I am going to try to eat lean protein, fruits and vegetables. Does anyone have good ideas. I think I might get sick of grilled chicken and pork and streamed broccoli. Thank you

I have grilled chicken breast with cajun spicing, a salad made up of iceburg lettuce, capsicum, onion and the slightest bit of low fat fetta cheese with balsamic vinegar dressing! Its a treasure.0
