This week's OKC dinner- will you guys...

bring your favorite WLS friendly recipe with copies to share?  I posted this in another thread but thought it deserved it's own thread.  You folks are such creative cooks I need you to share the yummy ideas you have.  I get SOOOOO bored with my own cooking!  We could all leave with a bunch of new recipes to try at home- how exciting!

Lynette, are we going to be about 20 at dinner Tuesday night?

That's a good idea-and bonus points for quick and easy!  I live alone and am just not in to cooking elaborate stuff.

Deb, that is how I am.....I do not want to go out and buy a bunch of spices or ingredients. I am all about quick and easy! Nearly everything I make is that way. It's about taste and ease of recipe for me!  If I can add a seasoning packet in place of buying and measuring all the spices...then yippie for me!! I guess I am a lazy cook...but damn I'm good!!!
I am hoping to come Tues. I had dinner with Denise last night and she has me convinced that I need to come....I'm working on it....

Looks like about 16 thus far.  Remember, Ladies and Gents, 6:15 at Iron Starr on 36th and Shartel, Tuesday the 16th.  If you haven't told me you'll be there, please let me know so we can be prepared !!!!  AND BRING YOUR RECIPES !!!  

  Ummmm....I don't have recipes.....whatever I cook (when I cook), it's improvised!!! Don't know if you guys want to venture into that!!!

I don't cook either....my poor poor family...I will throw something together if they are sick of "fending for themselves."  I live on meat and cheese with an occassional fruit and veggie thrown in.  It's hard to motivate yourself to cook when the kids want BAD stuff and I eat such a little amount now.  My favorite thing is canned chicken breast.  You can do anything with that!!  lol

My wife is planning on coming Tuesday night.  I'm sure she will be ready to get out of there and be out.  She is excited about meeting all of you.  We are coming in tomorrow, and have to report in at 8 am Monday morning, with surgery at 10.  As I have said in a couple of other forums, thanks to each of you for all the info and inspiration.  Ya'll are great!  Gez, it's wierd, I've never met any of you personally, but almost feel like I have known you for years.   I am bascially going in with no fear, just excitement.  I posted some pics on my page of my family.  They are the reason I want to do this -- to be healthy so I can see them continue to blossom.  See ya'll on the other side!  Michael

Arkman---good luck on Monday!  I hope you have a safe trip and a speedy recovery from surgery.  My hubby started out at 454 and he is at 349 now.  He is only on about half of the meds he was on prior to surgery.  You and your family will be in my thoughts and prayers!

Good luck on Monday Michael! Tell your wife we are looking forward to meeting her. You have a beautiful family!

Michael, we'll be sure and take good care of your wife, if she promises to take good care of you !!!!!  I'll be thinking of you and pushing everybody on the bench over and be waiting for you !!
