I will repeat what I once told you. My mama came to stay with me in Radford, Va. when I had my tonsils out at age 22. She had learned not long before how to make Beef Chow-mein. Well, that was what I was craving after the tonsilectomy. To the best of my memory, she made it for me about 4-5 days afterwards. It was mostly soft and if I’m not mistaken, she pressure cooked the beef. Things do change though.
On her diet, she can have noodles .... as long as they are overcooked. She’s had Fettucini Alfredo, mac and cheese, Top Ramen and Chicken Noodle soup. She has also had Cheddar Broccoli soup.
Yesterday the doc told me she could have the dark meat of chicken; I didn’t tell him that I had already given her some chicken breast. He said the breast was too dry and could bother either the stitches or the scabs. I kept my mouth shut. :)
I’m having a tough time trying to decide what to send for her lunch. I may try Chef Boyardee Raviolis tomorrow. I think it has been long enought that she can now have red sauce. Originally they said no orange juice or red sauce because of the acid.
They may be over-cautious.
I had mine out when I was 6 so I can’t remember much about it.
