,

Would you mind if I sent these recipes to another on line group to be included

in the " cookbook " page? Another group I frequent is starting a cookbook page on

their site and we are all sending in recipes. I have sent a few but these sound

really good. Let me know if it is ok..... The other site is

http://groups.msn.com/cysticfibrosis2chat The recipes have started going up if

anyone wants to check it out also they have good boards and other pages.....

Site for hi-calorie recipes, and a few of my own

http://personal.nbnet.nb.ca/normap/cfrecipes.htm

I myself have used many of these recipes--I also make him one of my own

things--SUPER hi-calorie fudge bars:

Take one packet of Chocolate Scandishake (can also use vanilla, and just add

cocoa or Nestle Quik to it--depending on how sweet you like it), mix it with

about 1/2 cup powdered milk, 1/2 cup half and half, and 1/2 cup milk. You can

also add another cup of milk and a packet of chocolate pudding--makes for a

creamier bar. Then I pour them into popsicle molds and freeze them--Cody LOVES

them! I have also made them using vanilla scandishake and mixed in mandarin

oranges; vanilla Scandishake along with pineapple juice, crushed pineapple, a

little coconut, and coconut milk (mmmm--tried those ones--YUM!); and strawberry

scandishake with crushed strawberries in syrup. These go over VERY well, and

don't last long.

Here's a good recipe for hi-cal mini cupcakes:

1 box Pillsbury Butter Recipe Chocolate cake mix

1-1/4 cups water

1/2 cup butter

3 eggs

1/3 pkg Chocolate Scandishake

Mix and bake as usual. Each mini cupcake (should make about 48) will have 70

calories. Sprinkle with a little powdered sugar or put frosting on.

Scandipharm also has a recipe book for Scandishake--I can't find mine at the

moment (it's probably in my cabinet), but you can probably contact them for it.

It has lots of great ideas in it. They also make another product called

Scandical, which is a tasteless shake-on powder you add to drinks or food for

more calories. Cody didn't mind it, but I kept forgetting to use it! Another

idea is to take the Boost pudding and put it over bananas--Cody's favorite

snack!!

If your kids like cheese crackers, you can take cheddar cheese and melt it in

the microwave until it gets " crispy " --about 1/4 cup of cheese takes a minute or

so. My kids all love these!!

I have more ideas, but I'm going to stop for now and go watch a movie with my

hubby! Later, all!

Hi everyone,

Thanks for all of the great advice. We did get some samples of

Scandishake and Scandical today at our clinic visit. Zach had

gained a few ounces and one inch in height. They were pleased that

he was growing even though he hadn't gained much. We are trying

Pancrecarb enzymes for a while to see if that helps his loose stools.

The nutritionist did mention trying rice milk if we had problems

finding lactaid whole milk. We are going to try that but I know

there is no guarantee that he will drink it. It is worth a try.

She said very few people are allergic to rice milk. She said the

Boost pudding was good and to keep using that. I have lots of new

ideas to try now besides hot dogs and french fries and that makes me

feel much better.
