Potato salad is an easy-chew option for those days when you are struggling to get food down.  Stays fresh in the fridge for several days.  It works very well for a lunch meal away from home.

Ingredients:

  • 1 lb. potato (or 1 giant idaho potato) (7g, 283c)
  • 2 hard boiled eggs [12g, 156c]
  • 1 ounce sour pickles (or one large pickle)  (0g,5c)
  • 2 heaping tablespoons mayonnaise (0g, 180c)
  • salt & pepper to taste
If you are after RNY weight loss surgery and using a baby spoon for meals, then you will be able having all the tastes on each spoonful if you chop everything into tiny bits before tossing the salad.

Directions:

  • Boil the unpeeled potato in water until cooked. It might take about 45 minutes.  Allow the potato to cool on a towel or cutting board.  Peel the skin.
  • Chop the potatoes, eggs, and pickles into tiny bits.
  • Sprinkle with salt and pepper, and toss with mayonnaise.
  • Serve warm, room temperature, or cold.
  • Refrigerate leftovers.

 Yields: about 5 portions at 4 ounces each. 3.8 grams protein, 125 calories

IDEA: If you are going to take the time to boil the potato, then double it and also consider the Hungarian Rakott Krumpli recipe.
