"mashed sweet potatoes were my jam. Sounds weird, but trust me, they're a lifesaver when chewing feels impossible..."
Actually, mashed sweet potatoes don't sound weird at all—pretty tasty and budget-friendly too. I relied heavily on scrambled eggs and oatmeal after my wisdom teeth came out. Bland, yeah, but easy on the wallet and mouth. Anyone ever try savory oatmeal recipes? Curious if that's a decent option or just plain odd...

Savory oatmeal isn't as odd as you'd think—had a patient once who swore by oatmeal with cheese and spinach after oral surgery. Personally, I'd stick to mashed potatoes or smoothies, but hey, whatever gets you through the "construction zone," right? Anyone brave enough to try oatmeal with cheese...?
Honestly, oatmeal with cheese doesn't sound half bad—kinda like grits or polenta, right? I mean, savory breakfasts are pretty common in other cultures. When my mouth was all stitched up, I got hooked on congee (Chinese rice porridge). Super comforting and easy to swallow. But spinach in oatmeal? Hmm, that's pushing my comfort zone a little bit...
Speaking of weird combos though, has anyone tried blending soups into smoothies? My niece swears by chilled blended veggie soups after dental work, but I'm still skeptical. Cold broccoli smoothie sounds... questionable at best. Curious if that's actually a thing or if she's just messing with me.
Honestly, cold broccoli smoothie sounds like a prank your niece might be pulling on you, lol. But chilled blended soups are definitely a thing—gazpacho is basically just that, right? When I had braces tightened, I lived off chilled cucumber-avocado soup for a couple days. Sounds weird, but it was actually refreshing and soothing. Still, broccoli smoothie...I think I'd rather stick to oatmeal with cheese!
Haha, broccoli smoothie does sound a bit intense...but honestly, props to you for even considering it. When your mouth is sore, creativity is key. Chilled soups like gazpacho or cucumber-avocado are actually great choices—not just soothing, but nutritious too. Oatmeal with cheese sounds comforting as well; just make sure it's not too hot or sticky to avoid extra irritation. Hang in there, it'll get easier soon enough!
