My SO will be having a rather involved dental surgery in a couple weeks.  He's already eating cottage cheese, scrambled eggs, applesauce and soup.  And protein shakes.

I'm wondering if you have any soft meals or casseroles that could be eaten after dental surgery.   I need new ideas.

All suggestions welcome....   TIA.

I've had to do that, an implant and TMJ. Besides what you listed...macaroni and cheese, yogurt, soup over mashed potatoes, toast (eat carefully). I got sick of sweets. Cream of wheat. I have to watch my carbs, so it was tough. Lots of eggs. 😀

Yogurt, cottage cheese, ice cream, sour cream, mashed bananas, macaroni dishes. I am sure he will be told what to eat after the surgery.

Pasta dishes like angel hair or cheese ravioli cut up into small bite size pieces, cooked to be soft, and then with multiple different types of sauces.....MMMM, yummy, with or without dental surgery!

Creamy soup--tons of flavors!

Many "soft" foods are HIGH CALORIE, so keep that in mind...

NEVER drink anything thru a straw!

I minced or shred regular meals (until it looked like cat food).

Good luck!

Risotto would be yummy.

@Janey2 I recently had dental surgery...they did not tell me specifically what to eat, only to eat soft food.

I saw split pea soup listed here. 
'Very gourmet: split pea soup with sour creme and white wine poured over!

I had implants a couple years ago and had flipper teeth while I healed (6 months). I ate pancakes, oatmeal, soup and lots of eggs. I found I had to cut most stuff up since I had no front teeth (uppers).
