I'm not sure what you are looking for specifically but this looks good as a substitute for chocolate cake (although I haven't tried it yet). I would substitute splenda for the whey low to bring the sugar down and avoid having to buy online ingredients. Hope this helps. Topic: RE: what was your favourite pureed meal?
I love soup and pureed any soup I really loved. Here's a favorite soup I pureed. http://www.food.com/recipe/christines-stuffed-bell-pepper-so up-318557 . I wonder about making a pureed creamy soup. Like for example a sausage & potato soup. Lots of sausage and not alot of potato's. Or your favorite main dish pureed into a creamy soup. Something with alot of meat and little amounts of sides, like potato's , pasta, rice, etc. I would love a high protein soup that is creamy. Gives me ideas as to trying to make a recipe like that. Thanks christine (internetnut)

Topic: RE: unflavoured protien powder

I put it in my soup to bump up protein OMG I just about puked! Nasty!!!! Well I now use the natural & unflavored protein powders in baking only! Haven't found a good one yet. But I do recommend chicken flavor unjury for soups yummy! Hope that helps! Christine
Topic: RE: ISO: Vitamin Salad (Cottage Cheese Based)
I've fell in love with this salad. It has mini marshmallows (can do without), cottage cheese, pineapple, and manadrian oranges. So good but I can't find a recipe online anywhere. Whipped a trial batch up to sit overnight to try tomorrow. But I was wondering if anyone has a recipe for this? Thanks christine
Topic: RE: Favorite Lettuce/Spinach Recipes?
These are a family favorite. This is not my recipe but I've made these time and time again. I helped make these in my cooking class at Chemung County Cornell Cooperative Extentsion. They were very easy to make. When we made these we used ground turkey which is exactly what I do all the time. We also used fresh spinach about 1 cup. When we cooked these patties we cooked them in a bit of oil to keep the patties from sticking. At the cooking class and at home these were cooked in a electric skillet. Please make sure to keep the lid on the skillet while cooking to keep the patties moist. When I made them at home I used thawed frozen ground turkey. I fryed my patties in Pam to cut on the fat content.
Spinach and Meat Cakes
- 1 lb 93% lean ground beef (7% fat or 93% lean) or 1 lb ground turkey (7% fat or 93% lean)
- 2 bunches spinach, bunches washed and cut into pieces (may substititute a 1-pound bag of frozen chopped spinach, thawed and well drained)
- 1/2 finely chopped onion
- 2 minced garlic cloves
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- black pepper
- 3 cups cooked brown rice
- 1 Preheat frying pan (no oil).
- 2 Combine all ingredients except brown rice in a large mixing bowl. Mix well.
- 3 Form mixture into 12 small balls. Place in frying pan and flatten into patties using a spatula.
- 4 Cook over medium heat until cooked on both sides.
- 5 Serve over cooked brown rice.
Topic: RE: Are there any WLS cook books?
Go to your local library. I know theres something like "Weightloss Surgery For Dummies" or do like I do, find WLS friendly recipes online. I've copied & pasted several from here and other sites (credit given to sites) of recipes I'd like to try on www.food.com . I'm in the same boat as you are, I am not making 2 different meals. I had enough of that right after surgery. So make the family my little testers right with me. And if you do a search "Weightloss Friendly Recipes" a ton of stuff comes up. Good luck!

Topic: RE: Yummy Chicken Thighs - Posted By berts4
Thanks I thought the cook time was off. I'm not sure where I found this was listed as done in the crockpot. Thanks so much! Christine (internetnut)
Topic: RE: Yummy Chicken Thighs - Posted By berts4
I was wondering if Berts4 can answer this question for me. I was wondering about the cook time on this chicken. 45-60 minutes on low sounds off. Am I wrong or can this really cook done in this length of time? Thanks so much! Christine (internetnut)
"Spray the crock pot dish. Then lay the chicken thighs in the crockpot. Pick one of the variations, and add one of the variations to the chicken, then pour the chicken broth over the chicken. Then cover and let simmer on low for 45-60 minutes until the chicken falls apart. Don't open the lid often or you will dry out the chicken. Shred chicken with fork. When it shreds easily its done".

I used 1 lb but next time I'll use 2lbs Topic: RE: Birthday Cake Recommendation?
I agree with the sf cheesecake, only because I can't seem to get regular cakes to turn out right when using Splenda. My cakes are to heavy and when refrigeratored get hard. I haven't tried the black bean cake (FEAR) but maybe soon. Best of luck! Christine (internetnut)
Topic: RE: baking with protein powder
I use protein powder in my baking all the time with no problems. I've even used Body Fortress with no problems. I even use protein powder in my pancakes. Just be careful on taste. I used 2 scoops of Body Fortress in my pancake batter and I could taste the difference so if taste is a problem for you start out with 1 scoop to a recipe you would have made before without protein powder and increase it to taste each time. I can useually just get 2 scoops in my stuff before I notice a difference. I hope this has helped! Happy baking! Christine (internetnut)

Topic: RE: Low Carb High Protein Apple Betty / Crisp
So welcome! I bake with it and it does just fine. I've only had problems with adding my protein powder to my coffee reheated in the micro. It was not pretty glumpy and gross. I've even used the cheap walmart protein powder for baking. Hope that helps! Christine (internetnut)

Thanks for the idea on adding protein powder to the topping - I thought about that but worry as many whey proteins don't do well when heated.
