I had my tonsils removed a few days ago, so recipes or meals that wont hurt my throat. Im planning on cooking for me plus a few others. a Dinner meal. Want it to be something good since others will be over, if it were just me, I'd be fine just eating Macaroni and Cheese haha. thanks in advance to everyone.
good luckTry a nice creamy soup. will go down easy for you and there are some that look very fancy. serve it with some fresh bread ( for the others) and then ice cream for dessert. You could add a salad for the other people too and then you can just eat more soup. Don't try too much too fast it will just hurt more for you.
You can serve a few different courses that should not cause too many issues with your tonsils - or lack there of!
Open with a pureed type of soup - like a butternut squash, tomato Parmesan basil, or cheddar broccoli. I remember when I had my tonsils out I was a bit mucus-y afterwords so if you are too, then opt for a non-dairy soup instead, like a summer squash veggie soup. Remember not to make anything too spicy because it might irritate your throat. Allow your guests to add extra pepper/other spices if they want to their portions.
For the main course, you mentioned that you'd be fine eating macaroni and cheese, so why not make an adult version? Make a cheese sauce using a blend of cheeses, add in some panchetta otraditionalal smoked bacon, sauteed mushrooms and onions and some peas and serve with grilled chicken breast (which you can either eat little pieces at a time, or omit from your portion).
For dessert, of course ice cream can be on the menu, so you can try to fancy it up by getting a great gelato (Italian ice cream) from your local grocery store or italian restaurant and serving it with cappuccinono (which will feel nice on your throat).
Hope dinner works out well, and feel better!
