The Good Left Undone by Adriana Trigiani.

SkinnyGirl Poppyseed dressing - sugar free and so flavorful. Trader Joe's Cruciferous Blends - shredded kale, broccoli, red cabbage, carrots, etc. The greens mixed with the Skinny Girl Poppyseed Dressing, some pepitas and low-sugar craisins - a truly filling salad that is more like dessert. :smiley:

I put them in a ziplock bag with fat free italian dressing overnight. I'll usually season them a lot of different ways once they are on the pan. Some get "garlic garlic"; some "onion onion"; some paprika or taco or chili seasoning. Lots of variety prepared all at once. I oven grill them at 375 degrees until cooked through…

I will definitely browse the freezer section to find Amy's and Udi's. I'm really happy to know that there are good breads, pastas and pretzels for when I feel those cravings.

Wow! Thank you so much for all of the ideas. Here is what my typical day might be, food-wise: B: egg white with broccoli and mushroom, sometimes on a bagel thin or light english muffin. Sometimes a Jimmy Dean's Delights breakfast sandwich. Sometimes maple and brown sugar oatmeal. My all-time favorite breakfast splurge is a…

Good point, thanks. I am on the mid-atlantic coast in the US.

Oh my goodness! This looks fabulous. Are you willing and able to share the recipe?

Here are a few of the relatively low-cal/high protein foods I rely on to keep me satisfied for a while (though I am sure many would say these are not the best choices you can make): No fat plain Greek yogurt with a bit of fruit (strawberries are good) Dannon light & fit Greek vanilla yogurt (5.3 oz is 80 calories and 12g…

I love a poached egg over anything with tomato sauce. The combination is fabulous and the runny yolk makes the spaghetti sauce so creamy. I have spaghetti squash mixed with sautéed onions and mushrooms and light spaghetti sauce in the fridge now. I think I'll top it with a poached egg for dinner tonight. :smile:

That sounds fabulous! I love all things pumpkin!

This looks fabulous. Thank you for sharing the recipe. :)

Thank you for sharing the recipe. Looks great and very easy to make!

meganpeters - Is that ground turkey in pineapple halves?

So many great ideas here. Thank you to everyone who shared. :)

That turkey sausage sounds fabulous. Thank you for posting the recipe, Debra! On Sundays, I batch cook for the week and have lots of extra to put in the freezer in individual portions. This is what I cooked one Sunday recently: Oven grilled chicken breast, several flavors (onion, garlic, balsamic, Italian) Oven grilled…

I like either a romaine or spinach salad with sliced grilled chicken and hard-boiled egg whites. You could add other sources of protein to it, like low fat shredded cheese and some black beans.

Thank you, SpecialKitty7!

Where in Costco can I find the wraps? Are they refrigerated? Frozen? On a shelf? Thanks!

Looks fabulous! I have all of these ingredients except the shaved parm. So simple and yet I wouldn't have thought to make it. Thank you! I am going to add it into next week's lunch rotation. :)

chili lime chicken burgers reduced fat sliced cheese - provolone, swiss frozen flatbreads frozen brown rice - in 3 bags (cooks in microwave in 3 minutes) flavored vinegars whole wheat Tuscan pane bread (sliced)

I have a stash in my freezer of 4 ounce chicken breast portions with all different seasonings (balsamic, Italian, garlic, onion, teriyaki). I also have mini turkey meatloaves (about 4 oz each - mix of lean ground turkey, oats, shredded carrots, and egg whites to bind), black bean burgers (1/2 burger in each baggie), turkey…

This looks like an excellent idea for dinner or for a cold salad. Thank you! I don't know why I haven't thought of using light Italian dressing in a dish like this. I am definitely going to try it. :smiley:

I like it in the mix with the brown rice. I've never had it alone. It was a prepared combination that was already seasoned, and it was delicious.

Today is spinach salad with rotisserie chicken; garlic-seasoned brown rice & quinoa; and pretzel crisps with a laughing cow swiss cheese wedge.

Mine is baby spinach with 3 oz. diced rotisserie chicken breast, cucumbers & tomatoes and fig balsamic vinegar. I also have a banana and a Babybel light cheese, though those are likely to be a late-afternoon snack.

Thank you!

This sounds fabulous! Do you cook the rice in the bags before you use them in the sauté pan?

I like to cook a turkey breast or spiral ham on the weekend and slice. I bag the portions individually and then put all of the small bags into a larger one that is labeled with what type of meat, how many oz in each baggie, and the date I cooked/froze it. You can easily bag in family-size portions and label accordingly.…

Today, I have a green salad of romaine lettuce and grape tomatoes. I brought some "mock turkey chili" (ground turkey, black beans, corn & salsa) to put on top. I also have some shredded cheddar. Snack is more grape tomatoes cut in half and drizzled with fig-flavored balsamic vinegarette and some sliced cucumbers.

Thank you for the reassurance about peeling them. I'll try that with the batch I cook this Sunday. Oh, and I LOVE the idea of cooking them in the oven. I'll research that further - not sure if I have to put water in the muffin tin? Or spray with non-stick before putting the egg in there?
