So these are some frozen treats I made. I have about 3-4 and have been great in the summer heat. 


The only problem is I can't work out how to stop them from crystalising. 


I used some Petit Filous Frubes and reduced price fruit from the supermarket. 


Put them in an ice cube tray, covered in the fromage frais, and froze. 


They are yummy, but as I said, they crystalise a little. I may have to cover in clingfilm next time to see if that helps. 

Stuffed Hot Dogs

I haven't posted in a while, I've had a lack of ideas and things that fit a bariatric diet. So I've decided to just go with the flow. I'm posting what I can eat, it's up to you to decide if you can eat it too.

These are more of a treat.. it's BBQ season and they are great for it. I don't have a BBQ, so I did these in a pan. I think next time I will wrap them in tinfoil and put them in the oven, or if I ever get the George Grill I'm after then I will do them on there.

Get some nice thick hot dogs, frankfurter types. I want to try it with Bratwurst too, and a little Currywurst sauce. Slice them, creating pockets in the sausages and then stuff with a good meltable cheese. I used Cathedral City, because it's yummy.

You can use onions or whatever you like with hot dogs to cover the cheese with, I used Sauerkraut and some mustard, but make sure that the cheese is fully covered by the other filling, otherwise it will leak out when you cook them.
Wrap it in bacon, securing with cocktail sticks, then BBQ, fry or cook in what ever way you want. When I fry I don't use any oils, I use the fats that come from whatever I am cooking.

I managed about one and a half sausages, you can serve with salad or coleslaw for those not on a bariatric diet, or even in a bun. Very yummy.
