fried brown rice with eggs
3 cups cooked brown rice [add a bit more water than usual when you cook this because when you fry the rice it'll be more dry]
1.5c peas and carrots [i buy this in a frozen bag]
15 eggwhites
crushed garlic cloves
.25c chopped onions
Spray Pam in pan and add crushed garlic cloves. Fry on medium heat until fragrant, then add peas and carrots. Continue for about 10mins, remove and pour into a bowl. Spray some more pam, add chopped onions and eggwhites in pan. Fry until cooked. Then add the brown rice, eggwhites and bowl of peas & carrots together. Mix them well. You can add your own seasoning here. Suggestively soy sauce.
-------------
tomato chicken
15oz raw chicken breasts
1.5cup diced tomato with green chili
4 crushed garlic cloves
.25c sliced onions
Fry the crushed garlic cloves until fragrant. Add the tomatoes and onions together. Cook on medium heat for about 5 mins, then add the chicken breasts.

Low Carb Cheesecake
Found this on bb.com last night
Ingredients:
2 lbs no fat cream cheese
4 whole large eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 tablespoon cinnamon
4 oz (1/2 cup) low carb no fat milk
1 cup cooking splenda (sucralose)
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees
Using No Fat cooking spray, spray 9 pie pan
Mix ingredients together using an electric blender in a large bowl
Pour mix into pre-greased pan
Heat at 350 degrees for 40-50 minutes
Remove from oven and place in refrigerator
You must let this sit at least 4-5 hours in the fridge if you want a decent cheesecake.
Macronutrient Totals (per slice):
Protein: 20g
Carbohydrates: 6g
Fat: 2.25g
Chocolate or vanilla protein powder can be added to the mix for flavor and more protein if desired.
If one desires a softer cheesecake, then use 1 lb of light ricotta cheese and 1 lb of fat free cream cheese instead of 2 lbs fat free cream cheese. This changes the totals per slice.
Macronutrient Totals (per slice):
Protein: 17g
Carbohydrates: 5g
Fat: 4.5g
* This cheesecake is extremely good when topped with Walden Farms' calorie free chocolate syrup and a thin coat of peanut butter or fat free whip cream.
I just made a batch and can't wait to dig into it tomorrow....I tasted the batter...soooooo good

HEALTHY LASAGNA:
SAUCE:
1 tsp. olive oil
1 small onion, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 lb lean ground sirloin (450 grams)
7 cups (1.75 litres) spaghetti sauce (the soupy stuff; if thick sauce put 5 cups sauce + 2 cups water)
In a saucepan (or frying pan), heat oil. Add onion and garlic and cook until onion is soft. Add ground sirloin and cook completely. Drain on paper towels then dump into large bowl. Stir in the spaghetti sauce.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
FILLING:
Mix in separate bowl:
2 cups fat free cottage cheese
1 beaten egg
1/4 tsp nutmeg
1/4 tsp ground black pepper
Mix in separate bowl:
2 small zucchini, shredded (approx. 3 cups)
2 cups shredded low fat mozza.
Other ingredients:
12 pieces no cook lasagna noodles
spinach (I used 1/2 of a 255 gram bag
Parmesan cheese (to taste; I use 3 tbsp)
Layer in 9x13 pan:
1.5 cups sauce
The following (3x):
_________________________
3 noodles
1/2 cup cottage cheese mixture
spinach (1/3 of total)
1.5 cups sauce
1 cup zucchini/mozza
_________________________
3 noodles
Remaining sauce
Remaining zucchini/mozza
Parmesan cheese
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
COOKING:
Cover with tin foil (loosely.. make sure it doesn't touch cheese) and cook at 350' for 40 min or until bubbly.
Uncover, cook 15 minutes longer. Let stand 5 minutes before serving.
Tip: With the no-cook noodles do not place directly side by side or overlap. They expand outward while cooking and the lasagna fills the pan widthwise and lengthwise and flattens out.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
MMMMMM.. THIS IS SO GOOD.. I'm not calculating calories for this as it is too much work but it is healthy I assure you! The 1 egg can be replaced with 2 egg whites if you like.31-26-36.

