Hello,

My last round of going through oral cancer surgery was in 2013 and just had surgery again and back on a feeding tube. I do not good good on the feeding tube feeds as my body does not like it. I am on Kate Farms and it not as bad.

In 2013 I found on this site a recipe for making your own food and for me it worked wonder. I can remember is had Grape Juice, Peanut Butter, Boil Eggs, carrot and a few other items. I do not remember how much of each item. I would blend it up in my blend tec and then run it through my very fine strainer.

If anyone know how I can find it or you have it please let me know.

Barry

The Vitamix blender works best if you layer starting from wet to frozen and then
top off with wet again like yogurt and avocados and additional soy milk if needed.
You may need to scrape down the sides midway through the process…And don’t
be afraid to run the blender on HIGH a couple of times to ensure that everything
is well blended and without lumps!!
No need to strain the mixture as it will be well blended and smooth.

There are micro nutrients that are stirred into the cups right before bolus feeding
A separate list of those and Amazon links for purchase will also be put up. These
ingredients impact various issues common to radiated patients, such as anemia,
immune health, and more.

A lot of the simple things we buy at Trader Joes. Good prices, and good quality. Other things we buy at a regular grocery store, and then there are then list of things we get from Amazon because of the price, or because chasing to a ton of health food stores to find it all is more time consuming than I care to engage in.
I'm trying to figure out how to get the message board to let me put up all this as a PDF, its not cooperating, and then some links to the Amazon specific things as well. So more later and a second blender recipe that takes a little more time but I alternate the two every couple batches
