My most recent "major" dental procedure was a couple of years ago, gum surgery in four different parts of my mouth. I anticipated some trouble chewing and arranged to borrow a blender ahead of time. It's possible Rainbowzz may have some use for this recipe too, after her extractions:
Dagwood Sandwich (standard version for comparison):
2 slices whole wheat bread
About 1 oz. Swiss cheese, sliced
1 tomato, sliced
About 1/2 oz. feta cheese
1 generous handful greens (dandelion or romaine)
Dash of salad dressing
Blender version
Blend 2 slices bread with a little milk, pour puddle on one side of large plate.
Blend cheese(s) with a little milk, pour on plate next to first puddle.
Blend tomato with greens, pour on plate next to other puddles.
Eat with spoon, rotating among the puddles.
I seem to remember puddled chicken and even puddled steak (with puddled collard greens) on occasion. My surgeon said the stitches could come out after 2 weeks but it took a little longer for the actual appointment. It was still a bit painful eating normal food even then.
