I forgot, I also will dice up little bit of an apple (more or less depending on how much you want) I add it to a microwavable bowl and add just a bit of water, then sprinkle on 1/4 cup of oats or less, cinnamon, and 1-2 tsp. brown sugar and then microwave it until it's as hot as I want it and it's really good.

I freeze red grapes they taste like grape Popsicles to me, or spoon any flavor of yogurt into a ziplock bag and seal off the bag and squeeze it all down to a corner and snip off the tip and using a sheet pan squeeze out little dots of yogurt on it and freeze it over night. Also, navel oranges or mandarin oranges really…

What sort of recipes do you use ground turkey in? Anything I've tried has come out not tasting so good and was really bland.

Yeah, I would definitely try bison if I knew where to find it.

((I accidentally posted my reply before I meant to. Lol)

Thank you so much for the suggestions! I'll definitely have to try those. Do you make anything with ground turkey? I would like to do more with it, but it always tastes so bland to me and I try to add enough seasonings so it w

I guess what I see as unhealthy and from the articles/blogs, etc, I've read on the subject, it would be boxed/processed foods, junk food of course, and the meals I make are from scratch, mostly, I mean, I still use things like canned beans, veggies, I like a slice of whole grain toast once in a while with a poached egg on…

Sorry, haha, I guess I didn't finish that thought. But I was trying to say I've heard pasta isn't a healthy carb and is really processed and so since I've done away with the majority of the boxed processed foods (except I have whole grain bread once or twice a week and a few whole grain crackers) didn't seem like a good…

I thought beef wasn't healthy since it's loaded with so much fat/grease? I don't think I can find Kangaroo at my local Walmart, it would be interesting to try it. I heard Bison is good. Have you tried that before? I don't care for duck so much, but I do really like fish! I have been trying to learn how to cook healthily…

That sounds really good! I'm not sure about the sriacha sauce, I didn't care for the taste of it, could I substitute with Franks hot sauce? Thank you for the suggestion! I'm definitely going to try this one.

I like brown rice a lot and I'll make up like a rice pilaf or healthy Spanish rice to go with chicken taco salad. I don't usually use that much of the cream soups because I know it's not too healthy unless I make my own. I try to make what I can from scratch. But the Thai curry spicy sesame sauces sound really good! Thanks…

That sounds really good! Recently I did try adding salsa, black beans and corn to chicken breasts first I seasoned chicken with like a taco seasoning, salt and pepper I covered it with foil and baked it for half of the cooking time then poured over salsa and the corn and beans and added a little garlic and put it back into…

I guess it's just that I'm worried I'm going to fail again to loose weight which makes me determined to learn as much as I can about having a healthy lifestyle and maybe even obsessing over it. So yeah it's going to worry me when I can't figure out the calories because knowing the calories allows me to keep control over my…

No, it's not because of religious reasons. I just had someone tell me pork is fatty that I should stay away from it. And because I'm still learning how to make healthier food choices, I listened to them. But I love pork so maybe I'll try a pork tenderloin sometime. Is there any special way you cook it? Oh, thanks so much…

Thank you guys for your suggestions/advice! I'm new to this eating healthy lifestyle and exercise and I'm trying to learn as much as I can about it so I can be healthy.

Yeah, I've been religious about keeping track of how many calories I'm eating and I'm still loosing weight. I'm not weighing food, (I will be soon as I can buy a scale) but I have been measuring out proper portions of things and looking online or using the barcode on the items to help track my calories.
