Jaffa Recipes....easy to make and good.



Recommended Posts

I thought I would start a thread for my recipes and just add to the thread as I have time. I'm hoping to just post a recipe each time I cook something.

So here is the one I made last night.

1 can Rotel (you can substitute with another can of tomatoes and a tbsp of chili powder)

1 can diced tomatoes

4 cans chicken (the small tuna sized kind)

8 oz sour cream

Open all the cans put it in a pan, heat it up until boiling and the chicken falls a part.

Drain off liquid....doesn't got to be perfect just a quick drainage.

Add in sour cream.

Thats it....your first installment of "open a can put it in a pan"

More tomorrow!!!!!

This recipe can be made in a crockpot

Just put it in a small 2qt. crockpot and put it on low for 8 hours....or hi for 4 hours. Use one large fresh chicken breast. Let it cook, then drain and add sour cream.

Jaffa Cornbread

1 Box Cornbread Mix

1 Can of Corn (don't drain it)

1 Can Creamed Corn

1 stick of butter

8 oz sour cream

Use the stick of butter to coat the inside of a casserole pan....10 x 8 or something close

Then melt the rest of the butter in the microwave. Mix it with the cornbread mix. Add sour cream, open all of the cans and put them in the pan, mix well and pour into casserole dish.

Bake at 350 for 55 minutes. Bake until inserting a knife gives you sticky mush on knife, but not liquidy. Take out and let sit for 10 minutes, while you finish up your other parts of dinner and serve.

Supper tonight???

One fresh large chicken breast.

One jar of spagetti sauce.

Put it in the crockpot and cook on hi for 4 hours or low for 8 hours. Serve with spagetti or if you hate boiling spagetti like I do, just serve with a small baked potato.

This sounds delicious, but not very low calorie/low carb/low fat - do you know the stats?

Good god no. I hate to even imagine the calorie count on that bad boy. I will say my recipes are good to eat, but not necessarily good for you....LOL

      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.
