Best scrambled eggs ever!



Recommended Posts

My NUT cleared me for mushies today. My lunch after: a scrambled egg made in butter with half a laughing cow cheese. I could only eat half of it, but wow it was good after all those cloying chemicals. Next up: refried Beans? Ricotta bake? Pumpkin-coconut curry Soup? ? THE OPTIONS ARE ENDLESS!

Egg beaters (all egg whites) with 2 tsp of homemade vegetarian spaghetti sauce added while it cooks - I love this variation!

sounds good. cottage cheese added to scrabbled eggs ain't bad either and adds another punch of protein!

If you like dill, it's great in a creamy cheesy scrambled egg!

Also the ricotta bake is delicious and amazing and I adored them when I was on mushies.

Good ideas, all! I had cream of wheat (with a half-scoop of genepro!) this morning. FOOOOOD!

Throw in a big hand full of spinach first and cook it down before you scramble your egg. Great way to get in a couple servings of veggies because they cook way down. I also use the laughing cow cheese with it. 5 mths out and its still my favorite Breakfast most mornings! It was heaven on a plate when I was first allowed to eat food!

Sometimes I also put a spoonful of salsa on it too. YUM!

I liked 1 poached egg on some refried Beans with salsa at this stage.

My favorite with eggs are egg whites/Beaters with:

  • goat cheese/feta + tarragon alone or Herbes de Provence
  • cheddar or monterey jack + cumin + red chili powder + hot sauce + guacamole + cilantro
  • cottage cheese + black pepper + thyme (or Herbes de Provence)
  • parmesan or mozarella + italian seasoning
  • Ragu double cheddar + thyme + black pepper
  • Swiss + parsley + black pepper
  • Gouda + chives + black pepper
  • All the above go fine with onions, bell peppers, mushrooms, ground turkey or chicken. I usually use olive oil with eggs.< /li>

And for lunch/dinner I love, love LOVE egg drop soup: egg beaters + chicken broth + soy sauce + tofu + ginger + garlic + shiratake noodles

Question.

I'm still a week away from mushies, but love eggs with hot sauce. Can we eat spicy food?

My surgeon/nutritionist list spicy foods "as tolerated." Some foods you may have to test to see if/when your sleeve is okay with it. I've had no problem with spicy foods, but others have.

      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!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      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!!
