ideas for food to bring to a party



Recommended Posts

Tomorrow is a coworkers bday party and everyone brings in snacks/goodies. I want to contribute but also would like to enjoy some. Any ideas what to bring that's Protein packed that I can eat as well as my coworkers would enjoy.

I usually do fresh veggies with a Greek yogurt ranch dip. Just plain non fact Greek yogurt plus hidden valley ranch powder.

You haven't said what phase you're in or what your surgeon's guidelines are for your phase. I'm assuming high Protein, lower carb, lower fat.

If you're on solids, then any sort of baked chicken like chicken tenders (not breaded, not fried) would be great!

Deviled eggs are also great!

If you web search "low carb appetizers"...many will be perfect, depending on your surgeon/nutritionist's guidelines.

I found this website. I'd look for lower carbs/lower fat or adjust accordingly: http://allrecipes.com/recipes/everyday-cooking/special-diets/low-carb/appetizers/

Someone on here said that their NUT suggested those little ham/cream cheese/tortilla roll up things. You know what I mean! Some grocery stores delis carry them or you can make them yourself. Wait, I googled it. They're called ham pinwheels! This just sounds delicious to me!

Ham roll ups - thick sliced ham with cream cheese rolled up and sliced . Stick a toochpick in it ! Very low on carbs. Some people add a pickle in it.

Tooth pick lol

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
