Topic: Buffalo Ranch Chicken

Here's my recipe for buffalo ranch chicken.

Materials:

Preferred Chicken (I've used both wings and breasts)

Franks Red Hot Buffalo Sauce (or whatever kind you like)

2 Buttermilk Ranch seasoning packets

Preferred hot sauce (Not needed, but I like em spicy)

 

Directions:

Wisk buffalo sauce, one ranch packet, and desired hot sauce in big bowl. Dredge chicken in bowl and let set for 30 minutes to 1 hour (I imagine overnight is best but that is a level of preparedness I do not have). Spray baking sheet with non-stick spray (I use the olive oil one). Lay chicken on sheet and spread leftover sauce on chicken. Take another ranch packet and sprinkle seasoning on top of chicken (doesn't need too much, just enough to give it that tangy ranch taste. Bake at 375 for 1 hour. Enjoy!

Best part is the sauce calories are at a minimum. The only thing this recipe has is maybe an elevated sodium count, but I need extra so yeepee!

 

Also, sorry if this is hard to read. I don't write recipes, or follow them for that matter. Ya experimentation!

Topic: Breakfast Ideas?

I have been on the Supervised Weight Loss diet since 8/5.  In the beginning I ate scrambled eggs and omelets for breakfast every day.  To say the least, I got burnt out.  

I spoke to my dietitian about my breakfast problem. She gave me a recipe to to try, individual egg fritatas.  They were just okay, still tasted like egg (duh).  So I turned to my Premier Protein shakes for breakfast.  

I can't have any white carbs so cereals of any kind are out.  Does anyone have a special breakfast recipe that can lift me out of my breakfast funk?  I only have 22 days until my RNY.  I prefer not to continue drinking my PP shakes during my remaining time since I will HAVE to be on shakes after surgery.

Proti-Diet sells a liquid to add to water that will add 15g protein.  Tropical is a really good flavor and price is standard all over.  Check Amazon for it.  Easy way to add water and protein.

Topic: RE: Spaghetti Squash Casserole - So Good!

My 1st experience of cooking and eating spaghetti squash was in August.  I made "spaghetti" with meatsauce.  It was okay.

My 2nd experencing with spaghetti squash was this Spaghetti Squash Casserole.  I was awesome!  My husband even tried it later that night as a snack.  He LOVED it.  I have prepared it for dinner (at my husband's request) 2 more times.  This dish is definitely our favorite meal.  BTW, neither of us likes squash, so we just don't discuss that this meal is made with squash...LOL!!

A close friend recently encouraged me to try spaghetti squash, and even gave me tips on how to cook it.  For the first time in my life, I tried it and LOVED it.  I'm going to try your casserole.  Thanks for sharing it!

Topic: help protein go toos and recipes

I am 2 months post op on the 14th

I have a low budget to buy food and I only do simple recipes.

I like chicken, turkey, tuna, hambuger, I like tacos, and asperagus etc

I eat about 1/4th of a cup maybe a little more depending on the food.

I am always running and I need something I can have on hand that I dont need a microwave for.

I do get the p3 protein packs I like them( there ok right?)

I like chocolate and after a meal I will have maybe, but not all the time a taste of it.

I am not a big cooker but I cook

and I also feed a family of 5

please help me with ideas

things i cant do after the total of 5 weeks in the beginning are, applesauce, eggs, cottage cheese, greek yogurt, soups etc

I would like to know also what I can put protein powder in to make thinks have more protein

oh and I only get in 34oz of water is there anything else I could do to help get it in.

there is a water with protein in it sold online or at GNC i dont remember the name does anyone know?

and also how about a protein bar what kind should I get

My NUT says we need to be below 10g in carbs, fat, sugar and high in fiber and protein I kinda find that hard because one thing might be high and all the rest ok or something ellse is high and the rest ok... its frustrating

You can also find it in kosher markets as an Israeli product called ''gevinah lavanah''.

 

I eat it for breakfast nearly every day with some fresh blueberries, raspberries, or cantelope.  Yummy stuff, high in protein, low in fat and carbs.  I totally prefer it to Greek yogurt.

Take skinless chicken breast, dip in ranch packet, bake at 400 for 20-25 minutes, eat. Now do that with all the different spices you can dream of. Or use buffalo sauce.
