Hi, I am post-op RNY 2/7/18 and determined to get my protein in so I have tried to be creative for Phase 1 of my full-liquid diet. This is just me wanting to share for anyone wanting to try it out. I am not a fan of the protein shakes. I have yet to make decaf with protein premier.
#1- Protein Creamy Jell-O
8oz vanilla Premier Protein shake
8oz Fairlife Milk
4oz water
2.5 tbsp of plain gelatine
Warm 4oz of water and mix jell-o packs add to the milks and divide into 2oz cups. Let sit in fridge for 1 hour.
Mixture makes 12 x 2oz cups. Each one should total to about 2.9 grams of protein per 2oz cup. They are good. Remember to mix really well in water before adding to cold milk. You don’t want any lumps. I am not the best at typing up recipes so I apologize.
#2 Protein Broth
16oz Sams Choice Vegan Protein Broth (9 grams per serving Protein)
4 oz Cream of Chicken ( 2 grams per serving Protein)
4 oz Chicken Broth (2 grams per serving Protein)
Heat all in small sauce pot or microwave. I prefer in a sauce pot. Per 2oz portion it is 2.2 grams of protein.
It may not seem like a lot, but Protein adds up and taste better warm or in texture vs liquid all the time. Good luck to everyone. Again, I am just placing down a couple of things I tried today and it seemed to help. Just my experience to yours. Also reminder low sodium and low fat items. Good luck!!!! If anyone else has other recipes, shoot them over. I would love to try new stuff!!
