Meatballs

[sarahbethemails 68]

I'm going to a party next weekend and I had my surgery 10/7 so I was wondering if meatballs are soft in sauce am I allowed them in the soft stage??

Also eggplant parm?? Wasn't sure about that either since its soft

I don't know if tolerances are different with by pass because I had sleeve but for me I can't eat meatballs still and I was sleeved almost a month ago. Also most meatballs have a good amount of breadcrumbs in them so you may want to be careful with the carbs because it may cause dumping with the bypass.

Do you make your own meatballs or do you eat them from like subway? I rather try it out first and I'm not too great at making them lol

I would absolutely make my own and give it a try. Ground beef can be tricky in those first few months following bypass. Sometimes depending on the meatball, I still struggle. They need to be pretty soft or they hurt my chest.

I have tried both ways and just can't eat them right now.

• 1 pound ground beef

1 pound ground pork½ cup almond flour½ cup grated Parmesan cheese⅓ cup Water1 teaspoon dried parsley flakes¾ teaspoon garlic powder¾ teaspoon salt½ teaspoon dried oregano½ teaspoon onion powder¼ teaspoon fresh black pepper

I used the above recipe two nights ago and it was great! I did use ground beef but ground turkey would be an okay substitute. I froze the ones I wasn't intending on using right away.

I enjoyed them over some zoodles! It definitely satisfied any "Italian food" craving I may have had.

Awesome now zoodles are zucchini strings right did you bi those or were they hard

I can't have fried meatballs so now i bake them in the oven. Once they come out I blot them of any grease before I add them to my sauce. Yum

Eggplant I can't digest but meatballs are usually ok.
