Baked Rutabaga Fries

PreHeat Oven to 425

1/4 Rutabaga

1 teaspoons olive oil

1 Tbl Flavor God Garlic Lovers

OR

Garlic powder to taste

Onion powder to taste

Sea Salt to taste

This recipe is modified from http://allrecipes.com/recipe/230404/rutabaga-oven-fries/

Cut the rutabaga into quarters. If you have a french fry cutter, this is much easier, you can just cut it in there. If not then cut into even fry size pieces. Put the rutabaga in a bowl, add olive oil, and seasonings. Toss until evenly coated. Place on aluminum foil on baking tray, and put in oven. Bake 25 minutes, but keep an eye on them, depending on the seasoning they can get a little dark.

The rutabaga I purchased was about a little under a pound. Depending on the size of the rutabaga the carbs are going to vary. I weighed my sections on my scale, My 1/4 was 3.5 oz or 99 grams. Which works out to about 8 carbs, 2 of which are Fiber for about 6 net carbs, and around 1 gram of Protein.

I am going to try these with just coconut oil spray later on in the week and see if they brown as well.

I have seen these recipes online for a while but never tried them. They are delicious. They have a slight sweet taste, but other than that, they are so close to fries, you will be surprised.

I've never tasted a rutabaga. I did however look up this seasoning which I've never heard of. Great! Thanks! And these look like real fries.

The flavor god seasoning can seem expensive, but it is super high quality and flavorful, the containers are also very large. The lemon garlic is great, and the garlic is great also. The everything is okay but I don't like the everything spicy.

      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.
