Any one eat goat cheese?
I LOVE goat cheese and I was looking and it has 7g of protein per oz. how does that compare to other cheeses? I cannot stand the texture of cottage or ricotta cheese.... I can handle ricotta in something, but not by itself. I'm worried I won't have enough things I can eat. I am trying to get used to greek yogurt. It's hard.
any food suggestions that don't have weird textures?
I have issues with texture too, can hardly tolerate Jello, pudding or yogurt. Try ricotta baked and topped with marinara sauce, it is pretty good. If you search this site for baked ricotta there are recipes. I have simplified it by just cooking 1/4 cup at a time and season it and top with the sauce as I am only cooking for myself and not a family. Then last night I added some slices of chicken Italian sausage which added another texture. Maybe topping with ground meat sauce would add the same affect and more protein.
I recently switched to Greek yogurt from regular and found it to have a better mouth feel. Per suggestions by others on here I am eating the Dannon Light & Fit Greek and it is pretty good.
Does the Dannon L&F Greek have any "bits" in it? I'm looking for flavored greek yogurt with no bits!

As Greek yogurt goes the dannon light and fit is probably the closest to regular yogurt. The raspberry has a very few seeds but the fruit flavored are pretty much yogurt and completely demolished fruit.
The orange cream, key lime, strawberry cheese cake, chocolate types and the coffee ish one are pretty much smooth.
I'm in my program's Pureed Food phase and I'm obsessed with the World According to Eggface's Baked Ricotta. You'll find it in this post. Like the other reply, I'm also cooking for just me, so I make the full recipe and then put 1/4 cup servings into tiny little containers (1/2 cup Tupperware) and freeze them. I get 8 meals from each recipe. I'd also try refried beans - I looove them!
