hi jo. at the day centre where i used to work, many of the service users needed pureed food and the cook would just plate up an ordinary dinner and whizz it through the liquidiser, adding some hot water if needed to make it the right consistency. she even used to do salads this way. when we had a relief cook, she liquidised each item seperately and put a bit of each on the plate. it's probably going to be trial and error to see what suits your own needs best, but you can puree just about anything and just add liquid (hot or cold water, gravy, custard, milk, etc.) to get the right thickness.
