@sillykitty Thank you for that link, I will be making a version of that Soup once I buy some wild rice. I forwarded the recipe to my oldest son, we both love wild rice Soup.

btw, one ingredient I have found that makes a really subtle, but big difference in creamy Soups is dry white vermouth.

Instacart has a swap agreement, but not for a better deal. I gave the ok for the swap, I didn’t look at the nutritional information when I did. I’m one of those people who refuses to shop at Walmart because they don’t provide benefits or decent pay. (Damn liberal) 😂

But I shop on Amazon, so I’m pretty much a hypocrite!

I'm also a damn liberal, but my cheapness outweighs my principles 😂

Whenever I travel to cities I try to eat the local specialties. I ate a lot of chicken & wild rice Soup and walleye in Minneapolis :). I tried to survey my associates in each city for the "best" version. Lunds & Byerly was almost the universal answer for chicken & wild rice Soup.< /span>




So this is the recipe I used. I deviated by leaving out the swiss chard & thickening it with flour

Have you tried Walmart grocery pick up? It's pretty nice they just put it in you trunk for you. For the substitutions, you can choose to reject them, and they'll take them off when you arrive. Sometimes the substitutions are a win, for example I ordered 100 pk of Splenda, and they subbed w a 200 pk, and charged the 100 pk price.


Thanks for this recipe @sillykitty. I used to travel to Minneapolis a lot and miss this soup. Will be making it myself now!

Breakfast with one egg omelette this morning with spinach, onion, Swiss cheese and lean ham cubes. Sauté lean low salt ham cubes in just a splash of real maple Syrup. Then, I use the cubes for navy bean Soup, a chef salad and sunny side eggs for extra flavor. Just a few bites satisfy.

Barbacoa made with Frontera Grill marinade. I piled it on 7 tortilla chips and it was amazing.

I apologize for the extreme close up, it is my attempt at hiding my messy plate.

My husband smoked a chuck roast and I took it from there.

My husband is quite the carnivore. He usually smokes brisket but couldn’t find any, then he ran across recipes for Chuck roast and I like it better, however, I don’t love smoked beef in general. I can’t eat a lot of it because it’s so high in fat and calorIes. I almost always make something like this or carnitas with the smoked meat, that way 3-4 oz goes a long way.

My favorite thing he smokes is pork loin, it never disappoints, chicken is ok, I prefer that baked.

He bought this about a year ago, he doesn’t mess around lol.

      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.
