Sandy17051 8 Posted February 17, 2014 I like doing foil packets on the grill. I get a piece of foil, but a little "I can't believe it's not butter" down, then I put chicken breast, veggies, steaks, fish, pieces of sweet potato, anything you like. Then I just add a little bit of Mrs Dash (low sodium) or just a little bit of pepper and sea salt. Once you have your goodies in the foil, fold it up so nothing leaks out. Cook it on low, flipping a few times until the meat is done. You could also do this with the Tyson grilled chicken breast strips and frozen veggies, it just won't take as long. One thing I have been doing, when I cook meat for myself, I always cook extra, then I put it in a freezer bag and freeze it. That way you're one step ahead for the next meal. When I go out to eat I order a big salad with the dressing on the side and ask for a small plate. I'll get the rest to go and it will end up being at least 3 or more meals for myself. One thing I have found since surgery, I'm planning ahead with every meal, trying to come up with creative ways to make food. 1 motherearth reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
motherearth 23 Posted February 19, 2014 Jewel, i sent you an email regarding this but wanted to share with others in case they were interested. As far as the fried cheese is concerned. I use sharp cheddar cheese that i grate. I use a small non stick egg pan to fry about a 1/2 cup at a time. spread cheese evenly into pan on med heat. Allow edges to get golden brown then turn over and fry other side to a golden brown color. Once golden take out of pan and drain on paper towel to cool. Once cooled, break into bite size peices and keep in air tight container. Muffin in a Minute: 1 Tbls. butter melted in coffee cup (microwaveable) add 1/4 flaxmeal, 1/8 tsp baking powder 1 tbls. cinnamon 1 packet stevia 1 egg 1 tsp vanilla mix well in cup and then microwave for one minute. Take cup out of microwave and tip upside down for muffin to slide out. You can buy liquid smoke in the store on your condiment or seasoning isle. It comes in a small glass container. I use misquite flavor. If you can't find it, ask your grocer for liquid smoke and they'll take you right to it. I also make a flaxmeal parmesian sandwish roll. I use a plastic bowl the size of a burger bun. Melt 1 tbls. butter in bowl add 1/4 cup flaxmeal 1 tbls. parmesan cheese 1/8 tsp baking powder 1 tsp onion powder 1 egg mix well and flatten evenly in bowl with fork and microwave for 1 minute. Once finished take out of microwave and turn bowl upside down on saucer and allow to cool. can be kept in ziplock bag sealed and kept in fridge. Hope that was easy enough for you. if you have questions, please don't hesitate to ask. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
