Bariatric Recipes

I have a good friend from OH who is always sending me stuff. In the two years I’ve been an active member she’s sent me Christmas goodies and when I met her in person she came loaded down with stuff for me. I love presents, but especially those types of presents because they give me a glimpse into who a …

So I had my blog post all written and then I realized something. It was tuna. And last week was tuna. I don’t want you all to think Meatless Fridays is ALL about tuna. It’s just my go-to for quickie meals and lunches. So while I am going to post my original recipe which is what I’m having for lunch, …

St. Paddy’s Day is still a ways away, but I am in the mood to be Irish for a minute. Indulge me. This protein shake reminds me of the Bailey’s Irish Creme ice cream I used to eat when I was a kid. Interestingly enough, I have only had real Irish coffee (made by Irish people no less) once in …

So I’m not doing the meat thing on Fridays. Which means I gotta get protein without meat (scary). This idea came from Whole Foods. I was there one day and bought some mediterranean tuna salad ($4 for 4 oz.) and thought “I could make this myself for way cheaper.” It utilizes a bunch of stuff you probably already have in …

Well…not really. The below recipe is a cross between a “happy accident” and “necessity is the mother of all invention.” Here’s what had happened: I live in Baltimore and it was decided (by God, Mother Nature, or whomever you personally hail to) that Baltimore should get a gabillionty seven inches of snow over the course of a week. Before the …

Interesting name for a post about pancakes, innit? You all have seen my Carbquik pancake recipe right? Well…I am always looking to improve my recipes and techniques. To that effect, I was browsing stuff online and came across some Carbalose flour. I’d seen it before but wasn’t quite sure I wanted to try to use it. I mean Carbquik already …

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!! Do you have your New Year’s plans set? Did you find some sugar-free sparkling cider? Going full out with some champagne? Well I know it’s last minute but I just mixed up a nice batch of  protein sugar-free egg nog and OF COURSE I had to share the love with you all! Sugar-free Egg Nog 3 cups …

So we at Bariatric Foodie are all about equal opportunity. We believe that post-op WLS patients have the same right to yummy food as everyone else. We also believe we should have our own indulgences. The account that follows is my attempt to fulfill an indulgence of my own. Please take note of a few things before we start on this …

I’m delving into a different kind of protein shake. One for the “grown and sexy” set. Ladies who take martinis in the morning and their lovers in the afternoon and all that jazz… So why the pic of Eartha Kitt? Well…if she was a post-RNY patient she is EXACTLY the kind of person who would drink this sophisticated shake. (That …

So I wasn’t going to post this recipe. Because I thought it would be kinda cruddy to post a WLS friendly dessert two days after Thanksgiving. But here’s the deal. This got a command encore. So here’s how the whole thing went down. I bring my sugar-free, high-fiber dessert to Thanksgiving dinner. I advertised it as sugar-free which, theoretically, meant …
