I used to post photos from my phone. But the last few times, it wouldn't work.
I love lentils. Sometimes I just cook up some brown ones, add onion and carrot. Then I serve it over rice with some spicy Italian sausage and a little hot sauce.
I used to make a lentil soup/stew with red lentils, lots of spices, garlic and ginger, added sweet potatoes, canned tomatoes. Then to make it so very good, I'd add a can of coconut milk. Tons of fiber and deliciousness.1 -

That is pretty much my recipe sans the coconut milk. I used vegetable broth and added a whole bag of spinach! You know how spinach just seems to disappear when you put it in a stew! Having it for dinner again tonight!2 -
I made a naan pizza with broccoli and feta1

Salmon, with baked potatoes and zucchini--I had half of the smallest spud with some plain Greek yogurt and chives on it. 🥔1

Last night's "pizza on Ezekiel tortilla" with parmesan cheese, mozzarella cheese, tomato sauce, orange bell pepper, spinach, onions, crimini mushrooms, oregano, garlic, chile pepper flakes. Looks a little scary, maybe, but tasted really good.

Monday's food experiment, already posted on another thread but I'll share it here, too: Too-full soft taco stuffed with a layer of thin-sliced browned potato, egg, cheese, cubed smoked tofu, and way too much pan-browned onion/raw brussels sprout slaw (dressed with lime juice, white wine vinegar, salt, and a seasoning of spicy oven-browned smashed garlic/black pepper/chile pepper flakes/residual butter that was left on the baking pan after I made garlic almonds the day before, and saved because too tasty to throw away 😆). The tomatoes were not integral, just a side.

Friday is pizza and a glass of wine night at our house and has been for over 20 years. Its evolved over time and my pizza is now a tortilla shell base, with tomato sauce, mushrooms, green peppers, red onions, shredded mozza, and some spices. If I have spinach or asparagus in the fridge then I'll throw that on too. Including wine, it comes in at about 600 calories. I'm retired now so Friday doesn't have the same signifance as it did when I worked, but its surprising how much I still look forward to it 🙂4

Same at my house when my kids were young and at home. I still LOVE pizza on Friday with wine. Problem for me is I overindulge in both! Have not had either in 3 weeks and I sure miss it.2 -

I really want to go vegan.....its so healthy.2 -
I made eggplant lasagna ...it was delicious! They didn't have ricotta at the store so I used cottage cheese and it was just as good. In the good ole days I would have had a big piece of Italian bread to go with it. Miss those days.3

Scallops with broccoli and whole wheat pasta3

Homemade mac and cheese, with my own pickled beets from last summer = 375 calories. Comfort food at its finest for a cold, snowy night 🙂3

I actually make crustless quiche a lot and love how using a different cheese or adding something like spinach or bacon can stop it from becoming boring. I even started making them for breakfast if we have friends or family staying over night. It doesn't require any watching or fussing over which is perfect when you have company.2 -
Tonight it's sautéed shrimp and veggies with rice. Yum!1

I had lentil stew (had it in the freezer) and roasted eggplant. So good!2
