My parents like to make caprese tomatoes. It's a big Slice of Tomato with a slice of buffalo mozzarella on top. Then drizzled with balsamic and a little olive oil and fresh basil. I ate a Slice of the cheese with a little balsamic on top. It was amazing. Wish I could eat the tomato too!

Does anyone have a good chili recipe? I'm liking chili a lot but I don't really like to eat canned food - too much crap added in! I'm more of a homemade person but I've never made chili before.

I make mine with stewed tomatoes, black Beans, kidney bean and sometimes even ranch style beans, ground turkey, chili powder and onions. I like jalapeños in mine, my parent like a can of rotel. It always turns out good! I use one can of each except the tomatoes I usually use two small or one large but I like a lot of tomatoes.

You're not allowed tomatoes yet? We had surgery the same day and I've been allowed tomatoes for quite some time now. Actually, I have an ulcer in my mouth because I've been eating them like crazy. Lol

here's a bizarre question.. has any one eaten anything there not supposed to have and instead of swallowing it, spit it out? you know just chew it up for the flavor, then spit it out when cravings hit?

Sadly, I've done that a few times. First was a French fry. But I've done it a couple times since.

Making some roasted jalapeños stuffed with fat free cream cheese, chive and onion, topped with a little crunchy bacon. The bacon is lean but it's my little cheat I was out of turkey bacon so hopefully it will be fine! Won't even be eating half a slice anyway! I love spicy food and it sits well with me I'm also cooking some tilapia blackened ahead of time for the week.

Yep. Mine was pizza. I wanted a big bite, not a tiny one to chew and chew. So I took. Big ass bite, chewed & spit.

No raw veggies yet, and tomatoes are very acidic (as I'm sure you know:)) so they recommend against them. Plus, I had a stricture so I'm behind on the eating curve!!

I've done it before but they say you can still get in some of the grease or fat or salt depending on what you're chewing. I still do it though sometimes just because I cook for my family and I gotta make sure it tastes right
