The BEST protein dinner - even could be a mushie!



Recommended Posts

I just found the best chicken ever. It is from trader joes and it is shredded BBQ chicken. It can be found in the refridgerator section and it is delicious!

The best part is the nutrition information - for a 1/4 cup serving it is just 70 calories, 1 g fat, 7 carbs and 7 protein!! My family has the chicken on toasted Buns but I just eat it in a small bowl.

It is shredded very finely so I think it would even be good for the mushie phase! Enjoy!

I went grocery shopping after reading this thread this morning and found a similar item at Winco under the brand name "Lloyd's" ... they are bowls, in the refrigerated section and come in either shredded chicken, beef or pork BBQ. Cost was just under $5 (each) ... Haven't tried it yet, looks good though :)

Kroger's carry's this in Houston. I think it may be the Lloyd brand - not sure. It is in the refrigerated section near the meats in a plastic tub, in the different flavors mentioned above.

I've had them before - they are very good!

I never thought about this as a post band item - thanks for the idea. I was eating some regular chicken today and was thinking "there is no way I will be able to chew and swallow this post band". Of course, its probably my lack of cooking skill - my chicken breasts never come out as good as taste at a restaurant. Of course, they soak it in brine (salt)!

I saw the Lloyds brand as well when I was at the store and read the label and it seems to be very similar (only 70 calories for 1/4 cup.)

Cant beat it !

That sounds delish. Can u give us the brand name, we don't have a Traders Joe store in Houston.

I wish we would get a Trader Joe's here in Houston! My Dad is always bringing me stuff from there when he visits me from Las Vegas.

Glad you guys brought this up! I've had the Lloyds brand from Krogers pre-band, and it's yummy. I never thought to get it now, figured the bbq is high in calories.. I'm going to have to buy some now! What an easy way to make dinner without the fuss.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
