Canned supplements like Ensure are nutritious if you can get her to drink it.
You can make anything that she likes the flavor of and put it into the blender. Add a little milk if it needs to be thinner.
Also VERY IMPORTANT--Make sure she is not lying down when you try to feed her. She needs to be as upright as possible while eating, and stay that way for at least 30 minutes after eating.

By whirling soft-cooked vegetables with your basic cream soup recipe in a blender, you can add a lot of nutrients to her diet in a form that's easy to swallow and digest.
Basic Cream Soup
1 cup milk
1/2 cup heavy cream
1 cup chicken broth
3 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon white pepper
In a blender or food processor, combine milk, cream, chicken broth, butter, flour, salt, and white pepper. Blend well, about 1 minute.
Pour into a saucepan and heat until hot, about 5 minutes.
Variations: Add cooked broccoli, asparagus, cauliflower, lima beans, green beans, carrots, or mixed vegetables.
If the doctor OK's it, you can also add protein powder (available in any health food store) to smoothies, milk shakes, or sorbets. Just avoid making them with fruits that have small seeds such as strawberries because the tiny seeds can irritate the digestive system.
My late father in law would only eat meat, potatoes, breads, and a few soups. I got very good at "hiding" vegetables in other forms that he wouldn't recognize!

My grandma lived to be 103. I made her apple pies and pecan pies, I chopped the pecans in a food processor so they not halves. She liked most soups that not too spicy. Elbow Mac and Cheese or add a little chopped up fried hamburger. Most veggies as you stated, cooked soft. But, I guess it depends on how well their digestive system works and the avaliable teeth for chewing.

I have not seen any recipes that include your grandma. My guess is she will go well with porridge and minced vegetables.

You can put anything in the food processor and puree it. This is done alot in nursing homes. Works well.
