I might get some plain non fat not Greek yoghurt (so it's runny) to have a go at making a dressing like that.

insta_adventurer 1,046 Posted March 7, 2019 The dressing was 1.25 cups plain whole milk Greek yogurt, two table spoons of mayo, a tablespoon of apple cider vinegar, a teaspoon of sugar (could probably use a sugar replacement, but I didn’t because it was so little), a teaspoon of salt, pepper, a little garlic powder, a teaspoon of rosemary, like 2 table spoons of tarragon, and a dash of tumeric. I didn’t have dill weed so I used tarragon in the dressing. Really wished I had dill weed! 3 clsumrall, ummyasmin and GreenTealael reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
froufrou 678 Posted March 7, 2019 I have a recipe request for some kind of 'icing' for cake. My birthday is coming up and I have found a cake mix that is low sugar and high Protein, but I'd like to find something to top it with that isn't full of sugar. I can't have Gelatin, that's the only thing. If anyone has any ideas, that would be wonderful. 1 GreenTealael reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I also just realised I could probably use lite coolwhip! I am basically going to make one cupcake... it's to deter me from ordering anything from the restaurant and to have something to stick a candle in hahaha. I am interested in seeing how much I can eat of it... I'll have to do a before and after! 3 GreenTealael, clsumrall and Orchids&Dragons reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SingingEagle 89 Posted March 9, 2019 So I always just look at everyone’s yummy foods. I never post because I am just so basic LOL and a creature of habit and meal prep for the most part. But today I thought what the heck I will let you see my mundane food lunch I did not photograph. It was chicken casserole. I always use a small dessert plate and one of the pics shows a napkin beside it so you can see it’s not as big as it looks. 3 clsumrall, GreenTealael and DaisyChainOz reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nic C 46 Posted March 9, 2019 I had RNY in late January and have been able to eat regular food again for about a month. I rarely eat out anymore so I'm always surprised at how large the portions are. This was the Fit Fare veggie skillet from Denny's. 390 cals for the entire meal and kind of carb heavy due to the potatoes but this will last me for a few days. I'll add some grilled chicken during later meals for more Protein.
