Ok I was sleeved on June 26th and I am trying to find recipes that are high in protein that I can make to eat. I am tired of eggs, tuna, canned chicken, and cottage cheese. Seems all the recipes I find have some kind of bread or rice or other things that my doctor says I can't have. I found some pancake recipes that I thought would be a nice change but the dr. office said that they thought that would be to much like bread ugh. What are some things other than protein shakes do others eat. I think today I am just very frustrated and want something that is good to eat...I did look on Emily bites but muffins would also be a no no I guess in my drs. eyes. Thanks for letting me vent and any suggestions would be appreciated.

Try some other blogs, like Bariatric Foodie, Dashing Dish, and The World According to Eggface. My surgery was on June 19, so I'm right where you are. This week I'm planning to try some short ribs in the slow cooker & some roasted cauliflower "mashed potatoes", because I'm craving comfort food. We also have some salmon fillets that I think I can handle. I saw a crustless spinach quiche the other day that looked really good, and I can make individual ones in a muffin tin. I know that's eggs, but maybe it's still different enough from what you've been doing?

Deconstruct the recipes to take out the starch. For example, make the Pasta sauce, but use less oil and don't serve it over pasta. Up the meat content (whatever it is so it's more Protein dense).
