Another easy canned meat recipe



Recommended Posts

Ok so.. chicken & tuna I make the normal salad (Miracle whip, relish).

Canned turkey + 1tbsp of cranberry sauce- YUM!

Now I finally tried canned ham. I was going to make a salad, but felt like doing an old recipe of my moms. She us to serve ham steak with applesauce.

So, I had 1/2 can of canned ham, cooked it in a frying pan so it had nice brown marks on it, then mixed it with 1tbsp of applesauce.

YUM YUM!!

I could only get 2 teeny tiny bites to go down, but this is now one of my favorite recipes in my 'easy to make' arsenal. :clap2:

I too like easy to make, with high Protein. I recently bought these new easier than anything meals that Hormel makes. They have some with chicken, pot roast, and turkey. I especially like the chicken with mashed potatoes and gravy. The calories are low for a complete meal, the Protein pretty high, and they're very cheap. I think they're called Compleat meals. They don't require refrigeration and take 1.5 minutes to microwave. Try it, you might like it. My Daughter says they smell like cat food, but they do taste good. She told me that they don't really taste good, but that I probably think they do because I don't eat much anymore.

I'm going to try your canned ham. Sounds yummmmmmmmmy!

Sue- Those hormel meals are the ones I previously said taste worse than dogfood. You're the first person I've heard say they like them!!

I tried the turkey and chicken ones, and literally.. I'd rather have eaten my cats canned food.

The canned ham on the other hand.. smells horrid, looks horrid.. tastes wonderful (I've found this to be true on all canned meats).

      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.
