I have a new favorite:  3 cups frozen raspberries, 2 cups plain fat free greek yogurt, truvia or other sweetener.  Puree in food processor then freeze in ice cream maker.  (If you use frozen raspberries this will almost freeze just in the food processor). 

This is the best ice cream/sorbet I have had in recent memory... and good hit of protein.  You can also add some unflavored protein powder.

Topic: RE: Turkey for one?

I've always eaten high fat/low carb.  It often has the best results for weight loss pre-op, too.

Here's the recipe I use. :)  It's super easy.  I scale it up or down.  It makes any protein taste better.

 

I follow a ketogenic diet post-op. I also have a diagnosis of binge eating disorder. Feel free to ask me about either!

I've always preferred white meat chicken over other proteins....although I do like ground beef.

I do a high fat diet too...but that is a result of my "new" innards.

How do you. Make a sage butter sauce. That sounds AWESOME!!!!

I usually eat steak for breakfast when I do eat it, heh.

I'll definitely check the ham out, too.  I normally detest white meat (I eat a very high fat diet - ketogenic) but I'll be freezing the turkey white meat with sage brown butter sauce, which will help considerably.

You defintely can freeze it. Turkey holds up pretty well. Plus there is so much you can do with it. Eat it as is, use it in soups, make it into a "Sheppards pie", put it on top of salads, etc. I don't think i'd buy a whole turkey though since I mostly only like the white meat. I'd buy the whole breasts though and make that.

Another good bargain this time of year is ham. Another protein that holds up to freezing...and is very versatile....it can also be used as a breakfast food.
