Post here what you are planning to have for dinner and any great snack ideas!

I'm having my version of a "healthy taco salad" w/ lean beef..1/2 cup, lettuce..lots, salsa, 2 TBSP, lite sour cream and 18 whole wheat Tostito chips... today and I think the best snack (I have one every day) are Zone bars! Yum..peanut butter chocolate is amazing!

    We had BLT's tonight. I have chicken legs to make for tomorrow but I have no idea how I should make them. Too cold to grill them.

    Made shrimp fettucini for my daughter, sol and grandkids using fat free 1/2 & 1/2, and low fat velveeta. They ate their's over pasta. I at mine over steamed broccoli rabe. Pasta calories - 210 per cup. Broccoli rabe calories - 25 per cup. Wasn't bad at all. Didn't miss the pasta considering I saved 185 calories. Do I feel good? You betcha!!!!!!!!!!:bigsmile:
  • Baked Pork loin crusted with rosemary, garlic and parm cheese on a bed of homemade pasta, drizzled with homemade vegie ragu. And a few shreds of extra sharp cheddar. About 450 cals.
  • I know this is off topic, but it is very important that we get it done, Please.

    And if everyone gets it done then I can come back and delete this message and stay on topic, YAY!

    1. Please use the same screen name on Skinnyo that you use on MFP or it will make it almost impossible to do a spreadsheet and keep track of everyone with all the different challenge pages.
    2. If you have already set one up, no problem its easy to change your screen name on Skinnyo, go to the ME tab at the top of the page, click on PROFILE, go to DISPLAY NAME and change it to match your MFP name, PLEASE :smile:
  • Dinner tonight was lean turkey, canned tomato, green beans, corn,in the crockpot. Topped with 0% greek yogurt and frsh parsley......lots left over for lunch tomorrow!

    Made black bean burgers last night for the first time and they turned out fantastic. Need to tweak a little because I could definitely get the calories and sodium lower but for around 300 cal the burger was really filling and my meat eater hubby and son loved it too. They had no clue it was beans until I told them. I consider that to be a major win!!!!

    One of my favorite dinners lately has been chicken fajita tacos. I use the whole grain taco shells, grilled fajita chicken and vegetables with a little cheese and even fat free sour cream and salsa. Yummy!!!

    For snacks, either an apple with a little natural peanut butter or pretzel sticks with peanut butter.
