chop up the veggies you do like and saute up, add some chicken or lean meat and sautee till cooked. Add a sauce that you like and either some cooked pasta or rice or diced up sweet potatoes and enjoy...

Big salads, with lean meats,

Chili's (ground turkey or white bean)

I make spaghetti and make my own sauce with diced tomatoes, and some tomatoe sauce and some spices and veggies then you can blend it to be smooth so you don't have chuncky if you don't like it.

Last night I made crunchy cajun oven fried chicken:

1 boneless skinnless chicken breast (I like to beat it to flatten it a little with a tenderizer, but you don't have to)
1/2 container of plain yogurt
1 cup corn flakes (put them in a ziplock bag and crush them with a rolling pin)
1/4 tsp cajun seasoning

Cover the chicken with yogurt and then dip it in the corn flakes, making sure it's well covered. Please on a cookie sheet sprayed with Pam. Sprinkle cajun seasoning on it and bake it in the 400 degree oven until brown and crispy and juice runs clear. (do not turn the chicken)

Serve with any type of steamed veggies of your choice or a salad. (I love steamfresh veggies you cook in the microwave)
