Vegetarian Muffin-Tray Lasagna



Recommended Posts

These are amazing! And easy! They come out looking tidy and are a favorite of the whole family. Great for kid's packed lunches as well!

Ingredients:

Wonton wrappers (typically sold next to the tofu)
Boca vegetarian "meat" crumbles
LF ricotta
LF mozzarella
Marinara (I like Rao's)
1 egg
Parmesan
Spray for muffin tray cups

Steps:
(1) Preheat oven to 350 & spray each cupcake/muffin tray cup including the sides
(2) Lay 1 wonton wrapper in each cup
(3) Microwave a small bowl of boca crumbles about a minute
(4) stir the crumbles into the marinara (1/4 to 1/2 jar)
(5) In a bowl combine half a container of LF ricotta with one egg and a small handful of mozz
(6) layer the Tomato sauce and the ricotta mix into the cups (I go sauce, ricotta, sauce) leaving enough room for cheese topping
(7) Top each cup with a yummy layer of mozz and parmesan
(8) Cook for 20 minutes and allow 5 minutes to cool before taking them out of the tray

I've discovered that you can vary this recipe using *TACO* ingredients-- just pre-bake the wonton cup for 5 minutes on its own so that it ends up more crispy and less noodle-y. You can mix taco seasoning into the veggie meat and use salsa instead of marinara. OPTIONAL: Try variations and additions (cook in fajita vegetables; black beans; onions; top with sour cream, avocado, etc.) at the end.

I have also made "CHEESEBURGER" variety-- crisped wontons + veggie burger, chopped sugar-free bread-and-butter pickle chips, mustard, cheddar cheese. Optionally, dip in your favorite condiments/special sauce.

I also made wonton cups filled with Indian food leftovers-- ricotta/egg custard layered with saag paneer, for example.

You can get super creative! If the filling is some combination of protein/cheese + something to keep it moist, I don't see how you could go wrong.

      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.
