Please stop…I beg of you…

LauraMacNCheese

The quasi-food recipes are the herpes of MFP…there is an outbreak almost daily.

Mashed up banana + egg does NOT equal a pancake…it is an omelet…a nasty, fruit-based omelet.

Mashed up banana + oats does NOT equal a cookie…it is some weird form of oatmeal.

Mashed up cauliflower does NOT equal a pizza crust…it is an abomination.

Adding buffalo sauce to cauliflower does NOT equal a buffalo wing…this too, is an abomination.

Please, please stop trying to make junk food healthy…if I want to eat a buffalo wing, I want a piece of chicken slathered in tangy BBQ sauce. If I want a pancake, I want something I can smother with syrup. If I want pizza, I want it to be on a crust made of gluten-filled goodness. If I want a cookie, I will drown a double-stuffed Oreo in a glass of milk (real milk…from a cow).

Splurging once in a blue moon is not a sin. I will not go to hell for it. I will go to hell for finding wildly inappropriate things hysterically funny.

If I squeeze a cauliflower and it drips, can I log that as water?

I made this awesome taco once though that I"ll share with you but other than this taco I totally agree wtih you.

What I did was instead of using a corn tortilla because corn killed the Mayans and obviously all grains are fatal, I used a lettuce leaf. And then since beef is harmful because of that study by those chinese people I used clumps of cinnamon (it's really boosting on your metbolisms) but I clumped it up to really look like beef. And taco sauce is only like 10 calories if you use a syringe and just drip it on, so I added REAL TACO SAUCES and then some lettuce and omg it was just like eating a taco.

thanks add me for motivation.

I don't understand..if this is not hurting you or you don't wish to enjoy such..why complain why not just pass by the post. To each their own you know..

I for one am THANKFUL for the different options and personally love my cauliflower pizza crust among other variations.

I do allow myself to indulge however I prefer to choose a healtheir option to provide myself for better lifestyle habits if I can. I don't do "diets" - I don't believe they work but changing how I eat will last me a lifetime.

But that's just my 2 cents.

Buffalo on boneless skinless chicken breast sauce is a yummy way to eat a boneless chicken breast, but it's not a "hot wing".

This thread is coeliac-cist.

:P

IMo, there's nothing wrong with making your own "junk food" - it inspires creativity, can be eaten at a great volume/calorie, and can be palatable for people with allergies.
But it does become a bit of a nuisance when listed as a "healthy" alternative. Lower calorie does not equal healthy - end of story.

Each to their own; I'll still enjoy both store bought and homemade ice cream, because sometime I CBF prepping anything, and sometimes I'm in a creative cooking mood.

^^ This. Thank you OP. You're doing the world a great service, however, I do think that sometimes hamburger buns can be substituted:

I have to agree with you but would not have posted due to my fear of getting flamed.

I also hate when people bump up these recipes without really knowing if they're any good.

Amen....anytime someone writes that " it tastes just like " I tune out...No....it doesn't!!! I did kinda like the califlower crust is ok but it wasn't low cal by any means...I could've had 1/3 of my Amy's pizza for the same calories & less fat!

Thanks! Now I know what to make for dinner tonight. The hubs can't accuse me of sabotage if I serve this. His metabolic rate will shoot through the roof!

Not that I'm all that different then the people dipping their forks in salad dressing and coming up with other weird ways to reduce calories since I eat low carb but still, this made me laugh.

This is great!

Maybe I could tolerate peoples' weird food strategies...

...if they'd stop infecting the MFP database.

(And yes, you "net carbs" and "mathematically impossible macros" people, I'm looking at you. :explode: )

I have made the oat/banana cookies and loved them. I have not tried the pancakes, but a lot of people have and seemed to like them. If you are not interested, just don't look at the recipes...

True true. Also, if quotation marks have to be used in the name, it isn't worth eating.

The most disapointing thing to me is clicking a recipe that sounds like a yummy desert and it is nothing but splenda, sugar free maple syrup, some weird egg substitute in a carton and other sugar free abominations.

I made the Chunky Monkey cookies-- 3 bananas wasted, the whole batch in the trash. Yuck! Glad to finally say it!

stephdeeable

I totally agree with this post...except I think the banana/egg pancakes taste super good...plus I add peanut butter, walnuts and chocolate chips...so they end up being 600 calories...

But I'll die before eating cauliflower crust pizza.
