? I have a great recipe, but unfortunately it's at work and I'm not.

Jolene, how is Jim doing? I just thought of another Cuisine recipe that sounded good, but I can't remember if I made it or not. I think it might be in the "Perfect Pasta" book and had a meat sauce over polenta. Let me know if you want it and I'll type it up for you.
