Food... Sort of...

Some people forget that the jaw is a joint, and in turn, can have the same difficulties as any other joint to a person with EDS. Personally, I have TMJ, a small overbite, and stretched ligaments in the joint itself. The big blow came when I got into a car accident a few years back and clenched my jaw. It popped the bugger right out on both sides.
So now, with 41 days until my jaw surgery, I figured I should start shrinking my stomach and start finding recipes that taste somewhat like a real meal. Soup is always a good place to start. I found some ones that are mainly broth and a couple that wouldn't be terrible blended. Applesauce is pretty much pre-chewed (*gross thought, I know) so that will do. I got a few nutritional drinks to try and so far the Vanilla Ensure is my top contender. In a packet of recipes sent with my pre-surgical information, I found a recipe where you blend peaches, juice, cinnamon  and nutmeg to make it taste like peach cobbler. Worth a shot, right? The thing I'm not looking forward to is the meat-based baby food. It said to mix bullion with it to thin it out and make it - well - bearable but I'm still a skeptic and working up the gusto to try it. So far I have the suggestion of cream of wheat and protein smoothies... any more ideas? Leave suggestions in the comment section below! Anything - no matter how crazy - is welcome! I'll be writing reviews and surgery updates for you all to follow. I had a hard time finding recipes so I'm going to try to compile as many as possible on here.
As always, stay blessed!
