Salmon in a pouch recipe



Recommended Posts

Hello

Tomorrow is my second week. I am starting soft foods. I bought salmon and tuna in pouches. Single serve which is what I liked about it.

Does anyone know how or what to mix with the salmon? mayo, mustard ( yellow or brown?) I have no idea how to eat this lol. The tuna is easy. Ill mix that with mayo but I can't have hard food yet like onions so I don't know what to mix with the salmon.

Thank you

during this stage i just ate it plain. before surgery i could have never done that but after surgery i was soooo hungry for some "real food" it tasted like a meal fit for a king! if you can have light mayo then an option would be to make the salmon just like you would make the tuna. i add various seasonings to mine. whatever strikes my mood. lemon pepper, old bay, season salt, dill... just try to not use too much salt because your body will want to hold on to anything at this point in your journey.

The pouched salmon is pretty interchangeable with tuna, just with a milder taste. It can be a little dry, so a bit of mayo helps. Steamed salmon is amazing, though, and much tastier than the pouched stuff.

I use mrs dash..and I have the bags that are microwavable.. you put the salmon in and shake your seasonings on it..and microwave according to the package... its very moist and delicious.

I think any kind of fish like that goes well with cottage cheese, but then ... I like cottage cheese. ;)

      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.
