Creamed spinach stuffed tomatoes are on my menu tonight, 3weeks out, am I pushing it?

1 thick slice almost ripe Tomato

creamed spinach:

easy way -

one can of condensed mushroom Soup

1/2 or whole carton frozen chopped spinach thawed and thoroughly patted dry

tspn garlic powder

1/3 cup diced sautéd onions

1/2 cup sautéd or canned chopped mushrooms

1/3 cup parmesan grated cheese

mix all ingredients in a saucepan over medium low heat until cheese melts, allow to cool, mixture should be the texture os soft mashed potatoes. Oil a cookie sheet or casserole dish. lay tomato slices 2" apart and mound creamed spinach. sprinkle with small amount of a mixture of parmesan mixed with seasoned bread crumbs. Bake 15 to 20 min at 350 or until top begins to brown.

Hard way-

start with bachmel sauce (3tblspoon each of flour,milk,butter heated and mixed over low heat) use 2 freshly minced cloves garlic. Use fresh baby spinach, found in a bag in the salad section and it's prewashed! cook the spinach 1/2 way or more in a saucepan with 1" of wate. Pat dry.follow above recipe.

Bon Appetite.

As long as the spinach is very well cooked there is not a problem.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
