Just a repeat of the recipe I posted the other day.

My mom hates mushrooms, so I've been thinking of other veggies to put in it.

2 large shallots, chopped or minced

Saute them in 1 tbsp of EVOO till turning brown

Add 8oz of fresh chopped mushrooms

Let them cook until most Water evaporates from it..10-15m

Put 8z of Mascarpone cheese (omg..) in a bowl, add the mushrooms.

The cheese melts like butter, so mix until its nice and melted.

It's like a wonderful rich alfredo sauce with mushrooms in it.

Put it over Pasta, or eat by itself.

When I figure out another veggie to try in it, I'll let you know how it works out!

Sounds like a good sauce to put over anything!... broccolli and asparagus come to mind. Cauliflower is a good sub for Pasta.

I've always heard that mascarpone cheese is delish and have never tried it! maybe i'll run over to allrecipes.com and search for recipes using that ingredient.

I'm not into Pasta anyway, so hah hah I like it just by itself. But, it would be WONDERFUL on broccoli or asparagus.. in fact next time I'm buying it, I'm going to put it on asparagus.. fresh steamed.. omg.. I'm hungry now. Mascarpone is my new fav. anything. Hehe.

First time I've made salmon at home and I not only liked it, I looooved it!!

The place I got the recipe from, the reviews said it's a good way to cover up not-so-fresh fish, and gets rid of fishy taste, etc.. I have to agree. The salmon I get at Publix, even though it's in the 'fresh meats' area, is always a little fishy.

For 2 salmon filets, I reduced amount of sauce--to recipe below--, but it still ended up being about 1/3c extra--which you could keep for tuna salad or something later.

2/3c mayo (lite is ok)

1/4c of mustard (I used dijon)

1/2 tsp thyme

1/2 tsp oregeno

1/2 tsp basil (I don't like basil so I just added a dash)

1/2 tsp garlic powder

1 tsp of dill

---

Wash & pat dry the salmon, sprinkle with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Then I squeeze lemon juice on mine. Mix together all ingredients above, cover the salmon with sauce on a baking sheet. Bake uncovered.

Bake @ 375, for 10m for every 1".

YUM.

      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.
