Nik’s “Magic” Meatballs

What’s in a meatball? When you make Nik’s…a whole lot! I know a lot of you buy your meatballs at the grocery store. It’s convenient, I know. There are many brands that have turkey and lean beef and they are quite tasty. I don’t tend to buy pre-packaged meatballs, though. Why? (Broken record in 5, 4, 3, 2…) Well first …

I-HOP ain’t got nothin’ on us!!

~~posted by Jen Who hasn’t drooled over those IHOP commercials for stuffed French Toast? And if you say you haven’t, then you’re probably lying! Those commercials are too much for me, so I had to make up a protein version we could enjoy post-WLS. It’s way easier than you might think, and looks really pretty on a plate. A very …

The Egg NikMuffin…

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!).

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. …

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 …

Low Country Boil, Shrimp Fritters, & Lemon Pesto Oh My!

~~posted by Jen So last night I got semi-ambitious and made Low Country Boil for our Friday night dinner. For those who’re asking “WTH is Low Country Boil?”, I’ll tell you! It’s a very common dish in Coastal Georgia and the Carolinas. For you Northeastern folks, it’s like a clambake in a pot. Quite simple to make, here’s how: Basically …
