Taco Casserole

This recipe is ubiquitous. (And, yes, I did use the word ubiquitous because I’ve been dying to use the word ubiquitous, thank you for noticing!) Even though that’s not quite the right word. Versatile? Mmmm…not really. Ok, so let me just say what it is I’m trying to say. There are very few people who don’t like this recipe! New …

I heart Nachos! You will, too!

~~posted by Jen Yes, I eat nachos as a WLS post-op. They were a pre-op favorite and not something I wanted to give up in my post-op lifestyle. So, I had to find a way to make them work in my plan. I don’t eat them every day, but I do have them probably once a week. The first step …

White Russian Protein Shake

~~posted by Jen Back in my younger days, we used to go to the VFW on Saturday nights. Laugh all you want, but I grew up in a very small, very rural town in Southwest Georgia.

Pouch Party Pets: Cheesy Dog Treats

~~posted by Jen Let me start off by saying: No, we’re not giving up on making great “people food” for y’all.

Who could forget the puppy napping incident?  Well it occurred to me …

Jane’s Spicy Jalapeno Dip

~by Nikki I think (suspect?)…I’m not sure but…this little blog might be coming into its own. My evidence for such a statement? Well…first a few of our friends stepped in to help me when I couldn’t take pictures of my banana bon-bons. And lately, we’ve been hearing from you guys. A lot. AND WE LOVE IT!!! So last week, Jen …

Curried Lentils

~by Nikki Ok, so the weather has dipped into the 70’s…the 60’s even for a few days. Which, technically, is a sign of climate change which probably means we’re all doomed. But after a long, hot summer…forgive me environmentalists…I am glad for the cooler weather. It has me thinking about things I haven’t thought about since…March at least. Baking. And …

I know a lot of you don’t eat white starches like potatoes. I don’t for the most part. Every now and again I’ll have …
