stacechase 251 Posted September 2, 2013 I'm still on puréed foods, so my meals are rather uninteresting! However, if you have Pinterest, feel free to check out my board of Healthy Chow for some ideas! Hope it helps! http://m.pinterest.com/stacechase/healthy-chow/ 2 need2bthin! and adargie reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Catherine707 253 Posted September 2, 2013 Sweet and sour turkey meatloaf. 258 calories per 1/4 serving and 23 grams of Protein. Easy to make and tastes great! It also freezes well. Here is the recipe: 1 lb of ground turkey (I use 93/7), 1/4 cup sugar free apricot jam, 1/4 cup Heinz chili sauce (like ketchup but has more flavor), 1/2 t minced garlic, 1/2 cup bread crumbs, 2 T dehydrated onion. Mix jam, chili sauce and garlic in a bowl. Add breadcrumbs, turkey and onions. Mix well. Form into loaf in a pan spayed with non-stick cooking spray. Cook at 350 degrees for 50 minutes. It is Yummy! 1 need2bthin! reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cms213 119 Posted September 2, 2013 I wanted to do either tamale pie or turkey chili in the crock pot but they both take 10 hours. I figured this out at 2pm today... So I think I'm going to make lasagna cupcakes! I haven't made them before but I see them all over the place. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
butterfly_gal 151 Posted September 2, 2013 I threw in two small boneless, skinless chicken breasts into the crockpot with a jar of medium salsa. Shredded it and I am enjoying the deliciousness as we speak! Try it if you haven't already. It is soooo tender and juicy and very healthy! This will be probably four more meals for me 2 adargie and need2bthin! reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

butterfly_gal 151 Posted September 2, 2013 I had them in the crockpot for almost 7 hours, but they were done after about 5 hours. I just let them soak in the salsa juices for the additional 2 hours. I had it on high for 2 hours, then switched to low for the remaining time. It is very tasty. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What is the 1/4 serving? 1/4 of the whole meatloaf? May try to adapt this to muffin tins since it's just me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

920amy 409 Posted September 2, 2013 I made what I call Thai Bastard chicken soup: carrot, red bell pepper, crimini mushrooms, shredded white meat chicken, swansons Thai Ginger broth, coconut milk, lime juice, fish sauce and cilantro. Makes a huge pot (8 quarts), MORE than enough for dinner for 8 plus leftovers to freeze. About 270 calories per (12 oz) serving, which is about 2 times more than I can eat, so really only about 135 calories per serving, but you can also cut calories way down by cutting out the coconut milk or cutting the amount used in half. I mix 1 scoop of unflavored Protein powder with mine to keep the Protein up, but for the family, I serve as is. 1 gamergirl reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It freezes so well in individual bags that I cook a meatloaf, divide it into 4 portions and package individually. 1 MIJourney reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
