Atleast 5 out of the 7 days of the week i'm eating chicken and sometimes its twice from lunch to dinner. I know there is turkey and roast beef isn't bad, but chicken is easy.
if anyone has food ideas please feel free
Chicken, chicken, chicken..................i'm gonna start to sound like one soon

I mix a can of tuna, a can of chickpeas and toss it with a tablespoon of olive oil and a little bit of salt and stuff it in a pita with arugula.
eta - I should add that I don't mean that I put the whole mix into one pita!

I get these 92% fat free hamburger patties, and they are 4 weight watcher points, which is fine for dinner. I have that on weight watcher bread and a bowl of soup. I cook them on the george foreman and it gets rid of some of the fat, too. I don't eat them all the time, like maybe once or twice a month, but they are a nice change from chicken.

Love hummus-I get the classic one has only 3pms of fat and tons of fiber. Dip using carrots or red peppers.
sushi and sashimi are staples in my diet
Turkey burgers and turkey rock. I share some with my kitties. Kitties love turkey.
I eat lowfat grilled cheese sandwiches..WW rye bread and 2% american slices.
Lots of soup. I mean lots! Soup is my salad. Belly can't take the salad too much.
Veggie lowfat quesedillas..let me know if you want the very simple quick recipe.

I know turkey is a lot like chicken, but turkey meatballs, and turkey sausage, and turkey meatloaf are a welcome change from grilled chicken. Especially if you have some pasta etc with it.

2lbs of lean 99% Fat free ground turkey (shady brooke or purdue) OR ground veal 2 eggs 1 cup of water 1 pkg low sodium stouffers stuffing or any flavor 1 pkt of onion soup mix
Mix all ingredients, put in a 12 cup muffin pan. Bake @ 350 for 35 minutes.
Turkey muffins WW 2 or 3 pts each. (need to check) They are yummy and very filling!!!

Re: who here that is dieting...............
Instead of using ground red meat I use ground chicken and turkey. You can have turkey burgers, meatloaf, etc.
