    Fage 0% with one of the following:
    • Jell-o sugar free powder mix (think cheesecake, butterscotch, chocolate...)
    • PB2
    • Smucker's sugar-free preserves
    • Protein powder
    • In my shakes with Almond milk and any of the above

    Fage 0% as a sub for:
    • Sour cream
    • Cottage cheese
    • Mayonnaise

    BP2 in all recipes and on anything that calls for peanut butter.

    Seafood: shrimp specifically. I can buy frozen shrimp, cut up a bunch of veggies for a salad and throw frozen shrimp in a ziplock back (all the night before). By the time lunch rolls around the next day, shrimp are thawed and ready to be de-tailed/cut up and mixed in with salad.

    Baking eggs in a muffin pan, throw each egg onto an english muffin and freeze it. Night before I want it for breakfast I throw it into the fridge and nuke it in the morning. Sooooo.... drooling right now.

    Egg whites. Cut up a bunch of veggies and throw in a Tupperware container the night before. Add in desired amount of egg whites (I typically do 6 servings). Bring to work, nuke it and I have myself a high-protein, veggie packed breakfast. Literally full until lunch. Be sure to stir the mixture every 40-60 seconds during the nuke until eggs are done.

    Eggs are SO versatile if you have a microwave.

    Recently discovered zucchini and beets.

    Constantly experimenting with different ways to prepare and enjoy all vegetables :)

    On steak?? As in just spread over the top like a cheesy heavenly condiment??? Having steak tomorrow for dinner....may have to try this!

    I cannot get on the Greek Yogurt bandwagon. I have tried it, numerous brands, and just can't get past the taste. My current "obsession" I guess you could call it is the "Food Should Taste Good" brand Sweet Potato Chips and "Bean-itos" brand Pinto Bean and Flax Seed Chips with World Classics Savory Cilantro Salsa.

    Greek yogurt. I'm obsessed with trying to figure out how people can put it in their faces without doing a full body dry heave.

    lol - This is my response to greek yogurt. I try to love it. I've tried every brand and flavor I can get my hands on. I've tried mixing it in smoothies and protein shakes. But no matter what I do or how hard I try to convince myself it's yummy, I gag as soon as it's in my mouth.

    I also hate almost all greek yogurt....except the Greek God's honey yogurt. It tastes like cheesecake. Alot more calories than other brands, but it is SO good.

    I went to the local Women's Health and Lifestyle fair with my mom, that's where I tried them first....they are SO good! I could eat an entire bag if I'm not careful! :)

    I'm sort of like you in this when it comes to yoghurt as a sweet, but I like it in savory things. I mix cucumber slices with or without peel, garlic, dill weed, and salt. I eat it with salmon or chicken curry. It's amazing over rice. My husband grills kabobs and we put this sauce in pita halves with some of the kabobs. I also use yoghurt instead of sour cream in Sour Cream Chicken Enchiladas.

    I don't like sweet yoghurt dishes at all.

    Apples with peanut butter. Especially honey crisps. Or pink crisps.
    Special K cracker ships...the southwest ranch ones. I need to stop eating these stupid empty calories, but they're so good. And they're like a 'cheat' for 110 calories.

    I'm stuck on apples with peanut butter too.And the honey crisp ones at that.
