I was just kind of juggling ideas in my head lately to add some flavor to random grilled meats and came up with this the other day. I'm no great cook, or anything special but this came out very good in my opinion for being so simple. Just ate it a few minutes ago, definitely will do it again.

Boneless pork loin chops, I put on some "Mrs Dash Original" then grilled them.

After that, I took some of the sweet chili sauce and glazed the chops, it was a perfect combo in my books, and about as simple as it gets.

Ox Liver (about 5-6oz)
chopped tomatoes
onions
potatoes
carrots
with gravy (made with water)

along with some tiger loaf bread = deliciousness!

un-sure about cals/pro/fat/carbs on this one though.

take a guess at 500 odd and maybe protein at around 32 or 40?
fat wouldnt be too high as would carbs unless you keep the bread.

Can anyone post any good chicken breasts recipes? Tired of the same ol same ol'

[Arsenal540]

Does anyone have a Mashed Cauliflower recipe that involves cottage cheese as oppose to sour cream or cream cheese. They sound real interesting and alot less caloric then mashed potatoes. I am a big cottage cheese fan! Thanks

[SpeedCheeser]

Can anyone post any good chicken breasts recipes? Tired of the same ol same ol'

That depends on what the same ol' is. There tons of things you can make, and easily too.

Easiest thing is just use a different sauce or season blend from night to night to give it different tastes.

Grill or pan fry breasts or tenders and cut in to strips for fajitas.

Toss tenders in hot sauce and eat them as a replacement for wings, or put them on a bun for a chicken sandwich or make a spicy chicken salad.

Butterfly a breast and put ham and cheese in it and bake for a chicken cordon bleu.

Grill a breast and then top with some sauteed onions, peppers, and mushrooms. Top with melted cheese.

Pan fry the chicken in a bit of olive oil and then mix with frozen stir fry veggies and your favorite flavor sauce from the Asian isle. Serve over brown rice.

Chicken lasagna. They usually have recipes to follow on the noodle box.

Serve grilled chicken with whole wheat fettucini and alfredo sauce.

Stuffed Peppers:

Cut green pepper in half and scoop out all the junk inside & place on foil on baking sheet ( i do it in a toaster oven

stuff peppers with this mixture: (if u have left over mixture just put it next to the peppers on the baking sheet and press it down like a burger)

(half cup of salt free tomato sauce with mrs dash italian medly added to it)
(1/2 cup of a mixture of cooked brown rice and quinoa)
(4oz lean ground beef)
mix and mush all of the above together and put in peppers)

bake on 350 for about 30 min or until pepper is as soft as you want it

add salt (i use half sea salt, half regualr salt) to taste

this gives you about 2-3 veggie servings, 1 protein serving and 1-2 whole grain servings

[RomanPrice]

the thing i cheat with is home made pizza, its easy

i buy large whole wheat or wholegrain tortias

add tomato sauce

some light cheese and load it up with veggies and anything else i might think of, get real creative

throw it in the oven and 15 minutes later i have a perfect 300-400 calorie pizza that i seem to enjoy a lot more then when i order one

[bethtwenty4]

Make a pumpkin pie according to standard recipe. Let cool. Remove from pie tin and place in a round, deep, cake tin (I used a spingform cheesecake pan). Prep a boxed spice cake mix. Pour enough of cake batter over pumpkin pie to fill in around sides and about a 1/2in over the pie. Bake according to cake directions (check 5-10min sooner for done-ness). Let cool. Cover with cream cheese frosting. Serve with whipped cream.

End result is AMAZING! Not healthy, but delish! Made this Saturday for my early Thanksgiving Gonna make my bf one with an apple pie instead of the pumpkin this weekend and serve w/vanilla ice cream. YUMMM!

I am posting my latest concoction that I have come up with as a high protein breakfast dish.

I haven't really named this invention yet but it is a Ukranian nalisnyky inspired breakfast omelette. Preparation time is about half an hour from start to ready to eat.

Most important two things you will need, a good quality non stick pan and cooking spray.

Ingredients.

3 whole eggs
3/4 cup of egg whites
Either 1/3 of a cup of low fat mozzarella or 1 cup of 1% cottage cheese.
Dill - optional
Chopped onion - optional

Start by combining 1 egg with 3/4 of a cup of whites in a measuring cup and beat well, do not add water. Spray the pan and put it on at a medium heat, If you preheat it, do not preheat it much at all, I start with a cold pan I find I get better results. I use a 12 inch pan but use whatever size you want the crepe portion of the recipe to be in diameter.

With the mixture you have just created, pour into the pan till it just covers the entire surface of the pan, the idea is a crepe thin layer of egg, if you use a 12 inch pan like I do you will want to make just the one crepe base, if you use a small pan you can make two or maybe even three.

