    One of my favorite lunches lately is Jamie Easons "Cottage Cheese In A Blanket". Today I topped it with pepper, and sliced tomatoes too.

    Cottage Cheese in a Blanket

    1/2 cup liquid egg whites
    1/4 cup unsweetened almond milk
    2 tbsp. wheat germ
    (whisk together and cook like a pancake on the stove top)

    Fill with:
    1/2 cup lactose free cottage cheese (I like Lactaid) and season with salt and pepper (fold over and serve)

    i eat nonfat greek yogurt that is high in protein and i add fresh or frozen berries to it ..another one i do is pure protein drink where you can buy different flavors. i like the chocolate ,cookes n cream and the banana flavored ones.. sometimes i just grab a serving of boneless skineless chicken breast out of the fridge and add franks hot sauce to it

    Bump for that protein shake; it looks delicious!
  • I like apples dipped in peanut butter dip
    - 2 tablespoons creamy peanut butter (or serving size)
    -1 tablespoon pure honey
    -sprinkle (about 1 teaspoon) flaked coconut

    it's a nice change from just dipping in plain peanut butter & the honey makes it sweet- nice substitution when you're have a craving for sweets

    OR
    Yoplait Smoothies (the frozen mix you get at the grocery store) just blend with milk--yum!

    Greek yogurt
    Apple slices and peanut butter
    Protein shake
    Protein bar (promax, think thin)

  • wow thanks for all these ideas - really appreciated - that shake looks amazing - can anyone tell me how to make a homemade protein shake using berries etc - is any old whey powder ok - I am trying to keep the sugar content down and don't know if flavoured protein shakes have a lot of sugar in the m...... to be honest I need educating about protein shakes ....
