Shelly's Cheesy Cauliflower Casserole

4 cups Cauliflower, steamed

2 Tablespoons Butter, divided use

1/4 cup Flour (I use Spelt, higher in protein)

1/2 teaspoon Dry Mustard

1 teaspoon Salt

a few twists of Black Pepper

3 cups Milk

3/4 pound Sharp Cheddar cheese (3 cups)

1/4 cup bread Crumbs (optional)

Steam cauliflower set aside. Melt 3 tablespoons butter, blend in flour & seasonings. Add milk. Cook until thickened, stirring constantly. Stir in cheese; pour over steamed cauliflower and mix till combined. Top with optional crumbs mixed with remaining 1 tablespoons of butter. Bake at 375 for 30 minutes or until golden brown. This will make a ton... enough for family and many bariatric portions. You can half the recipe. You can add cooked ground chicken, turkey or beef to this too. Throw your portion in the Mini Chopper food Processor and whiz away. You can add unflavored Protein too... mix it in milk like you would a shake so it's dissolved or you'll get clumps.

Shelly's Ricotta Bake

8 oz of Ricotta cheese

1/2 cup grated Parmesan

1 large Egg, beaten

1 teaspoon Italian Seasoning

salt & pepper to taste

1/2 cup Marinara Sauce

1/2 cup shredded Mozzarella cheese

Mix ricotta cheese, parmesan, beaten egg, seasonings together and place in a oven proof dish. Pour marinara on top and top with mozzarella cheese. Bake it in the oven @ 450 for about 20-25 minutes (best) or nuke it till hot and bubbly. I usually made it first in the oven and heated the leftovers in the microwave.

This isn't really a recipe but I made it tonite on my first purée dinner and it was the best 'food' I ate in 3 weeks. I made my family rigatoni with turkey meatballs and broccoli. I puréed it! I had to add a bit of Water but it tasted really good! So I suggest if it's something you like preop (healthy and within the guidelines) then purée it and see how it is.

I make a lot of children Soup with papaya or potatoes, ginger and spinach. I would puree some of this.

One of my favorites is a low calorie Lasagna I would make and puree. Made with Whole Wheat Pasta, Turkey, sweet potato or kalabasa squash and a low fat spaghetti sauce.

Cereal and milk.

These are just a few things I did. If you would like any of the recipes let me know. It kinda gives you an idea anyway. I loved this part.

Best of luck!

I'm on week 3 of purees. My go to is scrambled eggs smashed up, add refried Beans, a little bit of ricotta and the liquid from salsa. Also, pureed egg salad. Sounds gross, but tastes exactly the same.

Yes check guideline tho I know I'm not allowed to have pastas. Too many carbs.

My NUT didn't give restrictions of carbs during purée phase. She actually recommended the blender spaghetti. I only put 2 pcs of rigatoni, it was mostly meatball and sauce and Water. And I only ate 1/4 cup.

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.
