OMG ! How were the tacos themselves? Any texture or tastes differences?

The tacos were GREAT! The texture was spot on for a regular tortilla. Taste-wise, they weren't overly flavorful, but I find multigrain wraps tend to have a little bit of a bland flavor to them, so it wasn't anything unusual. And really, the flavor comes from what you're putting in the tortilla more than the tortilla itself!

They also have low-carb (not 1-carb) in multigrain and pico de gallo that are presumably regular sized rather than street taco size...and regular carb tortillas in more varieties.

Made a Gardien ultimate burger with mustard, dill relish, spicy banana peppers, and tomatoes with homemade refried fat free vegan cheesy (nutritional yeast) black Beans.

The burger was just okay. Should’ve cooked for a shorter time. Loved the refried beans.

Based beans off this but added tons of garlic and a small diced yellow onion and 2 cups of vegetable broth instead of Water.

Also ended up eating most of the leftovers later on but still ended up scraping some in the trash.

These are more like wraps, but they work well as tortillas, 5 g net carbs and 9 g Protein.

Sophie7713, Looks absolutely FANTASTIC!! The perfect amount of char on the peppers...did you grill this? And yes, I believe filet mignon will be easier to digest here, too. After years of gas grilling, hubby and I decided to go back to the Weber Kettle Charcoal Grill for the flavor that we love. Delivered last week, haven’t used it yet, but this looks like a great dish to try😋. Thanks for idea!💖

      Oh yeah, something I wanted to rant about, a billing dispute that cropped up 3 months ago.
      Surgery was in August of 2023. A bill shows up for over $7,000 in January. WTF? I asks myself. I know that I jumped through all of the insurance hoops and verified this and triple checked that, as did the surgeon's office. All was set, and I paid all of the known costs before surgery.
      A looong story short, is that an assistant surgeon that was in the process of accepting money from my insurance company touched me while I was under anesthesia. That is what the bill was for. But hey, guess what? Some federal legislation was enacted last year to help patients out when they cannot consent to being touched by someone out of their insurance network. These types of bills fall under something called, "surprise billing," and you don't have to put up with it.
      https://www.cms.gov/nosurprises
      I had to make a lot of phone calls to both the surgeon's office and the insurance company and explain my rights and what the maximum out of pocket costs were that I could be liable for. Also had to remind them that it isn't my place to be taking care of all of this and that I was going to escalate things if they could not play nice with one another.
      Quick ending is that I don't have to pay that $7,000+. Advocate, advocate, advocate for yourself no matter how long it takes and learn more about this law if you are ever hit with a surprise bill.

      Some days I feel like an infiltrator... I'm participating in society as a "thin" person. They have no idea that I haven't always been one of them! 🤣

      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!
