Looking for a healthy recipe that is great post-surgery?
Look no further!
This is my go-to recipe for something quick, nutritious, and can be eaten after any kind of mouth surgery (or just on a random Saturday morning).
If your child is small, and it is difficult to feed with a spoon, the following is a great option to squeeze the smoothie into his or her mouth. You’ll also have full control over the portion: Squeasy Food Pouch
Nutrition-Packed Smoothie Bowl
Perfect for that post-surgery food. The cold will feel good on the surgical sites, and the nutrition content is great for keeping energy up and bellies full.

Recipe Notes
This recipe will be loved by adults and kids alike! Feel free to substitute mango for blueberries, strawberries, or your favorite fruit.
Feel free to top with soft fruits and drizzle with honey!
The flaxseed meal in this recipe will help with the recovery from surgery for getting rid of bloating post-anesthesia!
