Eat these foods based on how YOU feel! Chew slowly and carefully. Remember to rinse after you eat!
If you want a Mexican flavour, this is really good. My tip is to add lots of sour cream its delicious and taste like a burrito. Texture is like mash potato so easy to eat!
Refried Beans with Sour cream and Cheese!
This is another popular food to eat post opt. I recommend sweet potato as it's more nutritious. You can also buy KFC potato gravy but the gravy can get cold.
Mash Potatoes (Sweet and Normal) or KFC potato gravy
This was one of my favourite meals to eat post opt as it was carb-heavy and made me more filled. Recommend this once you can move your jaw more!
Mac and Cheese
Bone Broth is very good for your health and gut especially with all the medicine you will be taking. I highly recommend this. It's light and easy to swallow.
Bone Broth
This is great to add more protein in your diet without having to chew. I wish I got the other flavours. It's not too sweet and you can drink half for breakie and the rest for lunch/ dinner.
Rokeby Protein Smoothie Strawberry
Good breakie/ lunch with protein to fill you up more!
Wicked Sister High Protein Banana Pudding
Same as the banana pudding, the strawberry is also great!
Wicked Sister High Protein Strawberry Pudding
If you want something sweeter than the strawberry and banana pudding, the caramel is perfect. It's not overly sweet so you can eat it in one go!
Wicked Sister High Protein Pudding Caramel
Coffee pudding taste good as well!
Wicked Sister High Protein Coffee Pudding
Cottage cheese is a great source of protein! Add it to anything like your scrambled eggs, mash avo or by itself!
Woolworths Creamed Cottage Cheese
Probiotic drink to balance your microbiomes in your stomach with all the medicine you will be taking! It taste great and you can have it before or after your medicine.
Yakult Probiotic Drink
More protein in icecream! This ice cream taste great with two flavours in one and not too sweet!
Twisted Healthy Treats Protein Pint Choc Brownie Batter Frozen
I recommend eating this a few days or week post op once your jaw is not as sore and has more movement. Chew slowly and carefully as the mince can still be chunky!
Woolworths Cottage Pie With Sweet Potato Mash
Easy breakie. Pair it with applesauce or mash bananas and honey. Make sure to add a little bit more water so it's not chunky.
Protein piklet from Aldi, pair it with mash banana, applesauce, yoghurt, and honey for a delicious breakie. Make sure to chew slowly and cut it in small pieces. Great a few days post op.
