Recommended Posts

Well it may not be the healthiest but I get the collards and peas in the bags that are frozen

Dump them in a sauce pan on low to med heat add enough Water to cover them

I had a couple of bacon strips to the pot and a tablespoon of bacon grease

I use pepper and there is a new seasoning called southern soul food and add to both pots

Let slow cook for an hour letting some water evaporate

Also I chop up some onions into the pot on both

Salmon patties

I get a can of chicken of the sea pink salmon

I squish it up with my hands getting the round bones out

I add some chopped green onions to it

I also put pepper and soul food seasoning in it to

I add 1 egg and squish it all together

I use about 1/2 a cup of bread or cracker crumbs whatever you have and squish it up

Then I get frying pan and fill it about a 1/4 up with EVO and place on low to med heat

Then I use both a 1/4 cup flour and 1/2 cup corn meal mix it together

Make small round balls and flatten out a little dip in flour mixture and fry. About 6 mins on each side

Thanks still sounds good , I def substitute the bacon grease and what is EVO? SOUNDS DELICIOUS

Just quick cooking grits made with skim instead of Water (for protein). Then I threw in a few handfuls of cheddar and stirred in maybe 1/2 cup of LF cottage cheese (for protein). That's added to the entire pot' date=' mind you. Also added garlic powder and salt. I served myself a little bowl. I'm 10 days out and just started on puréed yesterday. It's savory, which is a nice change from the sweetness of yogurt, Protein Shakes, cream of wheat, etc. The only caveat is that it makes me really thirsty, so it's hard to wait to drink water.[/quote']

Thanks

EVO extra virgin oil, yes I don't always put in bacon grease when it's just for me. But had the family over so I had to make it the way my daddy did.

Cook a chicken in the crockpot with 2 cans of diced tomatoes, a container of black bean and corn salsa, onions and jalapeño peppers on low. I cook it until I can break it with a spoon ( tender) then I just scoop a spoon of chicken along with the Tomato salsa sauce on a plate with refried bean and top it with salsa. I mush it all together tho because I'm still on soft foods. It makes me feel like I'm eating some tasty yet bad for you Mexican food. You can also top it with shredded cheddar if you like. Puts me in the mind of loaded nachos without the nacho part.

      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.
