~by Nikki We’ve been talking about breakfast a lot lately, haven’t we? I guess we go through cycles, just like any other food blog. Rest assured we have plenty of stuff for the other four meals of the day coming up (and Jen has already led the charge with a great snack recipe and me just yesterday with my “magical food”!). …

~~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 …

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 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 …

~~posted by Jen I spent today with my boys Zeus and Mickey and with my ex father-in-law for his 81st birthday. We had a nice visit and I got home much later than I had originally planned. That made me REALLY glad I had some of this awesome Spinach and Bacon pie in the fridge to heat up for a …

~~posted by Jen Lots of times I steam fresh or frozen veggies for a side dish, and inevitably when I clean out the fridge, there is always a sad little container of leftover vegetables.  Today was my weekly fridge cleaning day, and I found just such a container of mixed vegetables (peas, corn, carrots, & green beans), maybe a cup …

Raise your hand if you ever crave chocolate. Anybody? Anybody at all? (chirp…chirp…) KIDDING! Any chocolate lover occasionally gets a craving for something chocolatey and when you do, really, what do you reach for? A candy bar? A fudgesicle? Me…I’m not a cold treat kinda gal most of the time and I dump so if I even THINK about candy …

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 …

So there’s a story behind this recipe (of course). I was on the treadmill reading Food Network Magazine (as I was wont to do in my earlier days) and I saw this egg dish that looked very pretty: it was eggs in a cup made of phyllo dough. Loved the concept. Did not want the phyllo dough. So I decided …
