Joined: Dec 2007 Posts: 138 | Pasta salad (One box of shell pasta cooked soft, 2-3 cut up green & yellow peppers, 3-4 cut up fresh tomatoes, Kraft Free Italian dressing). Keep chilled in fridge. NOTE: I like to heat mine up before I eat it because it goes down easier and is more soothing to my throat when it's warm.

Joined: Jun 2007 Posts: 5,260 | To eat this, I have to cook the pasta to overdone and doughy, the veggies the same way only I cook them in oil to make them soft enough to mash with my gums and make sure it is oily. It does vary this extra soft diet some.
