Hello to all needing the extra nutrition , !

These are rather basic, with no exotic type ingredients . They were in fact given to me by the Nutrition dept here, way long before my cancer, because I have had a strictured esophagus and trouble swallowing long before cancer. 

My doctors knew that my Radiation treatments would do it in for good and they were correct. It is damaged way beyond..... I signed multiple Release forms to absolve them of all liability. We had no choice, because my cancer would not stop...

Next week on August 26th is my next esophageal dilation. I get them Every 4- 8 Weeks,. Otherwise, it Completely obstructs and closes so that even water nor saliva will go down.  The widest he can dilate it to, is 7 Millimeters .   It closes up very fast and I'm left with 2- 5 millimeters most of the time.  Very difficult...

Anyway, I've held onto recipes for years--- here are a few::

    Competition baker

    Thank you and those were merely the first ones I found in my stash!  Not sure if you know this, I competed for years in Baking contests and won a lot.  Now, I still bake in occasion and I get paid by people who give me orders or I give to medical providers, family, etc. I specialize in cheesecakes, and cakes.

    However, I cannot Taste. My R O wrote in his notes that I have 0%  taste out of 100%.

    For instance, I made a layer cake last weekend and I tasted the butter cream frosting ( out of habit) after I made it. Nothing registered at all. Not surprising as my natural tongue is just a memory.

    And yet, I still love to bake and cook for others.  I try to have experiences through theirs ! So, I do still enjoy the process and bringing joy to others with my creations. 

    Speaking of Cheesecake,  here is::

    ---------- *Cheesecake Milkshake----*

    1 Slice of plain Cheesecake

    1/4 cup sliced fresh strawberries

    1/4 cup whole milk

    1/2 cup Vanilla ice cream

    Blend in blender until smooth

    1 ( 12 ounce) serving 

    490 Calories  9 grams Protein

    --------------------------------

     

    --------- Hot Mocha Milk------

    I - 2 Tablespoons Chocolate Syrup ( like Hersheys)

    1/2 teaspoon instant coffee granules ( or more ??)

    1/8 teaspoon cinnamon ( optional)

    3/4 cup whole Milk 

    Whipped cream for topping, with spray can or homemade

    Combine chocolate syrup, instant coffee granules, and cinnamon in heat resistant mug.

    Stir in the milk and heat uncovered in microwave oven for 1 1/2 minutes to 2 1/2 minutes until hot. Do not boil. Top with the whipped cream and enjoy!

    Thanks Crystal

    You still amaze me with your undying attitude and you always have a trick up your sleeve somewhere.
    You must have been quite a baker to compete like that.
