Black bean spaghetti is pretty darn good



Recommended Posts

I'm in the soft food stage trying to make sure I get in my Protein, so I tried this black bean spaghetti I found on Amazon. Note: It's black SOY Beans, not regular black beans. But I'm really enjoying it. And 2oz is 25g of protein and only 19g of carbs.

I will have to try that. Sounds good. Thanks.

Speaking of black Beans. My husband stopped at Taco Bell last night and asked if I wanted anything, so I got a side of their black beans (50 cal) and I actually really liked them lol.

I've used a similar bean-based fettuccine made on mung Beans (50g gives 20g protein), and it's totally acceptable with a Tomato based sauce. Makes a nice change when I'm in the mood for a pasta-style meal.

At Taco Bell, you can have their Power Protein bowls. Either steak or chicken. You have to have them remove the cheese and rice, but you can have everything else. I LOVE them. If you have it with chicken, it's 240 calories. If you have it with steak, it's 260 calories. You can have everything else (I can't have the lettuce, tho, because it doesn't sit right in my stomach. But if you're ok with it, you can have it). You don't have to take anything else out, and it's SOOOOO good!!!!!! Oh, and you can add onions for 0 calories and jalapenos for an extra 5 calories. Anything else adds too many calories, but you can add that stuff, if you want it, and not have to worry. The stuff that comes with it already (besides the cheese and rice that has to be removed) is steak or chicken, avocado ranch sauce, tomatoes, reduced fat sour cream, guacamole, black beans, and lettuce.

      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!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
