Suitable for Post-op

[Roni]

I found this recipe on a weight watcher site and was wondering if this would be suitable for the liquid phase of the post-op diet. Check it out and let me know what you think.

3/4 cup(s) Nesquik Fat-Free Chocolate Milk, or similar product, chilled
1 Tbsp unsweetened cocoa, powder
1 1/2 Tbsp sugar
1 1/2 Tbsp reduced-fat peanut butter
1 1/4 cup(s) ice cube(s)

Place all ingredients in a blender; cover and blend until smooth. Yields about two 1 cup per servings.

Hmmm - I'm not sure Debbie that it would be suitable for the liquid phase, as peanut butter is one of the proteins recommended for the puree phase. Looks yummy though - I have a similar recipe that uses unjury protein powder.

Protein provides 4 calories per gram and is found in foods like meat, fish, poultry, eggs, dairy products, beans, nuts, and tofu. Proteins are an essential human nutrient, obtained from both plant and animal foods. Though their greatest commercial use is in food products, they are also employed in adhesives, plastics, and fibres.
