Ok... My daughter is having her tonsils removed on Friday and I'm trying to get items in the house that she can eat following surgery. I know Ice Cream, popsicles, and Jello... Any other suggestions... Remember she is 5 and is sometimes a picky eater. Any and all help is appreciated.

Thanks!

Just a few ideas: soft foods... but not hot: mashed potatoes, noodles/pasta, cooled soups, pudding, Italian ice, milkshakes, things like Ensure for kids.

Hope she feels better quickly after her surgery!

Doulalc is right. I just wanted to add my 'good luck' :) my daughter is 5 and I couldn't imagine going through a surgery at this age, no matter how routine.

*hugs* good luck hon
