Topic: Looking for a decadent tasting fat free hot sandwich recipe...

I rarely eat sandwiches post op because the fat free Greek yogurt /horseradish mustard dressing I use is BORING and without it ..

cold cuts and fat free melted American cheese just don?t get me excited.

I also rarely eat more than a bit of the bread ( which is always sourdough fresh and artisanal).

The argument for coming up with a delicious sandwich recipe is how convenient popular and lowfat cold cuts are . A ten minute great tasting healthy and hot sandwich would be a great addition to a repertoire of post bariatric healthy recipes.

So im thinking about incorporating very tasty veggies for the needed moisture like I do in my normal recipes -

Yesterday I experimented with a layer of leftover green bean casserole , lean roast beef and a bit of lean pastrami. ( with my usual Greek yogurt /mustard spread on the bread ) It was actually quite good and high protein, fat free and healthy except that the bread-spread was predictably boring.

Today i want to improve it in the direction of a Philly cheese steak... minus the fat of course . Ideas ?

What im really trying to come up with is something iconic and unforgettable tasting - like the Reuben/Big Mac used thousand island dressing and saurkraut or a fresh tomato slice as the vegetable ingredient and necessary moisture .

Topic: RE: High Protein Tuna Noodle Casserole

The chickpea pasta sounds super interesting.

Before surgery I kind of liked tuna casserole ... although a similar one ( Southern chicken and dumplings ) worked better post op (the fishy taste of tuna could sometimes make want to puke ( sorry) .)

Tuna still does that to me .. funny how our tastes change with surgery. I always enjoyed tuna salad pre op - in the last eight years post op I've tried it a handful of times and it never stayed put successfully for me.

I do love cream of mushroom ( i prefer my own homemade fat free version though) as flavorful a food staple and am experimenting Using it as a base for more bariatric friendly non-fattening but decadent tasting recipes.

Topic: New savory Mayo substitute for sandwiches and more ?

Ive been in love with ALDIS very inexpensive ( one -ninety -nine?) baby green bean, mushroom sauce and onio topping pre made casserole. I eat and enjoy it every stage from barely cooked to 4 times heated ... which is what i have now.

The dish is still super tasty, high fiber and im thinking about including as the "sauce" between cold cuts toast and mustard in a heated sandwich or panini.

Ill tell you how it tastes after I've made it ;)