This is my FAVORITE salad:
1/2 of an avocado
cup of spinach
1 small tomatoes
1/2 can of tune or canned salmon (drain the oil)
1/2 of a lemon
Mix the spinach, tomatoes, and mush up the avocado. Throw the salmon or tuna on top, and squeeze the 1/2 lemon over everything.
I know it's VERY simple. But it has great texture to it, and tastes SOOOO yummy! This also happens to be my favorite way to eat tuna._______

1 Tbsp Vanilla Extract
1 Egg (next time I am going to try and use the substitute)
Mix all together - roll into little balls put on greased cookie sheet

Yummy Stuff!
I posted some of these in my journal too....
CinnaVanilla Apple Oatmeal
Combine 1/2 c. cooked oats with 1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce. *In a small cup combine 1 scoop of vanilla whey protein powder with a small amount of water until all the whey is dissolved (should be thick). Pour whey into the cooked oats/applesauce. Re-heat in microwave until desired thickness. Add cinnamon/nutmeg/vanilla flavoring to taste.
*Do not skip this step or whey will be lumpy (even the instantized kind)
Chocolate Banana Fiber cereal
Combine 1/4 c. dry oats and 1/2c. fiber one and 1/2 ripe banana cut into small pieces. Cook according to oatmeal package direction. Stir in 1 scoop of chocolate whey. ENJOY!
My favorite Breakfast!
Cook 1/4c. oats with 1/4c. fiber one. Let cool slightly and stir in 1/3c. cottage cheese and 1T sugar free maple syrup. Chop 3 dried apricots (or any dried fruit, strawberries work well too) and stir into oat/cc mixture.
Peaches n' Cream Protein Ice Cream
Combine 1 can (15oz) peaches (look for "in their own juice, or the kind with Splenda) with 3 scoops whey protein in a blender. Blend until smooth. Pour in an ice cream maker and freeze according to manufacturer instructions.
IF you don't have an ice cream maker, freeze in a shallow bowl until outside is hard but center is still soft. Scrape into a blender, blend until smooth and re-freeze (this is to prevent ice crystals).
* You might have to thaw on the counter-top or in the microwave for a few seconds before enjoying.
Cheesey Chicken and Rice
1 cup cooked brown rice, 1/2 cup salsa, 3 oz lean steak, chicken or turkey cooked, 1/4c. black beans (optional), 1 slice FF cheddar cheese.
Put hot cooked rice in a bowl, place one slice of cheese on top. Stir together steak and salsa and beans if using (heat in microwave if salsa and beans are cold). Pour on top of cheese. Let cheese melt a few seconds and enjoy!
Devilish Eggs
Hard boil 6 large eggs.
In the mean time cook 1/4-1/2 c. oats. Sweeten with 1T SF maple syrup and/or cinnamon and Splenda. Cool and peel eggs and discard the yolks. Stuff yolks with oatmeal and sprinkle with 1T finely chopped nuts. (Mashed sweet potatoes can be used in place of oatmeal)Lift Smart...No Excuses

Healthier Version of CPK Pear & Gorgonzola Pizza
(1) Fat Free Whole Wheat Tortilla- sprayed with pam w/ butter
1 sm no sugar applesauce - add some red pepper, basil, rosemary
Onions - sliced and sauteed in Pam w/ butter
FF Feta - they don't have FF gorgonzola at grocery
FF Mozz
(1) Ripe Pear.
Preheat Oven 425
Put applesuce on tortilla
then layer onions and pears and FF Feta and FF mozz
(we added grilled chicken breast for more protein). Put in oven about 15 min - take spring salad mix and toss with no calorie blue cheese dressing (I found this at the grocery store this weekend - no cal - no fat- no carbs - I wonder what it really is ). When pizza is done (cheese melted) cut into (4) pieces then put your salad on top (like they do at the CPK) and viola.

Super Protein Turkey Chili
1 lbs lean ground turkey
½ cup chopped green pepper (about ½ pepper)
1 8 oz. can tomato sauce (I used Contadina)
1 14 oz. can diced tomatoes (I used Hunts)
½ tsp chopped garlic, or 1 clove
1 8 oz. can cut green beans, 1 cup fresh
1 tsp. chili powder
1 tsp. cumin
1 tsp salt (opt.)
“Brown” turkey and garlic together in skillet. Add remaining ingredients and simmer for 10 min. For extra carbs eat over egg noodles or brown rice. For extra yum, add a small amount of FF cheese!

Recipes
Does anyone have any good veggies recipes? I am soooo tired of Broccoli, cauliflower, etc....There are so many veggies out there that I haven't tried because I'm not sure what to do with them.....so if any of you have any ideas, recipes, etc....I would sure appreciate them....
Thanks everyone and I love all the different recipes that I have collected so far
