part time eating

[TinyLady]

Apart from Ice cream, I enjoy omelette, fish like salmon or tuna (no bones), eggs in various formats work. Smooth soup, yoghurt and really wet rice with a sauce (similar to risotto). I'm not a fan of mash, but then I never was. But a cottage pie (no veg lumps) with plenty of gravy works well.

There are a lot of great soft foods to eat. They should be available on the MNDA website if they really care.

Porridge, Weetabix and hot milk, soup, yoghurt, rice pudding...

which foods are you part time eaters eating?

I eat a small lunch most days, which is the only non-tube nourishment I get, so I try to eat tasty meals and make them count. I am vegetarian, (meats can be troublesome to chew and swallow because of their texture) - some favourites meals are:

• Omelettes – very versatile, easy to eat.
• Risotto – again, very versatile, easy to eat (I cannot eat ordinary rice, but can manage risotto rice)
• Pastas – spaghetti is broken into small pieces before cooking making it easy to eat. Then add to a saucy sauce full of herbs/easy to eat veg (mushrooms and garlic, yummy), garlic and grate in cheese for extra protein.
• Stir fry – finely chopped veg, noodles, sauce, but not too spicy or I’ll cough for an hour!

I don’t eat mashed potato but it’s probably easy to eat with gravy and blitzed meat? xx
