sea salt and black pepper
black. red or pinto beans , one can, drain well and rinse in water, then whizz in ur food precessor, ( i cant eat bean as is, gets stuck, so i whizz it)
LF mozzerella
nice good size pan
i sauteed the garlic and onion in the oil and ghee untill it was almost mushed to nothing, set that aside,

Hi,
I am only 3 weeks post op and I have my second follow up appt with my surgeon, this Friday, August 22nd. If she tells me that I can definitely go to pureed food, I am definitely going to try this one out. It sounds great. Thanks for the great recipe.
By the way, I didn't see that you had a name for this recipe. I think that you should call it Cheesy Turkey Ragu. But a recipe that sounds so good, should definitely have a great name! (smile)
Thanks again, I'll try it as soon as my doctor says okay to Pureed food. I'll let you know how it comes out for me.
Thanks,
Miss1775.
