Topic: RE: Instant pot Egg bites

I tried them at Starbucks and didn't really like the texture. I have an IP and even bought the egg mold, but I'm reluctant to try it. OK you've convinced me - I'll try them. Which recipe did you follow?

Topic: Instant pot Egg bites
Has anyone tried these?

HOLY COW. A morning game changer! 4 eggs, cream cheese, cottage cheese, regular cheese, bacon. put in the instant pot and bam! Lots of protein, little to no carbs. They taste like the egg bites from Starbucks.

I had the molds for 2 years, but finally broke down and made them. I’ve now made them 3 days in a row...lol.

Topic: Vitamin and mineral blood tests: LabCorp vs. Mayo

My health care provider switched from using Mayo to LabCorp for the blood tests. Does anyone here have any knowledge about the comparative accuracy of these two companies? If so I would appreciate your sharing it with me.

Yup, I felt I could tell when I was ready too.You probably are. Just remember the portions will be really small, and certain foods don't digest well for some people. In my case, steak was no issue and I ate it during the purée phase. Chicken didn't go down no matter what for about 6 months.

I've decided I'm going to purée the heck out of some ground beef add some spices cover it with whipped cauliflower and bake it. Kinda like a weird Shepard's Pie.

Or instead puréed chicken liver. Yummo

I'll be starting 5 days early but I really believe I'm ready. If I have any discomfort I just won't fini**** and go back to full liquids.

I started eating very soft foods after 4 or 5 days. The best meal I ever had was around day 4 whi*****luded some liquidy mashed potatoes with strong chicken broth instead of gravy. The taste was stellar. I'm not suggesting going crazy but your ideas above for whipped veggies and brothes should be fair game about now.

I'm not. I made bone broth and I add some of the fat to my broths. Like this evening I used chicken bone broth, organic Chicken Bone Broth Protein Powder, a little whipping cream, dill, pat of butter, some liquid smoke and a little Himalayan salt.

But there are only so many soup broths that I can come up with. I've done a curry with coconut cream, a creamy tomato and a mushroom. I soaked some dried mushrooms in the broth and then strained them.

I just really, really want some meat. :)

Only one more week. Yay.

I'm doing low carb. Definitely not low fat. I used non fat milk for one day as that what it states per my dietician but to heck with that.
