Creamy Spinach Chicken Salad



Recommended Posts

The spinach dip is definitely going on my grocery list. I love the stuff and I already have the canned chicken in my pantry. This will be great to take to work for lunch. My lunch is usually so boring. tuna 2 or 3 times a week or turkey and ham with cheese.

Have you tried some of the whole grain crackers like Kashi or wheat things (8 of them are around 8-10 carbs if I remember correctly). I still like a little crunch once in awhile. This spinach/chicken dip would be great on them.

Thanks for the idea Georgia Girl.

Hey nip, I have tried the Kashi Fire Roasted Vegetable ones and they are really good. I love those, they are very good. Hope you enjoy!

Hubby (also banded) takes the Tostido Queso / Mixes a drained can of Rotele / Shredded chicken & Warms it in the crockpot. This is his wkend staple most of the time - I told him about the creamy spinach and his eye widened :). I see this in his future - FAST!!

Yum! The queso dip is in my top 10 foods- I was wondering what I could make with it! Thanks for the tip!

Thanks for a great recipe! I tried this today as a celery filling. I put the spinach/chicken salad in a larger tube pastry bag and filled the cleaned celery. So yummy!!

Great idea! Does celery go down pretty well for you? I have not tried it raw since being banded because it's a little stringy and I wasn't sure how it would go down.

I've tried it, but only after de-ribbing it. Then it does fine. Otherwise, I have to cut it up in VERY small pieces or I'm afraid it will cause problems.

Sadly, my DH hates spinach, so he won't eat it. On the upside of that, MORE FOR ME! LOL!

i made the mistake of showing DH the dip... he was droooling ... guess i need to stock up. i found it in Super Target.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
