Meals for one

[Kami63 215]

I will be 3 weeks post op on Tuesday. I have been on liquids since surgery and can advance to soft solids on Tuesday. That means for Proteins i can have eggs, soft fish and ground meats. My husband is on his own diet and only drinks shakes for dinner. have been trying to wrap my brain around cooking for one. Then it came to me. I remembered seeing an egg pan somewhere and I thought it would be perfect for any portions of eggs or ground meats that I would be making for myself. Here is the link if anyone else is interested. Any one else used the egg pan? And did it help you not over portion your food?

I also got a small turner as well.

You'll probably only eat part of an egg for quite a while. This will be a good time to re-learn something....throw left overs away that aren't good re-heated. Throwing half an egg away was difficult at first, but not now. I threw perfectly good pizza away a month ago. Three pieces of home made that I did NOT want in the frig....so out it went. Very liberating!

I thought about getting a little egg pan but it doesn't bother me to use the big fry pan. It would be nicer to wash though!

Anyhooo.....my Surgeons instructions suggested something I really like. When you make food that is more then one or two servings freeze the rest in an ice cube tray. So far I have done this with sauces and gravies. After they are solid, pop them out into a freezer bag, then you aren't wasting most of a jar of spaghetti sauce or whatever.

How cute!

It really is perfect for one egg! And small amounts of anything you want to cook with easy cleanup

I have seen little ramekins used to bake eggs with spinache veggies etc. looked good.
