just looking for some ideas of what i can make for dinner this week! what are some of your favorites? i am a vegetarian, my husband is not. i am still down with non-veggie recipes as i can try to think of a way to adapt them.


tonight we had hummus wraps with cheese, greens, peppers, and a bit of balsamic vinegar - YUM.

    Tonight I made Indian Butter Chicken modified a little bit to be less caloric on 1 serving size each of Naan.

    I am eating a horrendous meal of chicken, wonton wraps, cream cheese, other cheeses, and buckets of hot sauce all mushed together and deep fried.

    We call them buffalo chicken wontons, and they are definitely not a food that will help you maintain NOR lose weight. I don't even like them all that much but my guy swears they are the greatest food in existence. So I will gladly prepare them for him tonight.


    I might actually eat a bowl of kashi cearl instead. :)

    I'm cooking them now - fresh purple hull peas. :) I'm thinking I am going to mix them with a little rice and a wee bit of butter. (Sacrilege, I know!)

    Whole wheat greek style pita, with tzatziki (made with fat free yogurt), and cubed chicken breast, cooked in lemon juice, with garlic and oregano. Garnish with shredded lettuse, chopped tomatoes and red onion. Super yummy, messy, and one 7" pita topped with everything is under 500 calories, 7g of fiber and 42g of protein. Betcha it would work with tofu instead of chicken.

    I'm not a vegetarian but I still like to make chili with just TVP & beans. Lots of veggies, tomato, onion, garlic, & hot peppers or hot sauce for flavor. I put it over a little brown rice with greek yogurt instead of sour cream.
