melted cheese! What can I do with it!



Recommended Posts

I'm so mad! I went to costco and brought an assortment of cheses in a tray.

Gouda, cheddar, Swiss and Havarti. It was all sliced and nice.

Well for some reason something went wrong and most of it is melted together. I can still separate the different types, but what do I do with it!!!

Can you suggest any not to fattening recipes.

Thanks

I would have to chuck it... Melted cheese is impossible for me to swallow. I don't allow myself cheese anymore. Sorry you got a tainted tray.

Maybe you could fondue? Still fattening though, sorry.

cheese Crisps and Mock "Goldfish" Crackers Recipe courtesy George Stella

Recipe Summary

Difficulty: Easy

Prep Time: 10 minutes

Cook Time: 7 minutes

Yield: 4 servings

User Rating: 4_stars.gif

Try these cheese crisps as a great dip for low-carb salsa, and enjoy the Mock "Goldfish" Crackers as an anytime snack, great for the grab and go!

2 slices American cheese (not "cheese food")

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/8 teaspoon chili powder

1/8 teaspoon garlic powder

2 ounces deli-sliced Colby-Jack cheese

Low-carb salsa, as needed

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.

Stack the slices of American cheese and cut it into 16 small squares. Separate the pieces, and transfer them to a small bowl. Add the salt, chili powder, and garlic powder toss to combine. Arrange the 32 cheese pieces in 4 rows of 8, on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet, leaving as much space in between each as possible.

Stack the Colby-Jack slices and cut them into about 24 small pieces. Arrange them on another parchment paper-lined baking sheet in 4 rows of 6—without any seasonings.

Bake both until well-browned and crispy, about 7 and 7 1/2 minutes. If undercooked, they'll be soggy, so don't be afraid to check them and put them back in for more time, if needed. Cool the crisps and crackers completely before serving—as they cool, they'll crisp up. Store on the counter in an airtight container for a few days.

Here is the recipe guess you could try it with some of the cheese to see if it works.

If you feel like it should not have been all melted together, then take it back...I used to work at costco and they have a money back guarantee for any reason...If not money back, maybe a replacement platter...Just an idea...Windy

If its gotten hot enough to melt together there's no way I'd eat it. I'd chuck it out, its not safe to eat.

You can eat cheese? I am jealous! I love cheese, but since having my first fill, I have found I cannot eat any kind of cheese, melted, whole, none.

Shread it and then put it in small sandwich size baggies and freeze it. You can use it anytime you need some shreaded cheese.< /span>

      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.
