non solid foods

I think these other posts have covered most of my ideas. I will say that when my sister's best friend broke her jaw (it involved drinking) and had it wired shut, she could only eat non-solid foods for 6 weeks...

She LIVED off her blender. She got pretty good at putting things in the blender and liquefying them and then mixing them into mashed potatoes and other soft foods to make yummy tasting meals.

My very favorite thing is my juicer. If you know anyone with a juicer they'd loan you, you would LOVE it. You can juice pretty much any fruit or vegetable (except potatoes and bananas) to get a huge dose of vitamins and minerals with a great taste. There are a ton of recipes online for using a juicer. I've juiced celery, garlic, onion, etc and when you mix it with apples and pears it masks the flavor while still delivering the powerful goodness of the veggies.

Good luck!
