No nonsense, quick, easy recipes
Okay, so I used to love cooking! Now, I don't really have time to be chopping fresh veggies and stuff. I'll start with an easy dinner that made me appreciate healthy eating on a time budget.
Salmon
Butter
Eggs
Frozen broccoli
Lemon pepper
Heat up oil in pan
Place broccoli in microwave for 4-5 minutes
Put salmon skin side down in hot pan
Season salmon with lemon pepper and butter
When salmon half cooked, put a lid on it
Cook an overmedium fried egg
Place pat of butter in cooked broccoli
Take out salmon, top with egg, and there ya go!
32 g protein, 375 calories! Keto friendly, even though I'm not keto.
Breakfast
Scrambled or fried eggs + toast is my usual, maybe leftover oatmeal if I've got any
Maybe an omelet with cheese and parsley
Nothing creative here
Lunch
Turkey or ham sandwich usually, or leftover oatmeal

2 Tbs Chives
1 medium Tomato (cut into chunks)
2 hefty cups Spinach
1 slice Cheese (I like pepper jack but anything works)
*1Tbs each of Prechopped garlic and onion if I remember
Cut the chicken into chunks and throw it into a pan (I use cast iron)
Add chives and paprika when it's cooked 50%
Add tomatoes, spinach, *onions, *garlic, when it's cooked 90%
Add cheese when its cooked 100% and let it melt all over.

Another one I've been eating a lot recently
1 cup plain chobani yogurt
1 packet light tuna in water (2 servings in 1 packet)

Carbs: 47g (or less again depending on size of apple)0 -
Cal of diced heats of palm, keep the vinagarette as salad dressing, cut in tomatoes, celery, cumbersome, peppers, onion, really anything you have for a fresh colourful salad that can last all week
Sometimes I cut chicken or mango in
Coriander fresh is great
Really whatever u have around0 -
Sounds good! I'm loving anything with cheese, and the salad sounds good with artichoke hearts .
A yummy breakfast, only bad thing is, lacks protein
PB & Choc Oats
Steel cut oats
2-3 packs of splenda per medium bowl
Pinch of salt
Hershey's Unsweetened cocoa powder (generous)
PB2 (generous)
