Lets see if I can remember this from when I use to sort of cook;

2 cans of VegAll veggies

1 can of cream of chicken Soup, unduluted

1 can of chicken chopped up, (optional)

2 Pillsbury pie crusts, the kind that unfolds.

Unfold one of the crust, place in bottom of pie pan, combine other ingredients in a bowl, then spread into the crust, top with the remaining crust and cook on 350 until the crust is done and the inside is warm, about 20-30 minutes. Your family will think you've slaved all day for this pot pie.

Jiffy dumplings:

1-2 cans of cream of chicken soup,

1-can chopped chicken-optional

1-can refrigerator biscuits

Put the soup and chicken into a pot, bring to low boil. Take biscuits and split in half, then roll flat, then drop into the low boil. Cook until they float to the top, sprinkle with some cheese and serve.

Chilli

Brown and crumble turkey burger meat (no oil)

Add a can of healthy request tomatoe herb Soup

Add two cans stewed diced tomatoes

Add two cans Low sodium red kidney Beans

Add one can low sodium black Beans

Add one can corn

Cook till hot

Also if you HUGE on flavor (we's simple folk) you can add some Chilli flavoring packet to the turkey burger.

This takes like 20 minutes max.

10 minutes if you brown all your turkey burger at once and store it in the freezer in single serving bags like I do.

Well that makes alot.. I have alot of people in my family. You can reduce it of course and omit the corn.. WE love corn in ours.

Its the greasy hamburger that makes chilli so fattning..

There is also fat free corn bread on the market..

And low carb cornbread as well...

And of course the smart butter for your muffin..

Its so good, its like the real thing.

I have a recipe to share...

Southwest chicken

In 2 Tbs. olive oil brown 4-6 skinless chicken breasts cut in pieces, sprinkle with plenty of cummin,

continue to simmer for 10-to 15 min. then add one jar of chunky salsa (med or hot)

simmer chicken in salsa for 30-40 minutes or until done to your taste.

Remove chicken pcs, leaving as much salsa in the pan as possible.

Add 1/2 to one container lowfat or nonfat sour cream to salsa to make a creamy sauce.

Heat on med until hot and put over chicken.

I like to serve this dish with spanish rice and refried Beans.< /p>

chicken & Creamy Cornbread

Place your chicken pices in a dish or multiple dishes (however many you need). Sprinkle with your favorite herbs. I use - Rosemary, Parsley, Basil, and Thyme. Place in oven on 400. Check at 1 hour. You may need to cut one piece open to see if it needs to bake longer.

Use Jiffy mix cornmeal mix and make according to package instructions. Mix in one small can of creamed corn and place in a small glass baking dish. Bake according to instructions on Jiffy box. May need to bake a bit longer due to cream corn.

Bon Apetit!

      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.
