Recommended Posts

Chobani Kitchen



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.

If you like ranch dressing mix the powder hidden valley packet in non fat plain Greek yogurt and you have ranch dressing! My nutritionist told me about it and it taste wonderful!!

I love that idea! I keep a big container of the powder around that I get from Sams! I love the flavor of the dressing but knew after surgery their was no way I could have it lol. Thanks for the post

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:

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
