What ya eating tonight?

[kristlynngirl 184]

I just bought a two quart slow cooker. It so little but its fine because its just me. Anyone have any good recipes that I can cook in it?

I make chicken in mine all the time. Buffalo chicken dip too which is a good high Protein snack with whole grain tortilla chips or crackers. I do boneless pork ribs in it too.

Pulled pork. Came right back up. Now I'm trying a Protein Bar. I feel like I'm in reverse. Lately I've been only able to tolerate softer foods.

I think we had surgery the same day and I've been going through this too...plus food like cottage cheese nit even going down. I've been wondering what the heck.

I found nut chips at Walmart. They are made from almonds and Brown rice...no wheat...yummy to eat worth dips as well as salsa.

Oh it's SO good! Technically' date=' it's cauliflower and cheese, but I make it like how I love my Mac and cheese!

1 c. Low fat sharp cheddar

1/2 c. Skim milk

1 tsp mustard powder (or mustard)

Salt and pepper

2 steamer bags of cauliflower (I'm a busy gal so I use frozen. Lol)

Cook your cauliflower then chop the heck out of it (you don't want it "mashed", still leave some small chunks). Combine first 4 ingredients in sauce pan and cook on medium, constantly sitting until cheese sauce consistency is reached. Mix cauliflower with the sauce and spread in baking pan. Top with more cheese or crushed Special K Protein Cereal and bake for 20 min at 350! enjoy![/quote']

We did this tonight with steak. I had the hugest head of cauliflower ever so I made a batch and a half of sauce. My son is still stuffing himself!

Crab meat sauteed in a little butter and garlic with some montreal chicken seasoning. Good stuff. Still scared to try vegetables. I lived vicariously through my husband and his gorgeous salad lol.

Today was roasted chicken risotto day. Had a bit of Cupcake Moscato, as well. Small and highly satisfying.

I make a lot of "base" meats with my slow cooker. For instance, skinless boneless chicken breast with low sodium taco seasoning (or whatever seasoning you want) and use that for different things such as spinach wraps, salads, omelettes etc. I also do the same thing with other kinds of meat. Pot roast & chili is really good and effortless in a crockpot.

Had BBQ chicken & mashed potatoes last night. Weirdest thing is that after 2 bites of chicken, I was stuffed. Guess it was a tiny pouch day. My cats loved the leftover chicken.
