I need your help!! My mother is hosting a jewelry party at ther house this saturday and she is serving little finger foods and drinks. Well, I am the only person who has to watch what they eat but I also want to eat! Does anyone have any ideas? What can I make that I can eat, that is basically easy for me to get down but can also be tasty for everyone else?? I had thought about a 7-layer dip (fat free ingredients!) and not eating chips with it...cheese tray...raw vegetables, etc....but then I found a recipe for honey-ginger chicken bites that sounds so tasty but I know it would get stuck!!! I don't know...can you please help!!!! :omg: .....And how about an idea for a snack for a my 2 hour flight to Chicago? Any ideas on that would be great!

This is a fantastic hors d’oeuvre! This recipe is from Paula Deen, and she loves mayonnaise.

Everyone loved these -- I hope you do! 2 large onions, cut into rings 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil 1 loaf white bread 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese 1 teaspoon worcestershire sauceseasoning salt, to taste black pepper, to taste red pepper flakes, to taste paprika, to taste mayonnaise, to taste

I don't really have any recipe ideas, but I wanted to mention that you might want to take yogurt or something like that on the plane. I get pretty tight when I fly, and can't eat a large variety of things up in the air.

Well, I am just watching what I eat. Making sure that I don't eat something that I am going to regret later because it won't go down! Worst feeling ever! :cry So, I don't eat alot of bread, fried stuff, pasta, any meat without some type of sauce or gravy...etc. As far as counting calories and fat grams...I don't do it. I figure if I can only get 1/3 of it down then the calories don't really matter. Not sure if that is a bad way to think but my life is too hectic to read everything I buy or research it. I think I am going to do a veggie tray or a seven layer dip...I figured with the 7 layer dip everything on it is soft (beans, sour cream, guacamole, tomato, cheese, olives and salsa) and it can be made healthy by making it with fat-free or low-cal stuff. I just know that since I got my fill a week ago that I can really feel the restriction and I don't want to be miserable. I can usually have a couple of scrambled eggs and a sausage in the morning for breakfast and even that is getting hard to get down. And I only had a small fill but it made such an impact! :omg: But that's a good thing...I won't want to eat all that crap I had before for the pure fear of it getting stuck or sliming! Yuck!
Well, maybe I will just sit back and down some wine and cheese and buy me some jewels! :clap2:
