ham taco rollups



Recommended Posts

Another recipe invented by yours truly, low carb, about 22 grams of Protein per serving and super easy.

Ingredients

2 large slices of smoked ham lunch meat

1 wedge of queso fresco & chipotle light laughing cow cheese, divided

1/4 cup of nonfat shredded cheddar, divided

2 tablespoons taco sauce divided

Taco seasoning, to taste

Instructions

1. Lay out ham slice and spread 1/2 the laughing cow cheese over the ham.

2. Use 1.5 tbsp of the cheddar at one end of the ham, then roll it up like a taquito, then place it on a sheet pan seam side down.

3. Spread 1 tbsp of the taco sauce over the top of the ham roll, then sprinkle with the taco seasoning (be careful, taco seasoning is strong stuff, so season like it was salt or pepper). Top the roll with the remaining 1/2 tbsp of cheddar cheese.

4. Repeat with the second ham slice.

5. Bake in an oven preheated to 350 degrees for 15 minutes.

Makes 2 rollups, which is 1 serving. Optional toppings are salsa, guacamole, nonfat sour cream

On a side note I recommend using a toaster oven because it's quick and easy. But if you don't, I would duplicate the recipe and make several servings, they refrigerate and reheat well. That way it will be worth the time to preheat the oven and bake them.

If you try them, let me know what you think.

That could work but it's a lot more complex than my recipe, mine uses lunch meat and everything is cooked so you just have to heat it up so the cheese melts, nit that your idea is bad, just not as quick. You could use Turkey or chicken lunch meat

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
