    www.skinnytaste.com

    I LOVE this site. I have made nearly 50 - 60 items off this site, and I have not had one fail me yet!

    Some of my favorites:
    Chicken Rolotini
    Corn Salsa
    Barbacoa Beef
    Shredded chicken (BBQ & Buffalo style). I make some plain too to make light chicken salad.
    Zuccini Boats
    Chicken Enchaladas

    I love a nice mixed green salad with salmon on top and pour over that some of my homemade low fat dill dressing or other light dressing. I also like to use cut up chicken breasts if I'm out of salmon. I eat this at least 3 to 4x's a week. LOVE IT!!

    Breakfast: Oatmeal cooked with unsweetened almond milk, flaxseed, chia seed, apple sauce, and sliced banana. Topped with cinnamon, agave nectar, raisins, and slivered almonds.
    Lunch: Spinach, cucumber, sprouts, avocado, tomato, and roasted red pepper hummus on whole grain bread. Add feta if desired. Celery and carrots or homemade baked sweet potato chips on the side.
    Dinner: Spinach/Spring Mix, dried cranberry, toasted walnuts, celery, and sliced gala apple salad with fat-free raspberry vinaigrette. Add feta if desired. If you want to get real fancy throw in some sliced jicama.

    All easy, all amazing, all healthy.

    Favorite Healthy Meals:

    Breakfast
    1.) Whole wheat waffle w/half cup berries and two tsp of SF Syrup
    2.) Bagel Thin (or half of a bagel if I feel like it) light cream cheese and a slice of tomato with salt and pepper
    3.) Scrambled egg (or egg whites if I have them ready) with whatever veggies are left in the fridge (broccoli, spinach, mushrooms, etc)

    Lunch
    1.) Spinach, nuts and berries with a little feta and balsamic vinagrette
    2.) Any kind of creative sandwich; Tuna and Artichoke (no mayo) little oil, little bit of herbs. Or hummus, fetta, cucumbers, roasted peppers and spinach.

    Dinner
    1.) Good meat, roasted or grilled with super fresh veggies (the combos are endless) I am loving roasted brussel sprouts with balsamic right now.
    2) I love a good Mediterranean restaurant, so I usually get the fish and have a salad and maybe a little rice.

    All these look so good! I'm writing them all down for my shopping list.

    Sweet potatoes... Never had them before, to be honest never fancied them but I will try those sweet potato chips for sure :)

    Bagels! How in the name of all that is good did I forget about bagels!

    Isn't it weird, all the food you forget about when you're in a food rut? :)

    What I'm making tonight ... Tuna bake ... Tinned Tuna (in springwater) + Veggies (all sorts to taste ... Spinach, carrot, peas, etc) + Sour Cream mixed together, top with grated cheese and lob in oven until golden.

    If you want to lose some calories then sub in some chopped tomatoes for some/all of the sour cream. I won't though ;)

    I used to bulk it out with pasta but don't feel the need these days, I'd add some pre-microwaved sliced sweet potatoes if inclined.

    Sweet potatoes good ... I used to hate the texture but have grown to like them ...

    I make it in bulk and it keeps for a couple of days, it's tasty and will fill you up.

    I love a nice 4 oz. piece of steak with cooked spinach and veggie pasta. I try to incorporate protein in my diet, and most days I limit bread to once a day. I can't wait until I can afford the grass fed meats.

    I wish I could get into stir fry. I used to love it. Do you add anything, like sauce or something?

    Actually, I think I tend to over-cook stir fries... Maybe that's why I went off them...
