Rosy,

One thing I found that worked great while I was in your stage of finding food that goes down without much effort is a baby food grinder. They are about 10 bucks and found at Walmart and Target.

You can take all solids and grind them up and they come out with just the right texture. Not all liquid or all chunky but just the right texture to go down smoothly. You can also easily add some liquid like mile to the mixture to your liking. don
