Bariatric Recipes

 Word to the wise, peeps. Take a look at what’s going on in the veggie bin of your fridge. Sometimes you bought something knowing you’d cook it and love it only to find it months later, rotten, watery and smelly. But look on the bright side. At least you helped your kid get a jump on their science project, …

 Ohhh procrastination! How do I love thee? This shake was supposed to go up around Valentine’s Day. I even had a really cute name for it (“Nik’s Love Potion #10”). Alas, it was not meant to be. But the good news is this. I’m turning a corner on this bug I have and needed a protein boost so I …

 I’m sort of under the weather this week, so rather than try to sneeze my way through a bunch of longer recipes, I thought I’d give myself a break and catch up on the gazillion and two products I’ve been meaning to tell folks about. Next up…Fiber One English muffins! Now, up until now I’d done Thomases 100-cal English …

 First, I should say that I don’t do the most scientific product reviews in the world. Sure, I try to commit to trying stuff plain and paying attention to how it his my palet, but on the overall, I kinda wing it. Well today I REALLY winged it and now I sort of regret that. Why? Well because I …

 I can’t tell you how many post-ops have looked me straight in the eye and told me it was impossible for them to have a good lunch at work. Now for some of you this is true. But many I spoke to worked in offices with all the necessary components to have a good lunch with just a little …

(Programming Note: If you like this, or any other BF recipe, an easy way to let me know – so I can keep more recipes like it coming – is by clicking one of the “reaction” boxes at the end of the post!) You ever clean out your refrigerator and find small blocks of random cheese (that’s still good) that …

 I just want to clear up one thing first. I have no idea if there is really such a thing as Mexican Egg Casserole. That’s just the best name I could come up with for what this is. It is not a quiche. Not even a crustless one. Quiche implies a lightness this thing does not possess. No…this boy …

This is a true story of how one little sugar-free caramel pudding cup became a very big deal in my life. I’ll try to be brief. Basically, I was in Wal-Mart and I saw some sugar-free caramel pudding cups. Having never seen them before, I was excited. Brought them home, tasted then and…ennnhhh. They were o.k. But they needed some …

 What a perfect lazy day dinner this makes! I made this last night for the divas and I as we camped on the sofas and watched a marathon of 48 Hours Mystery (is it strange that my children like television news magazine programs?). Red Beans & Rice (a la Nik) Ingredients 3 cups of cooked kidney beans (I made my …

 Oh McDonald’s. Your food is so appealing to the eye…but yet so scary when you find out the facts about it! Have you ever read Fast Food Nation? If you absolutely love McDonald’s…don’t read that book. It will freak you out and you’ll never want to eat there again. (Now I’ve gone and made you curious, haven’t I?) At …
