What to Venture into

Can you tell that I've got food on my brain? Blended anything, even milkshakes, quickly become boring. Through relentless experiments, I've discovered a few things that may help add variety AND nutrition to your diet during recovery.
  • Cottage cheese. Really high in protein!
  • Savory egg custard. See my recipe here. Add less chicken broth if you want it to be a little more dense. It'll still be soft and never requires chewing.
  • Mashed potatoes. Add sour cream, extra butter, and/or guacamole to make it even fluffier.

Recipe: Egg Custard

If you're as sick of milkshakes as I am, you might want to try this savory egg custard recipe:
  1. Scramble two to three eggs in a bowl.
  2. Mix in one can of chicken broth. Real homemade chicken broth works even better.
  3. Steam the whole mixture in the bowl for 10 to 15 minutes, until it becomes custard-like.

This is rich in protein, and super nutritious. Enjoy!
