Hey Grandpa, What's for Supper? Part 2

[PhillyDelcoChix]

Nope. It wasn’t my “protein allowed” meal. Stage 4 kidney disease means limiting protein. <sigh>

Oh I’m so sorry.

Why? How in the heck were you supposed to know? It’s all pretty new to me too, so I tend to wisecrack about it. And I’m making up for it tonight with a pork tenderloin! Can’t have potatoes, and can’t have my beloved sauerkraut with it, but I plan to roast some summer squash and carrots, and indulge in a little coleslaw, because cabbage is on my good list. I’m learning as I go here! I probably should have been eating sensibly with or without kidney disease, so now that I’m forced into it, I’m going to make the best of it. (But I’d kill for a Pepsi!!)

@Blooie why is sauerkraut off the good list ?

 

[Blooie]

Too much acid, salt, potassium and phosporus, Sour. And you KNOW I love my sauerkraut...used to open the fridge and grab a spoonful as a snack!

Can you have tomato products?
I love shredded sautéed cabbage with some tomato sauce cooked into it.
Or even just plain sautéed cabbage in olive oil with salt and pepper is damn good too.

Tonight I plan on making chicken cordon bleu, mac and cheese, broccoli, and summer squash.

 

[Pork Pie]

Leftover pizza tonight, but a ragu in the slow-cooker ready for lasagne in a day or two.

 

[Blooie]

Nope, tomatoes are on the “no” list, too. I made Kraut Bierok the other night and it was delicious. If I can keep finding recipes like that, I think I can make this all work. But my kingdom for a Pepsi!!

Tri tip steak and pasta of some sort maybe egg pasta

'Special orders don't upset us' - Princess wanted noodles and cottage cheese so they took the place of the mac and cheese. Also squash had gone bad so I made beets. That's the second or third time that squash has spoiled far to rapidly.
