Bariatric Foodie Play with your food

~by Nikki We’ve gotten great reviews of our decision to start doing recipe remixes. And we’ve even got a reader submission–from our friend Jane! Now Jane totally saved my butt his week. I was scheduled to do a restaurant remix this week, but unfortunately life got in the way. You may not know this, but during the day I work …

I’m so excited! And I just can’t hide it! I’m about to lose control…and I think I like it! (Dear Nik: the Pointer Sisters called and said, “cease and desist.” That is all.) So, if you are our fan on Facebook, you saw that I posted yesterday that I received my shipment of P-28 bread. After Jen’s review and delicious …

~~posted by Jen The world of protein shakes can be a confusing and sometimes difficult one to make your way through alone. Nik and I both struggled with finding a protein that we liked early out. What point is there to buying a protein powder if you don’t like it? We all know if you don’t like the way something …

~~posted by Jen Mini Meatloaf ready to eat! I was torturing y’all a couple weeks ago about my discovery of a non-carb binder for meatloaf, remember? I promised to tell you what it was, then Soup Week came along, and the meatloaf recipe got back-burnered. Well, it was pretty rude of me to leave y’all hanging like that, so I …

~~posted by Jen Dee’s Thai Shrimp Welcome to our very first “Recipe Remix” post. A recipe remix is exactly what it sounds like, we take an ingredient (in the case of this recipe it’s a sauce) or dish from a previous recipe and remix it into a whole different dish! This will help many of you who are faced with …

~~posted by Jen So we promised lots of cool new things once we reached 1000 Facebook fans, and now we’re well on our way to the 2000 fan mark! If you haven’t already liked our page, please go do so! That way you won’t miss out on any of our announcements, special contests, or polls we do only on Facebook. …

Before I start to tell you about the wonderful lusciousness you see above, I have two questions: Have you read our latest big announcement? If not, go read it…I’ll wait. Did you cook along with soup week? If you did, or are planning to, you have until Nov. 7 to e-mail your soup pics to be entered in the prize …

~~posted by Nikki Soup Week is coming to a close. We’ve enjoyed sharing these recipes with you and hope you’ve enjoyed them too! Please remember that if you are cooking along with us, that you have until  November 7th to email us either a picture of the soup you made from the blog this week OR a picture and recipe …

Don’t worry…it’s not one of those “Armageddon/’Goodbye, cruel world!” types of things. But it is pretty important so we thought we should make an announcement. We’re really excited about our upcoming Pouch Party™ 2010 Holiday Preview. And you’ve told us that you are pretty jazzed about it too. We are expecting a good crowd, but many of you who have …

~~posted by Jen Fall is the perfect time to roasting vegetables and Butternut squash is a fall favorite! It is colorful, it cooks up soft, and the flavor is mild, which means we can play with our food and customize the taste! Cut up and ready to be roasted! If I plan to have this soup on a week night, I’ll …
