Pizza Clouds - Light as a feather & pure protein
Light as a cloud with the flavors of pizza. Divine! Amazing... tomato, parmesan, Italian herbs and even pepperoni.
Budget Meals for Losing Weight, Part 2
Rich or poor, we still have to put supper on the table. These are from my budget files for times when I need to stretch too few dollars into some big meals.
Mexican Seafood Cocktail
This version of the favorite Shrimp Cocktail bathes the shrimp or crab in a creamy and slightly smoky chipotle sauce.
Sliced Steak & Greek Salad
The trick is to slice and share a more expensive filet mignon steak, rather than serve a whole 'one per person'. Tender filet is easy to eat and delicious.
Tuna Salad Bowl - Blue Plate Special when it's too hot to cook!
Salads are really not a recipe as they are just a plated combination of flavors. A throwback diner classic.
Bariatric Tuna Sub
I love tuna sandwiches but what do you do if you do not eat bread? Romaine Lettuce for the win!
'Better than Burger' Kebabs
Our local Fresh Market has a weekly special for super nice ground chuck at just $3.99 a pound and I like making something a ‘different’ than plain ole burgers or meat loaf. These are a sort of ‘meatloaf on a stick’ that I can cook in minutes using my grill pan.
Cauliflower Crust Pizza. Super good!
A good tasting dish in its own right. Calling it pizza does not make it so, but this 'Pizza' flavored round is fresh, mild and has a cheesy goodness with none of the qualities for which cauliflower is disliked. I think you will like it if you don't go at it thinking you have found no carb pizza. Have reasonable expectations and you will love it!
Sheet Pan Meal: Eggplant Pizza Rounds
This vegetable dish hits the spot. It's a great summer lunch or a light supper with a salad. Your post op meals DO NOT NEED TO BE ALL MEAT... lighten up and have some vegetables!
Five Minute Shrimp Skewers
When I am running late for supper with nothing really planned, I stop for a half pound of large shrimp and a few salad ingredients. I can have this beautiful plate of food on the table in five minutes!
Hungarian Beef Stew... Melt in Your Mouth!
Super tender... you can mash the beef cubes with a fork. Perfect for bariatric eating. I serve with a side dish of pan roasted parsnips & carrots - boil peeled vegetables until tender and finish to golden in olive oil salt and pepper. Delicious.
Tender Steak Salad
Tender Steak Salad is filling and full of protein - part of the meal plan for our Inspire Diet program - delicious Bariatric Eating
