One of my BIG weaknesses is PIZZA! I found a healthier lower calorie version
Pound out a chicken breast...cover with a couple tablespoons of pizza sauce...top with some mozzarella cheese and bake in the oven @350...usually about 1/2 hr-40 min.
You could add some other toppings if you like...

Another absolute favorite of mine is stuffed spaghetti squash...
Oven roast a spaghetti squash...I cut the spaghetti squash in half, scrape the seeds out drizzle with olive oil...sprinkle Mrs Dash and bake...while that's cooking I brown some ground turkey when the turkey is cooked I add a cup of fresh baby spinach...and set aside... once the squash is done I scrape the squash leaving the strands in the shell of the squash...add the turkey/spinach and top with fresh diced plum tomatoes and some mozzarella...put back in the oven until the cheese melts.
YUM!!!

Easy Tilapia
1 frozen2 oz tilapia filet
2 TBSP of flour
1 TBSP olive oil
Heat olive oil in pan, coat frozen filet with flour, fry it on each side 3-4 minutes.
It comes out flaky and juicy. I use spelt flour and it comes out to 290 calories. It is a quick and easy way to cook fish.0 -
CHEESY CAULIFLOWER BREADSTICKS
Serves: 8
INGREDIENTS
4 cups of riced cauliflower (about 1 large head of cauliflower)
4 eggs
2 cups of mozzarella cheese (I used a Tex Mex blend because that's all I had)
3 tsp oregano
4 cloves garlic, minced
salt and pepper to taste
1 to 2 cups mozzarella cheese (for topping)
INSTRUCTIONS
Preheat oven to 425 F degrees. Prepare 2 pizza dishes or a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Make sure your cauliflower is roughly chopped in florets. Add the florets to your food processor and pulse until cauliflower resembles rice.
Place the cauliflower in a microwavable container and cover with lid. Microwave for 10 minutes. Place the microwaved cauliflower in a large bowl and add the 4 eggs, 2 cups of mozzarella,oregano, garlic and salt and pepper. Mix everything together.
Separate the mixture in half and place each half onto the prepared baking sheets and shape into either a pizza crust, or a rectangular shape for the breadsticks.
Bake the crust (no topping yet) for about 25 minutes or until nice and golden. Don't be afraid the crust is not soggy at all. Once golden, sprinkle with remaining mozzarella cheese and put back in the oven for another 5 minutes or until cheese has melted.
Slice and serve.
NOTES
If you do not have a microwave, I’d recommend cooking the cauliflower first either in your oven or on the stovetop and then ricing it. Easiest would be to steam it and then ricing it.0 -
That sounds amazing Cindy!0

Ms. S - That looks really good.0

Yummy Ms_smartypants. But I can't eat shrimp or prawns anymore because of allergies
We have ostrich farms here Karen so it makes for a very cheap substitute for lamb as well and yes, it is very high in protein and tasty too because it is a game bird. My main meats are ostrich, lamb and chicken. I don't like pork much and find beef quite bland unless it steak cuts i.e. fillet, sirloin or medallions.0 -
That's great I should look into Ostrich farms here. I never gave it much thought. Is it cheaper then your chicken?0
