    First do you have certain foods you are trying to stay away from? Low Carb? Low Fat? Eliminating sugars and salts?

    I have a lot that are really easy (some are chicken) but lots of really easy and lots you can make in advance. But they depend on what you want/can eat. and what types of foods you do like.

    Do you like stuffed cabbage? I make kind of a deconstructed stuffed cabbage using ground turkey and just putting it all in one pot instead of stuffing cabbage leaves. Let me know you you'd like the recipe.

    chilli (vegetarian chili in my case) is definitely high up on the list for me. i even eat it when it's 110F in the middle of the summer. i just crank up the a/c and sweat it out because i love it so much.

    I'm in the same boat. I love chicken. It seems to be the best option. But im so tired of it. Hamburger is aweful in cal and fat. I get those boneless thin cut pork chops I either steam them in a skillet with garlic and onion powder. Or season them the same and bake them in the oven. Both are yummy especially if you like garlic.

    There are so many! But maybe a dark green salad with blue cheese, cranberries, and walnuts. Also black bean and salmon tacos with cilantro and pickled onions.

    My favourite fast day meal (I do the 5:2) is a couple of low fat sausages, tons of salad with low fat dressing and a splodge of low fat mayo. Comes in at around 210 calories if u buy the right sausages, very tasty and with lots of salad u get a good amount of 5 a day!

    Here are two of my favorites.

    During the weekdays, I bring my lunch to work. The night before, I cook a piece of salmon on the grill. About 15 minutes witht he skin side down. I put that in fridge and eat it cold the next day over some Quinoa. Simply Superior makes a steamable microwave package of Quinoa with sea salt and olive oil that has 400 calories in a bag. The salmon can vary, but generally it's about 160 calories for a quarter pound.

    The next meal I am a huge fan of is salad! I start with spinch, add cherry tomatos, green peppers, mushrooms, and cucumbers, then I put some low-fat cottage cheese on top and use just a dash of lite Italian dressing.

    Any white fish (defrosted frozen is fine) dredged lightly in flour and pan fried with a scant amount of oil (I use an oil sprayer). Serve with Salsa Verde (http://www.nigella.com/recipes/view/salsa-verde-1149) and boiled potatoes with a cucumber salad. You can make the salsa verde in big batches and freeze it. Also good on other meats.

    A small steak with green salad and oven fries. For the oven fries cut up potatoes (you can leave the skins on), microwave for 3-5 minutes. Place in an oiled oven tray and spray with oil, or just toss in a little oil if you don't have a sprayer. Bake at 230C for 20 minutes, turning halfway.

    Sushi... but I don't have it much, too expensive, lol.

    Seriously though, we alternate between chicken, fish, chicken sausage, low fat hamburger and lean beef, pretty much. And I eat a lot of eggs. And on days I don't feel like having much meat, I make protein pancakes.
