Lapband Meals For The Family

I cook for my family and am not going to cook separate meals for myself so I am tweaking old favorites and coming up with meals that we all will eat. This is a super easy and great for us banded too!

4 frozen or fresh chicken breasts

1 jar salsa of your choice

1 can black Beans

1 can corn

Place all ingredients in crock pot. Cook on high for 6-8 hours. Place all in a ninja blender or food processor ( I do 2 batches) and chop. My family eats this for taco filling. Top as you want. I have 3 oz. topped with some avocado. It's all I need and do yummy!

If anyone has a family friendly recipe, please share it!

    Great idea ! I dont have any Band friendly recipies as i did'nt know there was such a thing . I just thought since each person is different, you just ate/cooked what ever you could tolerate. My hus

This sounds delish! Awesome idea for tacos.

I make spaghetti using whole grain Pasta and 93% lean ground turkey instead of beef. It's very good!

I still eat the same meals with my kids all the time, I just substitute ground turkey for ground beef, use whole grain pastas, brown rice, and skim milk. It's really helped make a lot of recipes they're already used to healthier and they can't even tell a difference.

Great idea ! I dont have any Band friendly recipies as i did'nt know there was such a thing . I just thought since each person is different, you just ate/cooked what ever you could tolerate. My husband is diabetic so most of our meals are diabetic friendly, and he must watch his salt intake too. He doesnt like sweets, and i dont need them so there are no sweets or junk food in our house, outside of a little salsa and chips. Try looking for diabetic recipies online or for cookbooks at 2nd hand stores. Yummy ! we eat well, Lots of recipies with ground turkey,beans and lofat refried beans all meats, ,whole wheat noodles , fruits and veggies and lots of lo salt, low cholesterol items. i can tolerate most foods so we have a good variety. good luck !
