Good choice and a decent method! Been a bit away from here lately so I'll
have to guess you are pending full dentures and looking for foods that work
for now until it's healed enough?

Yes but I have to guess at what will appeal to you. Some isn't optimal made
this way but for now, will work well enough. I mean, ya gotta eat!

Cream of corn will work and can be spiffied up with fine chopped clam meats
(mince small).
Canned baby peas with butter and finely minced onions, can make a white
sauce with them if desired.
Squash (yellow works best) simmered to soft with minced onion bits
Canned asparagus tips (soft and lucious)
sticky rice (regular american long grain may be a slight problem)
Mashed potatoes with gravy are obvious
Baked sweet potato or white (I use a crockpot and steam these all the time,
wash but dont dry and add 3 TB water or so and set on low).
Butter beans (large dry limas) made with smoked ham hock (mince ham hock
bits to what you can handle)- crockpot favorite
Carrots simmered with butter then put in blender with heavy non-sweet cream
to make a soup

That help?
