This seems to much food for when your only allowed 2-4 tablespoons of food. Could you make this using half of what Is call for. Thank you
Hey Martha!
When you separate out the servings (this recipe makes 8 servings) it SHOULD end up in that 2-4 tablespoon range. Our dietitians use the 4 phase diet guidelines when creating these recipes.
If you make this and it ends up being too much food, just eat until you are full. NEVER push past the point of feeling full, especially this early post-op!!
So, to answer your question, yes you could definitely make half. But you could also make all of it and then portion it out to what suits your appetite and capacity to eat.
Hope this helps!

Hi where can I find the nutritional facts on this amazing meal? Thanks in advance.
Hi there! It should be displaying now 🙂 Let me know if you’re still having an issue seeing it!
Have you frozen the left over and reheated? Trying to be prepared for my puree stage and was curious how frozen puree foods could be reheated?
This is one of the best things I’ve made on the pureed phase. I made it mostly as directed (Changes: sauted some onion and zucchini (allowed by my surgeon) before adding the sausage, added a bit of salt and more cilantro than it called for), took about half of it, pureed it and put in appropriately sized ramekins for 4 future meals. The other half my guys got to eat (un-pureed) and they enjoyed it too. 🙂
Looking forward to trying some of your other recipes!
Wow! That’s sounds delicious. We are glad that you’ve liked our recipe. 🙂
