What’s Your Best Secret Healthy Recipe?

[Alex Brecher 10,515]

It can be a drag if you have to cook for other people while you’re on your weight loss surgery diet. If your family refuses to “eat healthy,” you can easily find yourself making two different meals every night so you can have your healthy meal and they can eat what they like.

But at some point, you may be able to sneak something healthy past them. That makes it a lot easier because then you only have to make one meal. Plus, once you tell them it’s healthy, they may be more open to eating healthy foods in the future! Turkey chili comes to mind: most people can’t tell the difference between lean turkey and ground beef in chili. You might even be able to sneak soy crumbles into the dish! Cottage cheese oatmeal pancakes with fruit could be another winner.

If you can’t sneak healthy foods past them, you can try to save yourself some effort by serving a meal that serves both purposes: you can pick out the parts that are healthy, and they can eat the entire meal. For example, taco bars and make your own pizza bars let everyone pile on their own favorites, while you can stick to the lean Proteins and veggies you know are right for you.

So, what is your best recipe or meal idea that is healthy but that everyone will eat, even if they don’t like healthy meals?
