Bariatric Foodie Play with your food

Here at Bariatric Foodie, we’re trying to find a good balance between recipes geared toward newer post-ops and ones for us “veterans.” This one, I would say…is more for the vets (but newbies…this is the kind of stuff you have to look forward to!). This is also good for people trying to wean their family off of fast food breakfasts! …

~~posted by Jen In case you didn’t see our Facebook post earlier this week, Amazon has a great deal on Click for just $20.88 per canister. if you buy it through Subscribe and Save it’s only $17.75! Free shipping on orders over $25, so that’s a pretty awesome deal.  In addition to the Mocha Espresso flavor, they now have Vanilla …

~~posted by Jen As promised, here is the quicker version of my red beans and sausage, perfect for a busy week night. I prefer the slow cooker version, but this one tastes really good and my family can’t tell the difference. I tend to be a glutton for punishment, that’s probably why I think the more labor intense version tastes …

~by Nikki I have a secret. Come close so I can tell you. I sometimes eat sugar in tiny amounts! Eek! Not much of it though. Mostly because there is a specific chain of events that has to happen in order for me to not dump (or go into “carb coma”) as a result. I have to: Eat a full …

Fresh From The Orchard! ~~posted by Jen Sorry this is kind of late, I’m fighting the cold from hell and have been knocked out on the couch (Thanks, Nyquil!) for the past few hours. We went apple picking at a nearby orchard this morning. That was SO much fun, and just what I needed. The sun was shining, the air …

~~posted by Jen Remember I told y’all I made a scrumptious breakfast concoction the other morning? Well I finally got it typed up for your enjoyment! The more ways I try this P-28 Protein Bread, the better I like it. After I posted my review of it the other day, I was inspired to make some French Toast. OK, let’s …

~by Nikki So I’ve heard this joke made several times about calling Whole Foods “whole paycheck.” Yeah, the place is a bit pricey. And for those of you who are near a Trader Joe’s you probably laugh in the face of Whole Foods. But the place has some merits, in my humble opinion, for several reasons: There are some things …

Now remember last week how Jen gave you her outlook on nachos? This is one of the many instances where we do the same dish, two ways. We’ve decided when that happens, we’ll both post so you can see various ways to approach a dish. For the folks that want their nachos now, now, now!!! I would suggest Jen’s recipe. …

~~posted by Jen So everyone’s all aflutter about Starbucks having their new fall items back on the menu. Nik has already created an awesome knockoff version of their Chai Latte, so I thought a protein shake version of the Pumpkin Spice Latte might be in order! Especially since I scored some canned pumpkin for 89 cents a can at Aldi yesterday, …

Grilled Cheese!!! ~~posted by Jen First, a disclaimer (I seem to be doing lots of these lately LOL): Our cool friend Melting Mama reviewed this same product awhile back, and I am certainly not trying to shirt-tail her by reviewing it here. My purpose is to help others in the WLS community avoid spending money unnecessarily and then end up not liking …
