Salsa chicken

4 chicken breasts cut into little bites , boil or pam a skillet and fry until just a little under done

1 large jar of your favorite salsa

Add salsa to skillet and simmer while you fix rice. This is where the chicken is finished cooking.

Add chicken and salsa on top of rice. Enjoy. Reheats well too.

Low calorie and yummy.

Dont overcook the chicken or it will be "Rubber Chicken Salsa" lol.

Sometimes I use chicken tenders. The amount of chicken,salsa and rice to totally up to you.

Hamburger Surprise

Get 1 lb of 90/10 ground beef. Add 1 egg, breadcrumbs, worstcheshire (sp??), salt, pepper, and garlic. Mix all together in a bowl. Make 2 hamburger patties, one slightly larger than the other. Place the larger of the two patties in an 8x8 baking dish.

In a pan, saute onions, bell pepper, and mushrooms. Once veggies are done, place them on top of your larger patty. Cover with cheese (of your choice). Place smaller patty on top of veggies. Pull the bottom patty up to the top and pinch together (so that veggies and cheese are enclosed). Bake in oven for about 20 minutes (on 350).

I LOVE this recipe. . .it's like having a really good burger without the bread. I even put mustard and ketchup in my meat while I'm mixing it with everything else. You can just cut out a slice of it and enjoy!! Reheats really well too!! If you prefer lower carb, substitute the breadcrumbs with smashed pork-rinds.

Enjoy!!

Wow I am surprised that you are both eating this type of meat. I am only to have seafodd and dark chicken. No white meat and beef. How long since your surgeries?

I did a search on recipes and nothing came up. I will do another search before I continue with this forum .

Thanks,

Okay. . I should clarify that I have not had this recipe since my surgery (which was 05/31), BUT. . my nutritionist told me that beef is fine as long as it's at least 90/10. He also told me that I could have chicken breast, as long as it's moist. He said that dark meat would probably be better, but the moist white meat would be fine too. I am 2 weeks post-op, and on to soft foods, but my surgeon wants me to incorporate a different solid food with each meal. I have my first fill scheduled for 07/02 (just 2 1/2 weeks away)!!

thanks edieparks for the recipe yummy!!!

Thanks for the recioes. I look forward to try these recipes when I am on solids. I have yet to find any soft food recipes. Seems like everything I eat just truns into GASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS. I eat mostly fish, soft veggies, yogurt, low sodium V8, applesauce and scrambled eggs. I had my surgery 2 weeks ago and still stuggling with gas pains and constipation. I would gladly accept any recommendations anyone has on this.
