    We're grilling Tilapia & veggies - and will have a side of seasoned brown rice. Fish is a staple.

    I cooked 4 chicken breasts in the crock pot this weekend w BBQ sauce ( a recipe I found here), then shredded it & let them soak up the sauce. We used it for tacos, & on salads Now tonight we are using it in "stuffed peppers" with1/8 c of lofat cheese on top. There's still over 2 cups of chix left so plan to freeze the rest...

    Sweet Potato & Caramelized onion Frittata with salad! 1/4 pie is 210 calories + load up on pretty much as much salad as I want :)

    View my diary...I cook A LOT, and have some good ideas. If you need any recipes, I'm willing to share. Tonight on the menu is Grilled Portabella mushrooms with a feta and herb stuffing, grilled veggies and a potato. I don't eat pork or beef anymore, but my hubby is having an 8oz steak to go with it all. BBQ season is upon us (well, at least in Southern Ontario!)

    I have this huge snap lock Tupperware that I fill with salad. Then I get all sorts of toppings - hard boiled eggs, cheddar, slivered almonds, feta, grilled chicken, taco meat, salsa, sour cream, avocado, apples...

    Every day I can quickly build a different salad for each meal. It is easy to calorie count and I don't get bored.

    I will eat less during the day so that I can have a big dinner at night. If my dinner is not around 1000 calories, I am usually not very happy with it. Last night was porchetta, green beans, and a salad with chopped bacon and egg. Tonight is tacos. It helps me cook for company and eat the quantities I enjoy.

    crushed blueberry pork tenderloin
    steamed broccoli butter & salt
    rice or maybe some leftover fingerling potatoes.

    Tonight is homemade Lentil, Bean & Veggie Soup, loaded with veggies (cabbage, leek, onion, brocolli, spinach & carrots). Made a big batch of it on Monday for dinner and it was also lunch yesterday, dinner tonight and the rest in the freezer for lunches.

    The other night I heard the best nutrition advice I've heard in a long time - make the salad the entree. That's what I usually do, have a big spinach salad with tomato, cucumber, bell pepper, light feta, olives, a few Craisins then whatever lean protein I choose (usually chicken breast but sometimes salmon. Yum!!!!!

    Tonight is crockpot beef stew with potato and carrots. I might do some "fried" apples to go with it. (Sautee in nonstick pan until carmelized, then simmer with a little water, stevia, and cinnamon. Even the hubby loves it!

    Just lemon juice on the salad? Or do you mean for the fish?
