Shelly's ricotta bake- OMG



Recommended Posts

My surgeon said I can't have ricotta during the pureed stage because it's too thick, unless I add a bunch of Water and blend it so it's runny. =/

I still would like to try it with Mexican seasonings and Salsa. Might be a different treat?🍝

I got GENEPRO from the Bariatric Pal Store, been blending into my cream Soups to give a dietary kick and up the Protein. So far so good. Only failure I had was the day I tried to put it in Bone Broth abdcended up with Genepro noodles instead.

Snap! Tonight I made it with a bottom layer of refried Beans then instead of Italian herbs I did cajun seasoning. I should have put salsa on top but all I had (being lazy and not making my own) was no sugar Dolmios Tomato Pasta Sauce with basil, which was a bit weird but I didn't care!
It was delish. I also mixed in some cottage cheese I wanted to get rid of and that worked fine too!

That’s a GREAT idea! I think I’m the only one that didn’t like the ricotta bake. But with these changes I think I will love it! I’m making this tomorrow. Thank you!! 👍

I say go for it, mix it up. So long as you can eat black olives on the stage you're on!

Amazing food even my hubby loves it! Able to modify it as I move thru the stages by adding puréed veggies to it

This sounds really good - and easy! I am headed to grocery tomorrow to grab few items to finish out my "mushy food" week. I read the nutrition facts on this - - really 960 calories?? That seems like a lot for one serving.



*Edit update** I found other nutritional information on this site - 88 calories, 3.3 carbs, 9.2 Protein, 4 fat - DOES ANYONE KNOW WHAT THE SERVING SIZE IS?


1/2 cup servings it makes 4 servings

Is it possible someone could copy/paste/screenshot the ricotta bake recipe instructions here? When I try to visit the website, it says it isn't available in my country. :(

This does look sooo yummy! Here are screen shots of the ricotta bake. I also have an awesome stuffed pepper recipe. I actually pureed it and it still tasted delicious! Cut 4 sweet peppers in half. Put in casserole dish. Use a pound of ground beef, or ground chicken or ground Turkey. Brown that and add some garlic, some Italian seasonings and some red pepper flakes to it. Thaw out about 4 oz. Of spinach. Put 8 oz of ricotta cheese in bowl. Mix in half a cup of parmesan or what you want and mix in spinach. Add all to meat mixture. Mix everything together and add to peppers. Then I put on top a small can of Tomato sauce with a can of tomatoes with green chilis mixed together. Then top with mozzarella cheese. Bake at 400 degrees for like a half hour. Omg it was sooo delicious!!! SmartSelect_20190117-095530.jpeg SmartSelect_20190117-095552.jpeg

When off purees (I actually didn't even have a puree stage), you can add chopped cooked meatballs or browned ground meat and it's almost lasagna. I made a zucchini lasagna with zucchini (the only veg I'm currently allowed is zocchini/summer squash and canned green beans) in place of noodles and it was so good!! I don't measure the cheeses, etc, just eyeball. Shelly's recipe is the way my mom has always made the filling for lasagna, and I like hers better than Italian restaurants.

I make what is called 'lazy lasagna' using spinach in place of noodles. so good!

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
