Hey, folks-

Totally don't want to stir the MF pot at all, but can we all just be careful about what recipes we're posting here?

QuirkyIQ, I am thrilled to see you've had such success here, and I'm happy you've come over to our forum, but I am concerned about the recipes you've been posting here and calling MF compliant. Many of the items in these recipes are not following the MF plan in its ...

2 lg. red bell peppers
2 teas. tomato paste
2 teas. balsamic vinegar
1 clove garlic
1/8 to 1/4 teas. ground red pepper

Preheat broiler. Core and remove seeds from each red pepper and cut, vertically, into 6-8 pieces. Arrange peppers, skin up, on foil-lined baking sheet. Using your palm, press down on peppers to flatten them out. Broil the peppers about 3” from source of heat until skin chars and turns black. Remove peppers ...

Use this as a substitute for sour cream and/or cream cheese. It’s easy to make and tastes fabulous!

3 cups plain, non-fat yogurt
herbs, spices, garlic, etc. (optional)

Spoon the yogurt into a coffee filter (or cheesecloth-lined strainer) and place over a bowl. Refrigerate, covered, for at least 5 hours (soft consistency, like sour cream), or 2 days (firm consistency, like cream cheese). Enjoy with MF crackers or veggies. Experiment with herbs and spices for ...

4 servings

1/4 cup rice vinegar
4 - 8 teas. sesame oil
4 teas. splenda

Shake ingredients together and adjust all proportions to taste. Pour over one head shredded cabbage, I prefer Savoy cabbage, or one bag store-bought pre-shredded cabbage sans carrots). Mix together and allow to marinate for at least 2 hours.

He ya'll! I have a new recipe I want to share.

2 1/2 pounds pork tenderloin

Onion powder
1 4 ounce bottle Salsa Picante de Chile Habanero (The brand I used was El Yucateco) {This stuff is a BRIGHT GREEN color}
1 5 ounce bottle Chipotle Tabasco sauce

Place the tenderloin in a crockpot, dutch oven, or stew pot and cover with water. ...

I know it's been posted, but I thought I would revisit it just in case someone missed it.

I made them so easily again today and they were so good I had to share. I might just have these once in a while instead of my L & G as a meal. Definite good breakfast, though.


All I did was mix 2 packets of oatmeal (so I could have some later on, too) with a ...

Use a potato masher to mash the cauliflower before serving. It's like eating a spicy tomato soup with rice. Or allow the soup to cool, puree in a food processor, reheat and serve as a "creamy" soup.

1-3/4 lbs. (28 oz) undrained canned tomatoes, diced or crushed
2 cups prepared vegetable or beef bouillon
1 chopped onion
1/2 tsp. garlic powder
2 tsp. curry powder
1/8 tsp. ground cumin ...

I had my L&G for afternoon meal 'cause somewhere today I am off by an hour and Dh had to have an earlier dinner 'cause he has practice at 6pm. Anyway I tried the recipe here for tuna patties. I think Sidrah posted it. It was pretty good considering I dont like hot tuna. Dh and I (our daughter too) liked them.

Seriously tho, 6oz of tuna is A LOT of tuna. I opened two ...

Does anyone have a good MF approved recipe for mashed cauliflower?
I used to use laughing cow cheese in mine, but now don't know how to make it since starting MF.
Thanks!!!

I know it's summer, but I still love to have tea in the evening (Decaff only!!). I tried this new blueberry tea I found at the grocery store. It's not a medifast meal. Anway, you wouldn't think it would be this tasty, but it was SO delicious (especially with a few packets of splenda/equal). It was like candy and it was so satisfying!

I HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend this!!
