I got the ok from my surgeon to start eating ground meats but I've been too nervous to try it. My son requested tacos today so I figured I'd be brave and go for it. I used ground turkey breast, seasoning the raw turkey with low sodium taco seasoning before cooking. I also made fat free refried beans. I mixed one tablespoon of turkey meat, one tablespoon of beans, one tablespoon of shredded cheese and a splash of Tabasco sauce. Oh the fabulous flavors in my mouth! So thankful I tolerated it well.

Sounds yummy! I like to put taco meat over lettuce, so filling. Of course when your allowed to have lettuce it will be a great option also.

Yes I'm really missing lettuce. I can't wait until I'm ok'd for that. One day at a time though :)

Sounds tasty!  I think the first "soft food" I ate was a heavily modified salad from Chipotle :P

Chipotle is my favorite place to eat. I thought about getting a bowl with barbacoa, beans, cheese and guacamole, then breaking it up into 1/4 cup portions and freezing them. I'm guessing a bowl now would be about 5-6 meals at least.

That sounds about right for the number of portions.  It's pretty great.  When I get things in restaurants I have to really make sure I like it, since I'll be stuck eating it for days to come!
