Does anyone have any ideas? I'm struggling to think of some! Chicken and pork can only get you so far!

Try using lean ground turkey instead of ground beef for some recipes. You can make stuffed peppers with ground turkey and instead of rice use quinoa or riced cauliflower as a substitute. You can make healthy burrito bowls or chili with ground turkey as your protein. Another hack if you want breaded chicken or pork is to crush up pork rinds rather than use breadcrumbs and cook in an air fryer.2

I have been loving this for lunch without any rice, just on its own. The serving size is 1.5 cups so it has been working great for me

IF you go on pinterest, they have some amazing low cal recipes you can find. I made a shrimp with zoodles in a white wine sauce and it was amazing. If I recall, less then 200 cals per serving. (I am sure I ate two servings for a meal.)
JUST a warning. Pinterest can become addicting.... so many ideas on everything!3 -
I use youtube for ideas, so many people post videos of meal prep for multiple meals. Try searching "low calorie meals" and usually in the video info part, there is a list of all the recipes (with links) so you don't have to "play..pause" and write it all down.
Tonight for dinner, I am making cheeseburger salads. https://www.skinnykitchen.com/recipes/skinny-cheeseburger-salad/
Made tex mex casserole last night (I used chickpea pasta and ground turkey) https://ourfarmerhouse.com/tex-mex-casserole/
Monday evening I did a skinny fried rice, I think this one was my favorite so far this week!

Hope these ideas help!1 -
Learn to use spices. You could have a different chicken with vegetables every day if you run out of other ideas.0
