Culinarily Cornered
I love to cook, but I'm feeling *extremely* cornered by the dietary requests of my family (myself included).
There are other "suggestions" that have been planted in my mind by such triggers as uneaten plates of food and physical pain that I also have to take in mind, which leave me with the options of Baked Chicken or Baked Pork Chops with a side of Mashed Potatoes and Gravy, plus peas and/or corn. Any derivation from this menu results in plates of uneaten food and/or us being in physical pain from getting food "stuck". Such is the life of a Lap Band recipient I guess :/
BUT I FEEL SO BORED WITH FOOD!!!
Variations that I can slip in occasionally which at least two out of three people will eat: Spaghetti, Salad, Tacos, Chili.
Bored, bored, BORED!!!
- Can't be a Casserole because Crystal can't not eat all of it.
- Can't be rice, noodles or bread as a main ingredient; rice is *occasionally* acceptable as long as it is on the side and no ine is expected to actually eat it.
- No meats that have the potential to be dry, gristly, fatty or tough.
- Nothing deep-fried, and even pan frying is to be avoided.
- Nothing that involves Mayonnaise.
