Looking for great recipes, low-carb and HIGH protein
If any of you out there have a few favorite recipes that you have used once you were on "Regular food" again, I would love to see them. I am compiling a recipe binder for such items.
Thanks!

I went to our local library and check out some low carb cook books. I am trying to adhear to the same kind of diet...low carb, high protein.
One that I tried recently is a chicken satay recipe... here it is.
3 whole boneless chicken breasts, skin removed
1/2 cup roasted peanuts
1 teaspoon mild curry powder
1/4 cup soy sauce
2 tablespoons dark sesame oil
pinch of chili powder
Preheat oven to 325. Cut the chicken into 1/2 inch chunks and arrange them on the skewers evenly. Rest the skewers on a baking sheet covered with foil. In a nonstick skillet roast peanuts over medium heat until fragrant. let them cook a little and chop them coarse.
Put the nuts in a bowl with remaining ingredients, stir well and pour over chicken skewers. Bake 10 minutes and serve.

This recipe came from a book called "The Low-Carb Cookbook" by Fran McCullough. I like this book a lot! She talks a lot about how to stock your pantry and lots of other hints and medical type information...stuff for maintaining a low carb diet and why it is so beneficial.

Thanks for the recipe. I actually found some by doing a search for bariactric recipes also. Still looking for more. Just want to have some viable options once I can start on real food again! I don't want to get to the boredome stage and then do something stupid! LOL
Thanks again!
