Protein cookie dough-it’s sooo good!!!



Recommended Posts

I used dark chocolate in mine to limit the sugar. And also used sugar free maple Syrup. My flour was carbalose flour. My Protein only has 3g sugar a serving and 110 calories, so this ended up being a great snack to leave in the fridge.

Cookie dough recipe
16oz container of cottage cheese
1/4 cup maple syrup
2 tsp vanilla

2 cups almond flour(or preferred flour)
1/2-2/3 cup Protein Powder of choice
1 cup chocolate chips

Blend the cottage cheese, syrup and vanilla till it looks like yogurt, then mix in the rest. Adjust to taste.

That is the plus, it fills the sweet tooth, but it's not bad.

Oh OK if you're just a few weeks out from your surgery then I would not recommend this recipe. Much better to prepare healthy food from scratch and for that to be the mainstay of your diet forever.

Next year and forever after definitely you can build this sort of stuff in as an occasional treat!

This is just cottage cheese and protein... so it's got all the things we need and nothing bad in it. It tastes good enough to eat with out adding chips, and there's a lot of yogurts that are worse for you.

Some processed stuff too though Suzi. I found it helpful to avoid those foods in the weeks and months after my op.

And sweet stuff was a real trigger early on - almost derailed me a few times.

Yeah totally agree too - some yoghurts will have more sugar and stuff in them whilst presenting themselves as healthy.

Wasn't dissing your recipe - as I said, it looks really fab. My comments were more for Kathy who seems to be early post surgery, and just to share my experience.

I am not a huge sweets person, I made it and just have it in the fridge for a little spoonful here and there. I did it with chocolate Protein, and i definitely was good skipping the chips.

      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.
