Okay, I admit it – I will not eat tofu. I moved here from Georgia. People from Georgia don’t eat tofu – not even deep fried tofu smothered in cheese with a dipping sauce on the side. I know that tofu is a great meal replacement, but I promise you, I will not eat tofu.
All too often, fried fish, greasy cheese pizza, and pasta with fat laden sauces become the replacements for the meat that Catholics and other religious folks give up on Fridays during Lent. I hope the following ideas will help our
weight loss surgery patients get through Lent with a handful of healthful alternatives.
I like to serve my family meals that include Morningstar Farms products during Lent. Have you tried them? I think they’re great and my family has never noticed the difference between them and “real meat”. I will admit that I am quick to throw away the package lest they see I’m substituting these products in place of meat – teenagers are funny like that.
I am particularly fond of the Morningstar Farms Meal Starters. I use them in place of hamburger or sausage in meals like sloppy joes, chili, spaghetti sauce, and taco salads. I also use the Morningstar Farms veggie steak strips or veggie chicken strips for fajitas, taco salad, and stir fry. We also use the veggie sausage links and a make a breakfast for dinner on Friday evenings.
If you come up with a great dinner idea you’d like to share, please leave me a comment below. I’d love some more ideas from our readers.
