Skip the cottage cheese and you gotta deal! I'm spending lots of time with Dad in Chicago during treatment (IMRT x 25 w/ brachy to folo)and this sounds like an excellent meal for him to have before rad starts on Wednesday! He's been able to eat more and more solid food each day since the tumor was removed from his tongue on 4/27 and he's been encouraged to eat what he wants now because he won't want to during/after rad. He's not much with computers, but I'm going to ask him to contribute a family recipe this week--we're Italian! Thanks for the upbeat post Danny Boy. This website has been such a help to my family. Ciao, Tina