Leave this mixture in the pan on med heat till it is cooked 100% through, it is simply impossible to flip a mixture of egg white this thin part way to me but you are welcome to try if you dare, I have never had anything but total fail without letting it cook right through without flipping it. If you **** up your crepe you can just shout пи́зда for the authentic outburst of disappointment and mix in everything and scramble it without totally messing up your breakfast and ruining your day. Throw the spatula at the wall at this stage if it makes you feel better as well.

Once it is cooked through (test by touching with your spatula and seeing if it comes up clean) you can either give it a flip very very carefully to brown the top just a bit, or you can just slide it out of the pan onto a plate. I go right for the plate. Repeat for a second crepe if you are doing small ones or move on if you made one big one. But leave some of the egg white mixture remaining to add with the last two eggs.

Next add the remaining two eggs to the mix and beat again, add your cheeese, onions if you want onions, and dill to the consistency you want. I use about 1 to 2 tablespoons of dill. Spray down your pan again and pour in the mix, scramble this up till the eggs are done and it's all melted together. Turn and scramble frequently to keep the cheese from making a mess of the pan.

If you used cottage cheese, there is going to be a lot of water content in the final mix, I strain it out after it's cooked by pouring the entire scrambled mixture into a heavy plastic strainer after it's done.

Lastly fill your crepe or crepes to desired amount with the mixture and either flip over like an omelette or roll like a crepe. If you have too much scramble mix for the crepe shells you made just put it on the plate alongside the crepes like a scrambled egg side. I top mine with a little bit of corn and black bean salsa. Omit if you want no carbs.

You may want to add a little salt to your liking during the egg mixing phase, I go with no added salt but that's just me.

And that's it, sit down and enjoy. Entire dish is about 400 calories using mozza as listed above, 500 calories using cottage cheese as listed above, and contains about 71 grams of protein if you used cottage cheese. You can tailor the calorie and macro count to your liking by adjusting the ingredients as it's very flexible for changing the amounts.

If carbs are good with you another alternative is to add some black beans to the scramble mix (but it's no longer a giant nalisnyky at this point, however technically you would have to top it with cream for it to be anyway and nalisnyky has no eggs so who cares). If you want to boost the calories the sky's the limit with egg's and whites and cheese on the scramble mix load it up to suit your calorie and macro requirements.

I'll try to add some pic's of the process and results when I have time.

I chopped up:

1/2 of the heart of an onion (sulfides help lower blood lipids and blood pressure)
garlic clove (same as above)
hot pepper (many benefits to capsicum, one of which it increases metabolism)
-I even sprinkled some cayenne pepper for more heat
egg white (great protein source)
oatmeal (good fiber source, and aids in weight loss)

Mix these together with 1 can of tuna. Once finished, pack it back into the can. From here, simply plop it back out of the can, onto a cooking pan. Brown each side, and you have a perfectly mixed, cooked, and shaped tuna patty.

My recipe for Tostadas:
Pack of Tostada Shells (Flat Taco Shells)
3lb Ground beef (I prefer 80/20)
1 pack of Taco seasoning
Taco blend cheese (optional)
Lettuce (Chopped)
Tomatos (Diced)
Onions (Chopped)
Salsa or Verde Salsa (its a salsa made of lime)
Last add with cottage/goat cheese.

Cook ground beef until brown,add half a cup of water with taco seasoning, let simmer/blend
add to tostada shell,I like to add taco blend cheese to melt on the beef. add chopped lettuce,diced tomatoes and chopped onions poor on salsa (or salsa verde, or both) and top it off with cottage/goat cheese.

The reason I like this meal is it's simple and the ingredients almost cover the whole nutritional chart

[RossTrainer]

My go-to breakfast most mornings...easy, fast, delicious, great protein punch and almost zero clean-up.

1 whole egg
3 egg whites
1 whole wheat english muffin
1 slice fat-free cheddar cheese
1-2 Tbsp salsa
Fat-free cooking spray

Beat together the egg and egg whites. Spray the inside of a round, flat-bottomed coffee mug with the cooking spray. Pour the eggs into the mug and microwave on high for 90-120 seconds. Run a butter knife around the inside edge of the cup and it should come free easily and slide out like a hockey puck.

Use the other ingredients to assemble a sandwich. If you want, you can add chopped green onion, mushroom or spinach to the eggs. Mix it up and play with it until you find something you like!

[ironryan1234]

ok this is realllll easy, and u might think obvious, but the good thing is its great for keto, and above all u can scoff it in 5-15 mins, unlike dry chicken breast or tuna, which seems like ur chewing on rubber for hrs lol.
get a tupperware container, add 200gms cooked chicken breast, 1tbsn mayonaise, some shredded lettuce, and pepper and mix. DONE!
i make a weeks worth and freeze and eat cold at work, u can add some brown rice or pasta or have in a sandwich if ur bulking!
ive had it in my work bag all day out of the fridge like 12 hrs and ate it heaps of times and its all sweet.
if i get home from work early ill bang it in the mic for 40secs, bit nicer
