Meal for someone who has had serious dental work

[rodz]

Hi, The wife has undergone some quite extensive dental surgery. She will not be able to chew for a few days.
Surviving on vitamen drinks etc.
Any ideas for some easy to swallow meals?
Regards
Rodz

Trout, mackerel, chicken, salmon mousses

Soups of all sorts - make a 'chunky' veg one for everyone and then liquidise hers

Risottos

Rice (and other milk) puddings

scrambled eggs
omelette
bread & butter with a scraping of jam, marmite etc....
soft boiled egg & solders
cereal left in milk to go soggy

An acquired taste but tripe and onions with mashed potato.

Well, I like it!

Stir fry foods or rice/pasta based dishes,try and make sure she avoids too many sugary foods as these are the ones that tend to come in easy to eat form.

All the best to your wife rodz bless her. Just give her non chewable liquidy type foods as the other posters have said , just what and when she feels she can try them , and probably little and often .Oh and try to make sure her mouth is cleaned after eating to keep the surgery infection free and aid the healing. xxx

Carob drinks are quite good and come in various flavours.

Thanks, I am sure I can conjure up something now.
Must admit the tripe and onions got me going for myself, havn`t had any for years.
Thanks again Rodz

I recently had some dental work done and could not eat crunchy hard food for a week, so I made up the following dishes, which were quite yummy and nutritious:-

Potato and mushroom curry
Lentil dahl
Sweet potato, carrot and pea curry
Mushroom rice
