I've been looking for new recipes to try. Made Cauliflower "mac" and Cheese with Ham last night. It was good and has a good protein count!
http://kimegetshealthy.blogspot.com/2014/12/recipe-cauliflower-and-cheese-with-ham.html
I was looking at about 100 calories and 11g of protein!
Tonight it was ricotta and spinach topped chicken. Another low cal (like 254 cal and 38g protein for a non sleever portion). Was a little dry, so I need to modify slightly. I asked my hubby to pull it from the oven and he left it in with the door cracked to keep it warm.
Will try in again though.

I am a HUGE fan of spinach--- it blends in with almost anything. I continue to find ways to incorporate veg because it keeps me full on much fewer cals. than protein alone (plus I get sick of just eating meat/chicken/fish.
I make a mean spinach frittata! I am also learning to like salad--- def. was not the case awhile back.

I never liked spinach until I was an adult. Preop I would add it to lasagna and occasionally pizza to sneak it in on the kids. My husband is on Coumadin so I have to be careful how often we have it. It really can be versatile. I also added it to my own scrambled eggs preop and in place of lettuce on burgers, sandwiches, etc.0 -

Ham went down very easy for me. I've never been a big deli meat person, so I've done that once, and since, I just don't have the taste for it. Chicken is iffy, and I've read that to be the case. I was plesantly surprised how "easy" ham was considering it can be dry.
