Awesome Recipes from the nutritionist

[urwhatueat 0]

I have several recipes that are healthy and taste great!

The first one is your basic chili. I use ground turkey meat, but you can use regular. Ground turkey is better for you and doesn't taste that much different.

1 medium vidalla or sweet onion chopped

2 cans of red kidney Beans - drained

1 lb of cooked ground turkey

1 T of chili powder - make it mild or hot - your choice

1 can of diced tomatoes - you can add pepper or chilis if you like

1 cup of Water

mix all together and top with some cheese. Great protein!

============================================

Tex Mex Meatloaf

(again I use ground turkey, but you can make it beef)

1 1/2 lbs of ground turkey

3/4 cup uncooked oatmeal

1 egg

2 T onion flakes or you can use fresh chopped onions

2 t chili powder (make it mild or hot)

1/4 cup ketchup

Mix all ingredients together except for the ketchup.

Put in pan.

Bake 1 hour and 15 minutes at 350 degrees.

Top with ketchup and bake another 10 minutes.

Cut into small slices so it last longer and your body thinks it is eating more when you really aren't.

I'm finding mushies to be a tough one because we all have different food listed in the "mushy" phase. I see that some foods that people are eating in 'mushy" is in my 'soft food" phase.

Put the meatloaf and chili in a blender1 :smile2:

Just kidding. Actually the meatloaf and chili can be used during the mushy phase. I know in the beginning you always hear about people throwing up because they eat something that wasn't on the list, but I have found that when you chew up the food (not counting any meat) it goes down pretty good and I have been banded since 11/21.

There is always french fries - small amount only though
