I'm all about pre-cooking healthy stuff so I have Protein meals on hand. Some of you might remember my "cabbage meals" I've posted about.

Well, here's my latest and OMG it is SO GOOD!!!

Taco Spinach salad

Pre-cook about a pound or so of ground turkey or lean ground beef, add taco seasoning. This is your meat topping.

Have on hand shredded mozarella, grape tomatoes, lite ranch dressing, black olives if you like.

Add up to 4 oz taco meet over non-cooked spinach leafs to start the salad (I prefer baby spinach-organic as it lasts longer and has more nutritional value)

Sprinkle with mozarella, add tomatoes and olives to taste, Add Salad Dressing or salsa to taste

It is delicious, filling and fits the diet mode!

Yum! I precook meat and season it with taco seasoning. Then I put it into Ziploc bags and freeze it. If you freeze it in 3 oz portions you can thaw it in the microwave in 3 minutes or less:)

OMG that is a great idea! AND it will keep my kids from eating it ALL in one night and leaving me nothing low carb to eat! :(

Sounds great!! I can't wait to be on solid foods :(

Speaking of recipes, what seasonings are OK to use. I would have never though taco seasoning would be ok, so I'm interested to know what else we can use!

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
