What Do You Eat On Induction?

Hi All,
I have just started induction again. The only drawback I am experiencing
is boredom. You see I am really poor and don't have a kitchen. And I work
the graveyard shift. So all of those luxurious recipes Dr. Atkins touts are
a little out of my ability right now. Basically it is scrambled eggs and
sausage, whatever cheap meat and vegetables I can stick into a microwave,
and salami and cheese. One reason I am doing Atkins is I am a serious
carb/sugar addict and want to break my dependence through Induction, but the
boredom of the diet for me leads to a lot of tempting cravings. Plus I seem
to be one of those people who is always hungry on Induction. Filling up on
meat can get quite expensive. Does anyone have any quick and tasty(and
cheap) recipes or foods they like on Induction and OWL? Something to spice
up the diet?. Thanks.

you don't need much in the way of a kitchen to make tuna salad, or to
make veggie salads. use cabbage instead of lettuce - you don't have to
clean it, just chop it. add chicken or turkey or roast beef (i buy the
stuff that's sliced for deli sandwiches) and some dressing, toss and
eat. when you're past induction, you can throw in some walnuts or
sunflower seeds. yum. tuna salad is easy: all you need is a bowl, a
spoon, a can opener and a knife (optional). i make mine with one can of
tuna and one small avocado. some mayo, some lemon juice, some salt and
some pepper, eat. i'm not doing induction, so i have my tuna salad with
wasa crackers ... but you can skip that part

Meat and salad vegetables

Some good induction-safe veggies that don't require a kitchen: green
bell peppers, cucumbers, celery. I just like to munch these out of
hand. Eat them with some kind of sour cream or mayyonaise-based
dressing or dip (ranch is good, and it comes in jars and squeeze
bottles).

For meat, you can always get burgers and grilled chicken sandwiches
with extra veggies and mayo, then don't eat the bun. (Asking for a
fork helps.) Some delis will sell you boiled eggs. And you can get all
kinds of meat in cans - tuna, spam, chicken, deviled ham, and my
favorite (and one of the best for you), sardines... packed in tabasco
sauce for an extra kick!

I layer a plate with pepperoni, put mozzarella cheese over it and
stick it in the microwave until the cheese melts. Like pizza without
the sauce and crust. I love it.

I would lat it over a paper towl. I hate all the grease in it and you would
be amazed how much gets removed when you do this.

makes it crunchier too.

if you like Chips these are also good. but better to "fry" them on the stove
till crispy.

but be warned eat while warm. not as good once they cool down.
