I also make the "casserole" but I've always considered it a "Crustless Quiche". So many ways to go with this dish. If I'm going for a Southwest flavor, I add black Beans, corn, red peppers, jalapenos, onions. Or, if I feel like healthy choices, I'll add spinach, turkey sausage(or not) red bell peppers, mushrooms etc.

Interesting way to cook eggs. I may try that. Here in Denver, boiling temp is closer to 180 so not sure if it works the same? And the tip to crack the egg? Gotta try that.

You know, that's a great point! Try it out and let me know if it works the same! If it doesn't, I'll adjust the directions on the web site for it! :)

That is the way we do eggs at our house. The abrupt change from hot to cold actualy shocks that filmy membrane under the shell so that it releases from the whites, and you can peel it easy and pretty. Now, what if you got busy and forgot to come back to your eggs? Just put them back into the some hot Water for a couple of minutes, and the same thing happens by reverse process, and the shells will release.

I like making egg frittatas. You can put anything in them you want, put in a muffin pan and bake until slightly firm. Makes a great snack.< /p>

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      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.
