I'm heading to the grocery this afternoon and am wanting to try at least one new recipe this week for dinner. I use alot of ground turkey in my cooking, as well as chicken. We also usually have some type of fish once a week. But seriously, there are only so many turkey burgers, turkey spaghetti, grilled chicken, and oven-baked tillapia one can stomach! I love veggies and could live without meat, but I have to really doctor up the veggies to get the hubby to eat them.
Any ideas on a nutritional dinner that won't take all day to prepare?

Homemade pizza with tortillas for crust and low fat cheeses.
That great taco salad recipe that SoupNazi put up. http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/35736-taco-salad-made-over
Experiment with asian cusine! I made some GREAT orange chicken (not breaded, and grilled instead of fried) the other night and had a whole bunch for only 250 cals plus veggies!0 -
tacos using ground turkey ... my fave!0

Chicken parmesan! (the "light" version)
grill the chicken without breading it, then top it with your favorite tomato sauce and lowfat mozzarella - serve with 'Smart Choice' or wheat pasta.... Yum!
What about a stir-fry type meal? (with brown rice)
are you against using other meat?? There's plenty more you can make with pork loin or lean cuts of beef.- why limit yourself to ground turkey, fish and chicken?0 -
Since my husband has a slightly higher than normal cholesterol level and a heart-related birth defect, we try to avoid pork and eat very little beef. But we do eat beef in moderation. He is a meat and potatoes fella, and going without the food you have always loved can be misery!
Thanks to everyone for the great recipe ideas! I will definitely be trying them out.
Here's to a healthy week!0
