Eggs are the devil!

Maybe I will try that out.  Thanks for the idea!

Hi Valerie:

Did you make your own custard? If so, recipe please?

Thanks from NH

This is a pressure cooker recipe that I love. I would imagine if you don't have a pressure cooker you could put it in the oven, just not sure how long. 

This eats like a dessert, but has an awesome nutritonal stat profile and is guilt free. Breakfast food at my house!

4 large eggs (cold)

2 cups skim milk

2 tsp vanilla 

1/4 cup splenda (or sugar if you are not a splenda user)

1/8 tsp salt

cinnamon and nutmeg to taste

120 calories (if splenda was used), 11g protein

Directions:

1. 1 cup water in the liner, place your trivet in. This is a pot in pot recipe (PIP).
2. Whisk eggs until smooth, add remaining ingredients except cinnamon/nutmeg and whisk in. 
3. Divide into 4 ramekins (or 2 fiesta bowls) and sprinkle with cinnamon and nutmeg.
4. Cover bowls with foil and place them on the trivet.
5. 7 minutes high pressure, QR (quick release).

I have used one large bowl or 2 fiesta bowls- you might need to tinker with the cooktimes if you elect to do this, but forgot to write down the times used. If someone could post a time if the opt for this that would be great!

Thank you - will try to cook it in ramekins in oven with water in a pan.

Thank goodness eggs don't give me a problem.  I did just discover that apparently milk does now, though.  During my liquids phase, I used to get queasy when drinking my protein shakes I made with skim milk.  I just put it down to the protein powder as it was new for me.  Then stopped the shakes when I went to solid protein.  A couple days ago I decided I'd like a nice chocolate protein shake, and boy was I sorry.  Within 15 mins I was queasy again.  Poured it out and put protein powder in some broth...no problems.  So, guess it's almond milk for me from now on lol.

I think I became lactose intolerant after the surgery, so now I only drink almond milk NOT regular cow's milk.  However, the odd thing is I can eat cheese and other diary all day long without a problem!

Hard cheese and yogurt is easier to tolerate for the lactose challenged. Can't remember why, but there is a good reason for that :)

Very true, I have no issues with cheese or yogurt or anything else, but they are cultured, etc, so different from plain milk.  I hope that doesn't change...LOVE MY CHEESE!!! lol

I can totally relate!  Scrambled is ok sometimes but if I eat a boiled egg, OMG, nauseated and sick.  I am 10 weeks out.  

Hopefully we will both get over our aversion to eggs!
