    Homemade Tacos -- crispy shells, low fat beef, cheddar cheese, sourcream, salsa, lettuce

    Slowcooker pork -- shred pork -- add to tortilla with salsa and sourcream OR shred pork and add bbq sauce on a bun

    Asian Chicken Salad -- Lettuce, Grilled Chicken, crunchy chow mein noodles, chopped cabbage, red peppers, onion, shred carrots, Asian sesame dressing

    I actually have a ton of recipes that I LOVE to make but I have a ton of cookbooks and live on the internet sites getting more recipes. It is funny but when I am watching what I eat trying to make good choices I eat better tasting food then when I eat without awareness!!

    Shameless plug (sorry!) but my food diary blog - ameliasfooddiary.wordpress.com - might give you some ideas. I take pictures of all my foods and blog them with recipes and calories :)
