I find trouble getting protein often, and keeping it lean. there is fish, and tofu but one can't live on those alone. So what are some of your favorite non poultry dinners that are healthy and clean? I need some dinner inspiration.

    Well, there are hundreds of different types of fish and other seafoods, with many different types of preparations.

    I love shrimp and scallops.

    I do love Paula Deans meat loaf. And that is exactly what I was looking for more. Not proteins but protein based dishes. Plus pork isn't very lean.

    I typically only way chicken breast, round steak, fish and shrimp. Im not a huge fan of meat. I don't care for tofu. But i do drink whey protein shakes and eat foods high in proteins.

    I do a stir fry type thing with ground beef. Here's my recipe. It's really good

    Brown a pound of ground beef w/ 3 chopped up garlic cloves and a tbsp of sesame oil

    Drain about half of the fat, add 1/4 cup soy sauce 1/4 c brown sugar and 1/2 tsp of chopped up ginger. Also sprinkle in some crushed red pepper to your taste. Simmer a couple minutes to incorporate ingredients. Serve over steamed rice and top with green onion.

    I make that with literally any other type of meat as well. I usually make it with chicken but since you don't like poultry...

    Also I add in other veggies as well. Just depends on what I have around.

    Pork tenderloin has become a new favorite of mine. Salt, pepper, garlic and bake in the oven till it hits 145 it.

    I made spaghetti with meatballs last night. I prefer that over just browning the meat and making a meat sauce... It's easier to control my meat-to-pasta ratio.

    Me and your sister should talk. I love fellow tofu eaters



    Hesn92 those are both awesome ideas.

    I just had a beef stir fry with pineapple, cucumber and bell peppers in a black bean sauce. Delish!
