    Oh jeez... food porn time...

    Don't have the cal counts on these anymore but most are around 500-1000 cals high in protein, moderate fat and low carb. That's just how I roll.

    Fish Taco-Less Salad, under 500 cals(tilapia dry rubbed, pan seared, served over shredded cabbage with mango salsa and cheese)

    Prosciutto and Arugula Salad Pizza with a whole wheat crust, one third of the pizza was around 500 cals

    Two kraut burgers with cheddar and coleslaw, cut out the buns to cut major cals, probably closer to 1000cals
    25aogi9.jpg

    Bunless Juicy Lucy with sweet potato fries and sriracha dipping sauce, probably around 500-750 cals

    Another quick and easy low cal high protein option:
    2 links of Aidell's or Applegate Farms chicken and apple sausages
    2 cups of halved brussel sprouts
    1 strip of bacon
    S&P
    Ranch dressing powdered mix
    Grated parmesan
    ~500 cals

    Fry the strip of bacon, toss the brussel sprouts in the bacon grease with S&P and about a tsp of the ranch dressing mix and sautee. Slice the sausage links and add to the sautee pan. Crumble bacon and sprinkle bacon and parm over the top of the brussel sprouts and sausage. You could use sub a lot of different veggies in if you don't like brussel sprouts and there are a few different varieties of the chicken sausages so you could mix things up a bit too.

    I don't have counts on calories etc, and some people might not think it's too healthy but it's definitely much healthier than my meals before joining MFP:

    grilled boneless/skinless chicken breast topped with:
    grilled mushrooms
    a thin slice of swiss
    slices of 1/4 avocado

    served with steamed cauliflower, broccoli and carrots

    My salad: Baby mixed greens, arugula and baby spinach blend, grape tomatoes, garlic clove, chick peas, 1/2 serving walnuts, roasted chicken 3 oz... no skin, 1 tbsp. Olive oil and balsamic vinegar. And with a hard boiled egg or 1/2 and avocado added to this salad.

    I also like Broiled Tilapia with steamed veggies.

    Steak kabobs made with top sirloin, mushrooms, red, yellow and orange bell peppers and sweet onions. I eat that with brown rice cooked in broth. I make my own marinade of Worcestershire sauce, garlic, a bit of sweet chili sauce, low sodium soy sauce and a bit of olive oil. You can also make that with chicken, pork or shrimp.
    There are a LOT of healthy dinner ideas at skinnytaste.com. Two of my favs are the sweet potato shepherds pie and the skinny cajun chicken alfredo.

    That crock pot recipe is the best.

    You can add in other mixed veggies and pinto beans too. We eat it probably 2-3 times a month. SO easy!!

    Also, for home cooking, we like to do quinoa with some sauteed veggies mixed in (or plain honestly, we just like quinoa) and then we'll either season and pan fry skinless chicken breast in olive oil or brown and bake pork chops, or something like that. And roasted brussel sprouts. Mm. Something like that is pretty much our Go-To at home meal.
