I agree - I love making ravioli now - don't think I could buy them again. I love how delicate they seem by using the wonton wrappers.

delicate is a great word to describe the wrappers.

i didn't have a chance until wed to make the turkey/cranberry ravioli and the combination (i modified some towards yours) was very tasty - the little bit of cranberry goes a LONG way. my freezer has a second meals worth..LOL

the wrappers can be modified to any type of ravioli - going to start experimenting...

Renee - I totally know what you mean about ice cream - there are times when there is no problem and others where the slightest bite just won't go down - go figure and sometimes I know it is probably a good thing.

San Diego mom,

here is the recp. kcmagu and i have been playing around with:

Turkey and Cranberry Ravioli Recipe : Giada De Laurentiis : food Network

the ravioli part is wonton wrappers. they are very easy to work with and much lighter than regular Pasta.

i think you can make any type of ravioli w/these~

      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.
