Ham egg cups:

To assemble, grab a cupcake/muffin pan and place a thin slice of ham or turkey in each space.

Sprinkle finely chopped red and green peppers at the bottom. Crack an egg into each ham "cup". Season with salt and pepper. Bake at 375 degrees for 10 mins. Remove it and serve.

This is my mom incorporating ideas for when I'm able to eat. Nom! Nom! Nom!

Hi Jackie

What week did you test bread out. I love pizza but the bread cares me. I am on my fifth week

Kiwi' date='

You and me both. I know that it's not something healthy or anything that we should be indulging in but I'm pretty sure that if we have a slice once in a blue it wouldn't kill us. I live in NYC so like every block or so has a pizzeria. Lol. No fun.[/quote']

Dee, I was told after six weeks post op, I can have thin crust pizza, with healthy toppings.

I haven't had broccoli but if I can handle it in the future maybe I can have a slice with broccoli on top sounds good right? I eat Celeste frozen pizza usually half of it the whoe pie is 350 calories.

Oh yum!

I think we all try way too soon. I wasn't able to tolerate it until the end of my 3rd month. Just make sure to do small bites and chew really good.

I'm going to be 3 months. Had only 1 slice of papa John pizza the slice is tiny not like regular pizza places like 2 weeks ago since I was leaving the beach with my family. Now sometimes I eat half frozen Celeste pizza for lunch. I don't eat much. Taking my self out to UNO for steak tips & mash potato when I hit 6 months.

@jackie I know we do. My body luvs fresh fruit and nuts salad turkey chilli. I try new stuff every week sometimes it's good and sometimes it bad because of the up chuck part. I love mash potatoes too. I haven't been temp to try bad stuff I don't need.

That's awesome...it's hard sometimes to not want the stuff that isn't good for you when everyone around you is eating it. Like at parties and such. I had my surgery a week before Easter nd going to the family dinner and having to drink broth was just depressing...but now I feel much better about it. I hardly ever do anything I would consider a bad choice but it's nice to know that every once in awhile I can treat myself. I too try out new foods and like you.l.sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. I defiantly think this is a journey and I'm glad we have this forum to lean on each other and share our experiences. When others in my family don't know how I'm feeling...it's nice to get on here and hear from people who do.

Mmm sounds good!

Need advice, i am a munchier. I am in the pureed stage but I need some crunch. Any recommendations?

Rice cake is really good. I have to buy another bag. Took me like 3/4 days to eat a small bag since I can't fit much after surgery.

I'm a big crunchy fan as well. Once you get past pureed foods, you might want to try Kashi Pita crisps. 120 calories in eleven crisps and crunchy heaven! Great with salads, soups, or even as a low calorie snack. Kellogg's Special K Cracker chips are excellent as well. Not quite as crunchy as the pita crisps but a really great substitute for potato chips and 110 calories in 27 chips. They come in a ton of flavors and I eat them any time I would have eaten chips or fries in my other life. Lol! You might enjoy nuts as well. Just about any kind of nut you can name is rich in "good" fats (mono and polyunsaturated) and they're a good source of protein as well.

Great idea Mami! I love the Quakes Rice Snacks and they come in sweet and savory flavors! 120 to 140 calories and they are delicious!

My first week out, all I dreamt of was a bowl of refried beans and cheese.

Crunch o's are filled with protein. Have the crunch but melt in your mouth. I got them at my Dr office, but you can Google them too.
