    Shredded pan-fried chicken breast (thin sliced while frozen) with italian seasoning and melted shredded cheese on it.

    Or eggs. Always eggs... with cottage cheese mixed in.

    This morning for breakfast, we put a layer of ground turkey down in a cast iron skillet, then threw in 6 eggs, broccoli, 2 small shredded potatoes, and topped it with some cheese. Baked it for 20 minutes or so. Came to something like 450 cals, 36 grams of protein per each of the 4 servings and however many carbs from the potatoes. That was 3 hours ago and I'm still stuffed. :)

    Yes to the porterhouse, add some shrimp, and take that other guy's salad with avocado and bacon. Hmmm....

    I would like to add
    Spaghetti squash:
    First day cook it and use half as noodles in spaghetti
    Second day drain it REALLY well, mix in a can of salmon (or two cans of tuna), an egg, cheeses of your choice, bacon, green onions, garlic, smoke flavor, whatever else you want and fry the patties in the bacon grease. Even with all of the whole fat cheese and thick sliced bacon I use, the good sized patties are less than 300 calories a pop and taste like comfort food. The squash sorta tastes like hash browns in the patty. 19F/6C/25P

    Lasagna with eggplant or zucchini instead of noodles (zucchini is better IMO). I use 1lb 93/7 beef, 2lb full fat ricotta, 1 lb cottage cheese, spinach, mushrooms, onion, sometimes grated carrot, lots of feta, parmesan, and mozzerella cheeses, low sugar spaghetti sauce, and herbs. Makes 8-10lbs of food! 425 cals for a huge plate of it. 24F/21C/32P

    Meatloaf muffins. 93/7 beef, onion, finely chopped zucchini, carrot, or spinach, a small amount of panko, and egg to bind. Doctored up ketchup on top for frosting. These are about 130 cals. 3F/9C/16P

    Man I need to get cooking...

    This sounds AWESOME!! Do you like the Yves ground round better than the morningstar?

    Since I don't do rice anymore, I've started doing stirfry with canned chicken

    1 can of canned chicken
    an egg or two
    Olive oil (I use bacon grease for flavor)
    Low carb veggies of your choosing (I usually add different colored peppers)

    Fry the chicken in a pan until it is broken down to approximately rice size bits and slightly browned. Add in vegetables and eggs, serve on its own or as a side to some beef.

    I couldn't touch that meatless meat stuff with a 10 foot pole. It contains soy and wheat and I can't have either.


    My favorite low carb, high protein recipe is simple and easy.

    Grilled medium grass fed rib eye steak with grass fed garlic butter melted on top and a big garden salad with home made ranch dressing.

    Super YUM!
