I'm having a tooth extracted this week, and while I know all the usual soft foods (applesauce, yogurt, cottage cheese, etc.), I was wondering if anyone had better savory options, or some ideas I hadn't thought of. I know there's also soup, but it's pretty hot and there's only so much gazpacho I can handle.

While a younger version of me, or any of my kids, would be happy to eat nothing but pudding and froyo all week, adult me would like something that actually tastes like a meal!
