That Pasta looks so good! Is that cashews on top? Nice idea

It's a mix of cashew nuts and nutritional yeast. It's the stuff in the little glass on the left site of the picture. Expensive as f*ck, but every time I tried to do a mix of it myself it simply didn't taste the same. 😞

Ok, more chaffle experiments. This is my best yet! I call it my Lo Lo Chaffle! :) 42cals; 4g protein; 2g fat; 2g carbs; 2g fiber; 0g net carbs; 0g sugar. :D I had it with PB & Blueberries and a hard boiled egg. So tasty. Still full and I ate around 11:30pm.

Oh and it actually tastes like bread! No eggi-ness at all!! Zero. Zilch. Nada.

I'm curious what products you'll use as a substitute. I always think it's a bit complicated (and most likely doesn't taste the same) when having to use substitutes.

I have used vegan chorizo, vegan crumbles, textures vegetable Protein and seitan ... But he eats cheese and doesn't care that much about meat subs so I may get off easy 😂

For baking its a little trickier. I use coconut and almond flours but those recipes have to be followed PERFECTLY or its ruined. I find there is no wiggle room with those subs 😢

No wiggle room at all. Very fussy.

What is the recipe for this one?? It looks like a “real” waffle. I’ve only tried a chaffle once and it just tasted like straight up cheese to me.

It tastes like real bread, not cheese nor egg. :) I am trying to get the recipe up this week, but having technical issues right now. I promise to post it soon. OK?!!!

Will this be on your site Fluffy? I don't have a waffle maker, wonder if pancakes would do? Looks so good!

Yes, it will be on the site--if I can ever figure out how to configure it. LOL!

I'm working on it. :)

So you can use any size waffle maker. You just center the chaffle in the middle of your machine. You can get them used at GoodWill or Thrift Stores for about $10.

You can order this from Amazon for $9.99 https://amzn.to/2GVCDU7

The batter/dough is very thick and sticky. They need to be pressed out and thinned to crisp up. So I don't think they would work as pancakes. But here is a recipe for my silver dollar pancakes that works well.

Here's the biscuit mix recipe that you make ahead and store: https://fluffychixcook.com/mile-high-keto-biscuit-mix-low-carb/

Then here's the pancake recipe:

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
