Chandler had to have two back (bottom) molars (one on each side of her mouth) pulled today. :( She's not supposed to have any solids foods tonight. Knowing her, it may be a day or two before she'll feel like chewing much. I need some ideas!!!

We can't buy veggie broth mix locally, else I'd make her some veggie broth.I guess I could buy a can, but :shrug who knows if it's good, healthy (:laughtears), etc. . . What can I fix for her?

Oh, no dairy, either. . .

Can she eat applesauce, smoothies, purees? Or does she need to stick with just the thin liquid?

mashed potatoes, mashed cauliflower, hummus, baked sweet potatoes (mine are always mushy, i'm assuming that's normal)

veggie juice? Bolthouse has a GREAT line.

would popscicles hurt her teeth? even homemade?
pureed soup (even chunky, but through the blender)?

pureed fruits?

mashed potatoes?

edited to fix non-veggie ideas! sorry

He just said to not give her solids but we can give her anything that will go down easily.

Applesauce is great!! :tu I even have apples awaiting saucing. :laughtears We can make smoothies too. Thanks, Chris!

Oooh. . Jessica,you have good ideas too! She loves baked sweet potatoes, especially with lots of "butter." She likes hummus too.

:hug Y'all are great. . . I keep having to fix my post because y'all keeping replying. Popsicles would be great. We even have some in the house. Yes, we are vegetarians. I can definitely put some fruits in the blender for her. :)

Can you borrow a juicer and make carrot juice blends?
