*hangs head* I don't have one of these either.

You know, I had one for years and never used it. As we were moving 4 years ago, I put it out for the recycle bin. And didn't have one til the chaffle craze hit. Now I only have my new little Dash but will look for a big one in the thrift stores for $5 or $10 bucks. It's well worth it cuz these taste incredibly like crisp bread (toast) with crevices for "things" to sink in. If i was eating mayo these days, I'd go cray for these. But the avocado was perfect as are the nut butters or even cream cheese or cinnamon bun cream cheese, etc.

Here is a before picture of my egg bites. There is no after as I eat the two on my plate with some salsa. So yummy.

Only eggs, bacon bites, feta cheese and a mix of some cheese I needed to use. IMG_20191117_175512_665.thumb.jpg.bd45ac0b3cdc0f50e915ea92f667a420.jpg

Make a chaffle. So. DANG. Good! With avocado toast or with Peanut Butter smeared on it. So filling too!

That looks beautiful!!! Makes me want it for lunch!

I will now search for how to make a chaffle - is it on your recipe site, Fluffy? I'll also search on this thread...

I make my chaffle out of 1 egg and 1 cup of mild cheddar cheese. Mix together, divide in 2 and cook in chaffle Iron for 4min each. It makes 2 chaffles (19g Protein, 5g carbs, 1g sugar, 15g fat for 2 chaffles).

Last night’s Restaurant Menu Item/choice :

Keto Cobb Salad” : Romaine heart + cherry tomatoes + bacon + cheese crumble + cucumber + egg + 1/2 an avocado + grilled chicken + “Keto Green Goddess” dressing (which I am in love with now, btw)

...also shared a charcuterie board with my dinner companions, but forgot to take a pic of it...

Yeah. I tried it that way first but thought it was very eggy and just meh. I like my psylli version with the egg whites. Tastes very much like bread. Plus each chaffle is only 54 cals.

I dropped and broke mine after making 10248935016 Protein waffles 😂

I thought I'd go small this time so I *could* take it anywhere I go (endless travel-might need waffles 😔)

Here you go.

Divide the mozzarella shreds. Put half in the chaffle mixture and half of it is used to make the chaffle. Let me see if I can find her video. Here's her link to the method of preparation. You can do a youtube search and watch her demo the recipe.

@GreenTealael and it has no startches or any of the other stuff they put in.

So easy to make with those moldes. And you can put anything in them.

Yes, it is. It was the first time I tried them, so easy, so yummy. Black friday should have some amazing instant pot deals. Also, btw, It's instant pot, not instapot 😉 Although most people in the US thinks the brand name is Instapot.

The molds I used are these. https://www.amazon.com/s?k=instant+pot+egg+bites+silicone&crid=4B67JEENVEBD&sprefix=instant+pot+egg+%2Caps%2C224&ref=nb_sb_ss_i_3_16

There are so many options, just be aware that you get the right size. The first ones I got was too small.

You and a whole lot more. Even in the huge instant pot groups I'm in on Facebook, like 1 mil people, people call them instapot.

I seriously need to try this! This would be a great alternative for sandwiches! Love this thread, so many great ideas and inspiration 💜

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
