What's on your dinner plate?

Tonight it's the same squash casserole as in my first post back on September 6 except I've added pimentos to the recipe for a little more color and flavor. Along with that, I've got 2 Bremer Cheese Lasagna Rolls (2) from Aldi with some marinara sauce and grated parmesan, and again about 5 oz. of buttered brussels sprouts. Total of 632 calories, which fits well within my daily calorie goal for the evening meal.

Not dinner because my dinners are usually boring (plain sandwiches or oatmeal), but I had leftovers from yesterday's lunch for breakfast today. Fish, eggplant and baby zucchini, lentils, tomatoes, cucumbers, and biscuits. A little under 600 calories.

Garlic and Lemon Shrimp; Roasted Butternut Squash; and Farro with sautéed red onion, garlic and asparagus tossed with feta and lemon juice. This was one of my favorite meals I've ever made. I love huge pops of flavor, which the garlic, lemon and feta gave the dishes!3 -
I do a modified Internment Fasting. (IF). Nice breakfast, nice lunch and that's it. At night I have a drink, relaxing after my workout.

Today was a spring mix salad with the mixed greens, tomato, mushrooms, red onion, bell pepper, and topped with some sunflower kernels and a olive-oil and vinegar dressing.
Didn't get a photo of that, but I did make one of my late dessert! LOL
Homemade Banana Nut Bread - Yummy! Will be eating only a thin slice, since I've already eaten about all my calories for the day. A somewhat bigger slice will be waiting for me when I get up for breakfast tomorrow.

I tend to save most of my calories for dinner because I am generally not very hungry during the day. This is last nights dinner and is approximately 850 calories. 6oz Sokeye Salmon, blackened and cooked in evoo. Side of sautéed green beans and some sweet potato fries. I technically follow a Keto diet, and I made these fries for my kids, but I had room in my macros and decided to indulge. Normally my dinners are just a large portion of protein and veggies cooked in healthy fats.

Was just about to say the same, even 650 would seem high.wilson10102018 wrote: »^^ I hate to stick my nose in but no way that is 850 calories.

I coat the salmon in evoo to get the seasoning to stick, then cook in a pan with more oil. Then the sweet potato fries and green beans are cooked in oil as well. I only count half of how much oil I actually use assuming that it all isn't absorbed. I use 1T to coat the fish, 2T in the pan and cook the beans in the same pan, then coat the sweet potatoes in oil before cooked.

There are your mistakes.The salmon is not 400 calories, you can't get 14g of oil to stick to a salmon fillet and what is shown in the photo is not 200 grams of sweet potato.
But, its your diary.0 -
