"Slider' foods that good for you- suggestions?



Recommended Posts

Hi all;

I am looking for slider foods that are actually good for us.

I love Hormel Chili with Beans- individual servings for 190 cal with 14 grms of Protein. Love 'em for lunch or munch. Nuke 'em and eat 'em.

What are your favorites?

OMG- My Mom came to visit me a few weeks ago and made this dish for me. It's great!

Slice an eggplant- very thin...

Lay out slices on a baking sheet sprayed w/ cooking spray...

Take a brush and apply VERY small amount of EVOO or Veggie Oil to the tops...

Bake until tender... (just about 10 minutes in a 350 degree oven)

While that's in the oven- Make a Marinara sauce...

(EVOO- Crushed Tomatoes- Garlic- Basil- salt & pepper)

In a square pan (or lasagna pan if you're making a lot)

Put small amt of sauce

Layer of Eggplant

Sauce

Eggplant etc...(should make 3 or 4 layers)

Sprinkle top with Parmigiana Cheese

Bake until browned (about 20 minutes)

It's "DIET"- because there is no Mozzarella or Ricotta or Breadcrumbs or Deep Frying!!! WooHooo!!!!!!!!!

There is a restaurant near me that makes a chicken "spread" that is the consistency of hummus. It is sooooo unbelievable. I also like Hormel firehouse chili with 2% mexican cheese sprinkled on top with a tablespoon of fat-free sour cream.....yummy! Great now I am hungry!

My band is probably a bit too tight -- I have trouble with solid foods most of the time.

I am losing weight pretty consistently so I don't want to loosen up my band. I'll get a bit of saline out when I hit goal.

Anyway that's why I'm asking about slider foods --i'm sick of all my choices- need some new ideas.

You gave me an idea-- put my chicken in my chopper and grind it up fine-- with some mayo-- that should work well. And hummus is a good idea.

I can eat crunchy stuff like nachos but nothing very soft like quesodillas or bread.< /p>

Thanks and success on your journey to all.

Sadie

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        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!
