Topic: Orange Glazed Turkey Tenders

Saw this recipe and wondered about it... Anybody try anything like this? Orange Glazed Turkey Tenders 2 teaspoons olive oil 1 pound turkey tenders 1/2 teaspoon salt 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper 1/3 cup orange marmalade 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar 1 tablespoon peeled & grated fresh ginger 1 small navel orange cut into wedges 1 teaspoon parsley 1. In a non-stick skillet, heat oil on medium temperature until hot. 2. Place turkey tenders in skillet and sprinkle with salt and pepper. 3. Cook tenders until they are slightly browned on the outside and have lost the pink color on the inside. This will take about 4 minutes on each side. 4. While tenders are cooking, mix marmalade, vinegar and ginger in a small bowl. 5. Add this mixture to the skillet containing the turkey heat to a boil. Upon reaching the boiling point your delicious turkey entrée is ready for garnish. 6. Garnish with the orange wedges & parsley to serve.

Topic: RE: Protein

I too had issues with the shakes after surgery. At one of my support group meetings they suggested Genpro. Amazon sells it. 30 grams protein per scoop and I mix with crystal light. That I can handle. 3 months out for me now and I still can't do the shakes. Good luck. Your post was back in December, so you probably have found something before now.

Topic: RE: Pizza

I use pork rinds for pizza. 1/4 cup crushed with 1/4 cup parmesan cheese. Add one egg and italian seasonings and some garlic. I use parchment paper on a pizza pan and spread it out very thin. It may be sticky. If you barely wet your hands, it makes it easier. I cook it at 350 for 10 minutes. Then I take it off the paper and cook on just the pizza pan for about 5 more minutes(I like a crunchy base). Then I get it out and add cheese and my toppings. You put it in under broil for about 3ish minutes. Make sure you watch it close or it could burn. I take it out, cut it up and dip it in pizza sauce. AMAZING...

Old thread, but had to chime in. Cholula is my all time favorite. We go through a big Costco bottle every few weeks in my house. It's a pretty mild hot sauce but fantastic on just about anything.

We got 12 individual rollatinis out of this recipe. I would eat 2 of them for dinner, so that would only be 6 servings. I am in maintenance, earlier on I would probably only have eaten one of those pieces, so 12 servings.

How many servings do you get out of this? Curious as 8 servings weigh in at 355 calories, 19g protein, 18g carbs.

I've made this several times pre-op. So good. Personally, I also like to add high quality no sugar added bacon. I cook the bacon about halfway, then I add it between the cheese and the eggplant. So good and a little extra protein. Makes a little smokier tasting too!
