Did this place used to have a forum for special dietary needs? I couldn't find it. I just had weight-loss surgery. I'm still on a liquid diet, but in a few weeks I'll be allowed to have pureed food. It must be THOROUGHLY pureed.
So I want to do something with carrots, but not end up with "carrot baby food." I was thinking, maybe saute the carrot and add some celery and onion, too? I'll need a little liquid with it to puree, I think. Some vegetable stock? How about lemon or orange juice? Definitely salt and pepper. What other spices?
I have been without real food for four weeks now, and it's amazing how much I look forward to the simplest thing. It's amazing how desensitized I get to eating, normally. Now, I feel like I'm going to explode with joy when I get a tiny taste of the carrot puree.
