Nice, grown up meal ideas for someone with sore throat

[Lottapianos]

Poor DP has a very sore throat and is finding it painful to swallow. Obviously theres soup but hes finding it depressing now. Any other ideas for lunches and dinners that are easy (ish) to swallow, no massive lumps or scratchy bits and aren't like baby food? Ta

When I had my tonsils out I lived on Yorkshire puddings soakaed in gravy - bananas and mash potato were a nightmare and stung my throat more, but they may be okay if he’s not had surgery and just had a sore throat?!

Lasagne or pasta could work too?

Thanks Flip. Hes not had surgery, just a nasty throat.

Fish pie
Cottage pie
Mushroom Risotto

Mince and dumplings (though not very summer!)

Risotto, pea and asparagus perhaps?

Fish soup such as Cullen Skink

Chicken in white wine sauce served with rice

Poached fish fillet such as sole

Poached or scrambled eggs

Has he tried a numbing spray such as Difflam? The effects don’t last long but a dose before eating might just make it a little easier to eat.

Chicken soup is my go to for bad throats.

Plenty of ice cream too of course!

Thanks everyone, some great ideas, especially the ice cream!
