My sister told me that she made a lot of chili that she then blended into a puree when she had her surgery, which sounds like an excellent idea to me! I bought a pouch which only needs water and tomato paste added to it which I'm going to try out.
Mal: Okay. She won't be winning any beauty contests anytime soon. But she is solid. Ship like this, be with ya 'til the day you die. Zoe: 'Cause it's a deathtrap.

I'd think anything with a strong main flavor (chilis, curries, garlics) would be good. When the texture is minimal, seems like a kick is called for.

You have to remember that being a 5-time Olympic medalist means Hilary Knight has been playing hockey at an elite level at least 16 years. It's impossible for her to be a teenage girl less than 16 years old, thus the President's complete lack of interest.
Kathy, do they have Bear Creek chili packets for sale near you? That stuff is great, especially if you dissolve a little brown sugar in the water before adding the tomato paste and chili mix.

I think what I bought was Bear Creek. Brown sugar, hmm? I'll definitely try that out!

I don't know if this meets your needs, but I've been fond of Desert Garden's dry soup mixes [link] for the occasional fix where I don't wanna actually cook all evening. Potato ones are nummy.
Oooh, cheaper at [link]

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Kathy, I'm so glad to see your pixels and hear that everything is going well! Also, the pureed chili idea sounds brilliant!

Welcome home, Kathy! Glad to hear everything went well.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Hey, Kathy!
My home internet is down, and my phone is cranky. I have fucking had it with the Cliq. I love Android, but this hardware is for the birds. This is my third phone and suddenly the attitude detector thingy isn't working. I just fired it up this morning and sent the old one back at noon! But it is the only Android phone at TMobile with a keyboard, dammit.

You could have my phone and then you'd really spit (which I can rarely answer and can't figure out how to check my messages. As lori can attest. But that might be willful ignorance.)
Someday....I'm just afraid my brother will buy me an iTouch or iPhone for xmas. Ack.
