Salty Sweet Crunchy Snack -With Pecans



Recommended Posts

Took an old recipe for snack pecans and did it sugar free.

Mix together

2 egg whites

2 cups pecans

1 Tablespoon cinnamon

1 Tablespoon salt

1 cup Powdered Splenda (I used the one in big bag)

bake 350 20-30 min (I used aluminum foil sprayed with pam so it came off easy) until dry and crunchy.

Not sure of stats....but yummy and has protein!

I forgot to put - make sure you include the egg whites....they kind of "bake" the pecans together like a praline (minus the sugar...hahaha)

Thanks for this! I love these things, glad to have a version I can enjoy after sleeving!

Mmm, it would probably work with almonds too, right? I'm drooling at the idea of crunching on something again . . . hope the next 6 weeks fly by! :lol:

They DID turn out yummy, but you have to wait unti they are completely cool, in a tin and in the fridge over night before they get nice and crispy.....I think next time I will use Stevia instead of the brown sugar. The brown sugar made it super super sweet.

      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.
