waddapane 19 Posted September 25, 2013 I am the crock pot Queen. lol. Quartered potatoes with chicken thighs on top. Very tasty and such a small portion only took a few hours in a small crock. Yesterday was 2 baby back rib bones in crock. Often I cook in crock while I am sleeping so food doesn't overcook on my long work days. Plus I can take some for lunch.< /p> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
feelin-lika-cow 68 Posted September 25, 2013 I almost had a break down at the super market tonight. I wanted to buy a chicken to roast it and the only ones they had were 4+ pounds. I don't need to make such a big chicken just for myself. I'm so sick of my diet and eating the same things. I work 12hrs a day and I'm usually too exhausted to come home and cook just for myself. I'm so sick of tacos' date=' chicken and meatballs. And not to mention I don't even remember the last time I hit my Protein goal. Any quick meal ideas that are easy and super high in protein?[/quote']Just read ur post in email...my heart is breaking for you!! I'm a nurse & do 12's at night so I totally feel ur pain!! Not to mention, I just changed jobs so I only have 3 nights/wk now vs 5 at HMA. Anyway, I bring eggs & FF cheese, cottage cheese, a Protein Drink that heats up well (I like muscle milk) lunch meat, Publix chicken, cheese, yogurt etc. I add salsa to the eggs & it's pretty good. Salads are good, but at night I usually want something warm. Good luck Chica!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Then tear it apart to make chicken salad, chicken enchiladas (which you can individually freeze), chicken Soup (which you can individually freeze), and chicken pizza with a low carb wrap... I roasted a chicken on Sunday and tonight we had Asian chicken lettuce wraps and tomorrow in making chicken corn chowder to freeze for "sicky days". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Any quick meal ideas that are easy and super high in protein?[/quote'] I second the crockpot suggestion. I could give you some Indian chickpea recipes, if you're feeling like a non-animal protein. Chili. You can very easily make the filling for wontons into meatballs. Yeah, meatballs, but with a different flavor profile they can continue to be tasty. Roast your chicken, then use leftovers to make chicken stew. Or what I like to do with already roasted chicken is saute it with a mix of chili powders, bell peppers, onion, and garlic. Deli sliced meats with Condiments of your choice like mustard or guacamole. You can eat them plain or with cheese if you like. Shrimp salad. Crab salad. Chicken rollitini (pounded thin chicken breast, with cheese and other fillings of your choice, rolled up and baked). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Any quick meal ideas that are easy and super high in protein?[/quote'] I would've bought the chicken. The possibilities are endless for roasted chicken. I'm in love with low sodium taco seasoning (even better if you make your own) I use the breast after its cooked and shred it, add a little Water & taco seasoning and heat it up in a pan and use it for wraps, salads, dip or my Fav an omelette (sautéed peppers & onions + pepper jack cheese) When it's gets to the end of the chicken, I take the rest of the meat off, boil the carcass w/onion, carrot & celery for a stock and make a Soup. I even make up dishes such as double chicken deviled eggs, boiled eggs cut in 1/2 remove yolk (chicken in the food processor w/egg yolk, mayo, mustard, a little relish, salt & pepper and scoop back in to halved egg white shells) DOS:358 CW:270 SD:1/28/13 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
