Saw this Chobani Greek Yogurt Conversion Chart for use in replacing butter, mayo, oil, etc. in recipes. I plan to try it and wanted to share with y'all.

I got the recipe from the web. 3 cups Greek yogurt, 1 large pkg sugar-free vanilla pudding, 1 tsp vanilla extract. You can add extra Splenda to taste. I tripled this for my 2 qt Krups.

I tell ya who has some GREAT recipes is Bobby Dean, Son of Paula Dean!!(idk why I need to tell anyone who he is bc most know since we're all foodies LOL)

He has a new show, he's living in New York and has changed to a much healthier eating lifestyle!

If you want the decadent food of Paula Dean without all the fats and calories then check out Bobbies show/website bc basically on the show he cooks 3 things, all his moms recipes and he usually cuts the fats and calories in half or even more while keeping the taste!

I haven't tried anything yet but i will be after surgery I'm sure.

Y'all let me know If you try anything!

I posted this a few weeks ago, but copied it to (hopefully) respond to your question:

I found that I needed to have my grocery shopping list easily available AS WELL AS keep the recipes new, exciting and flavorful. I joined the FREE online site: Allrecipes.com

(They also offer a pay/subscriber membership but I haven't found the need for it).

After creating my account, I added recipes to my RECIPE BOX. You can add recipes from various websites and personalize/input your own recipes. I am now able to create shopping lists easily from these programs and access them from my smartphone via the app "Chef Tap" which links to the Allrecpies.com site.

I have found many recipes from these sites:

      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.
