Need variety now- My fault, not diet
Yeah, I find now I am eating the same things all the time out of
convenience. I am sooo busy with the kids and also have a tight budget. I can't buy the expensive cheeses, meats and treats I enjoy and I am feeling like I should be eating a wider variety of foods. I cook for the whole family and find I am eating green beans as one of my only veggies!! (the 3 year old crowd thinks green beans rock) My normal menu is: Breakfast--- either a few eggs fried in butter/hard boiled or nothing If i am running around town and get hungry because I skipped breakfast I eat an Atkins Bar Lunch--- Big Salad (Romaine lettuce with grilled chicken breast, maybe some slivered almonds or grated cheddar or feta or gruyere) Oil, vinegar, s&p, garlic powder or Chicken and cheese (if i have gruyere or aged provolone) or If i had breakfast sometimes I skip lunch and have a snack around 3. Atkins bar or tuna or cheese and nuts Dinner---- Roast chicken or Pork chops or pork loin or burgers (I miss lamb and steak but $$$) Green beans with butter or Brocoli Rabe w/Garlic & olive oil or salad if i didn't have it at lunch (maybe a few carrots if i made them for the kids) That's about it!! I am content with food, I don't NEED more variety but I probably should have more differet veggies. I dunno. Any suggestions? Cheap quick veggie recipes? Quick cheap recipes in general? Note: I don't eat Mayo or Mustard and don't like veggies in cheese sauce. Think more mediterenean ) Thanks- JoAnna 176/142/120 started LC 7/04 |
