I saw this from Betty Crocker, pretty standard but tasty side dish or main
dish depending on time of day eaten. :-)


2 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 large onion, chopped (1 cup)
1 head cauliflower, separated into florets
1 teaspoon salt
2 cups milk
4 eggs
5 slices bacon, chopped, crisply cooked
2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives
3/4 cup shredded pizza cheese blend

1 Heat oven to 350°F. Spray 3-quart casserole with cooking spray.

2 In large skillet, heat butter and oil over medium heat. Add onion; cook 2
to 3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until soft. Add cauliflower and 1/2
teaspoon of the salt. Cook 3 to 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until
cauliflower begins to brown. Spoon mixture into casserole.

3 In medium bowl, beat milk, eggs and remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt with
whisk. Stir in bacon and chives. Reserve 2 tablespoons of the cheese; stir
remaining cheese into egg mixture. Pour evenly over cauliflower mixture.
Sprinkle with reserved 2 tablespoons cheese.

4 Bake uncovered 35 to 45 minutes or until knife inserted in center comes
out clean.

Looks yummy, but then anything with cheese and bacon is yummy to me.
Heck anything with cauliflower is, too, although I just can't get into
mashed cauliflower as a sub for potatoes. I'd rather have the
cauliflower undisguised.

Looks Good...will put it aside for now. Had a gallbladder flare up that
lasted about a week and a half...and a trip to emergency. Seeing a Dr Monday
about getting this thing out...don't want to go through anymore flare-ups.

This one was like I had one then had chills and a fever for three days then
another flare-up chest, neck , back pains, yellow skin, I was on my 4th day
of pain when I finally told hubby it was time to go to the emergency room.
They said if I stayed they still wouldn't be able to do the surgery for a
couple of days...so I chose to take the meds home(they had already given me
a Dilaudid and morphine in the vein) So felt good enough to go home...bad
idea, the first day I was ok slept allot because of the drugs, the next day
I took Dilaudid and vicodin...two hours apart from each other, the next day
another flare-up happened , it lasted all night then finally eased a
bit...still had side pain but no more tummy and chest pain, lots of
nausea...no vomiting TG. Finally got an appointment with a surgeon. Today I
feel good, had some chicken noodle soup....I have barely eaten anything the
last week and a half...a piece of toast daily...maybe a couple tablespoons
of cereal an egg. I was scared to eat anything with fat. My appointment is
Monday hopefully we can get a date for the surgery soon...don't want anymore
of these kind of flare-ups. When I was in emergency they took my BG, it was
155...she said that was good...I told her for me it was not. I hadn't eaten
that day and I told her I like my numbers below 110. She looked at me like I
was nuts. I think it was elevated because of pain and my liver may have
dumped. I also went off of my metformin because of the nausea I was having.
My numbers are still good.

My friend had her gallbladder out last year. It just all of a sudden began
acting up on her. She found that she could eat no fat at all. She was
doing well while waiting for the surgery until one day when she decided to
eat a donut. She said it was one of the worst decisions she ever made.

My dad who has had his gallbladder out, says the worst foods for him are
animal fats. Like eggs, meat, cheese...

Two of my friends have had their gallbladders out, and fats don't bother
them at all, but did before they were removed. It's an individiual thing
there too.

A friend of mine had problems with fat for up to a year after hers was
removed. Literally fatty foods went straight through her. Half an hour
after her favourite KFC and she was on the toilet. I remember my
daughter's partner had to take some kind of enzyme tablet after he was
stabbed in the pancreas and acquired type 1 diabetes. Same deal, he
would be sick after meals (not necessarily fatty) if he didn't take
them. Over time her stopped using the tablets and has no problems. I
think if one suffers symptoms with foods after certain organs are
damaged or removed then the body adapts to the new condition eventually.

My dad has to take pills for his pancreas. He gets sick if he doesn't. And
he also gets sick if he has liquor which he didn't before all these problems
began.
