Food Ideas

Almost 2 months out!! I need food ideas! I am so bored with the same old same old. I am not a big seafood fan so don't recommend that.

What are you guys eating? Share your creative ideas because I'm lacking in this department.

I need ideas too! My basics include Babybel Lite cheese rounds, chicken, Dannon Lite & Fit Greek Yogurt, Fresh Mozzarella with tomatoes and basil, scrambled eggs with vegetables, salmon or chicken over salad, Lite turkey kielbasa, veggie burgers. My "cheats" usually involve a few pretzel thins.

It gets pretty dull after a while!

At my soft food stage (and on...), I ate a lot of chicken salad, tuna salad, ham salad, seafood salad, egg salad. Because I can eat so little, I never worried about FF mayo, but I do use light as I prefer the taste.

Refried Beans with ground beef and salsa mixed in, topped with cheese and baked is good. Hummus or guacamole is a favorite. Quiche is/was a staple. I skipped the crust and added all my favorite chopped meats and veggies. There is a LOT that can be done with a quiche as far as fillings. I also did crustless pot pie with shredded chicken. Crab cakes, shrimp cakes, black bean cakes.

Chili, beef stew, white chicken chili. lunch meat roll ups with cheese and avocado inside, omelettes

It seems hard, but it's not. Just be creative. Peruse cook books, remove the carbs and enjoy!

I do turkey meatballs, smoked salmon, chicken satay, crabcakes (weighed and reshaped for my 20 size) and moist lunch meats with things in them, as LipstickLady said. Banana slices dipped in PB2 powder is a nice change from time to time, or a well warmed (canned in water) peach half with cinnamon on it and a Tablespoon of vanilla yogurt. Just a few of my own favorites anyway.
