Mexican Breakfast Casserole



Recommended Posts

I found this recipe on the Lapband.com website. I'm eating it now and it's pretty tasty!

Mexican Breakfast Casserole

Serves 12

16 eggs, well beaten with 1/4 cup Water

1 bag Morningstar Farms frozen sausage crumbles (I couldn't find these so I chopped up a box and a half of the patties after defrosting them)

1 medium zucchini, peeled and sliced into half-circles

2 cups salsa

2 cups 2% reduced fat cheddar cheese

1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees

2. Spray a 9x13 baking pan with non stick cooking spray. Spread the frozen sausage crumbles over the bottom of the pan. Top with zucchini slices. Pour beaten eggs on top.

3. Bake for 30 minutes, remove from oven and spread salsa over casserole. Top with cheese and return to oven for 5-7 more minutes until cheese is melted.

4. Cut into squares and serve hot!

I made egg mugs. I just take liquid egg whites (Egg Beaters), mix in some turkey sausage, some of the Morningstar soy stuff, salsa and 1/2 to 1 of the Laughing Cow cheese wedges (love the spicy cheese one). cook in the micro for a minute or so and eat it right out of the mug. just make sure to spray it with nonstick spray first. Yum!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
