When I'm in a situation where I did not pack a lunch or am out shopping or something, a small chili from Wendy's does the trick. It has 190 calories and 14g Protein.< /p>

WOW, that much Protein is awesome. I just wish they weren't so heavy on the onions! Wendy's chili is great until I start burping it for hours!!!!! That is why I love to make that other recipe at home, I can skip the onions and enjoy myself.

Cranberry Orange Breakfast Barley

Shopping List:

1 cup barley, 2 cups orange juice, 1/2 cup dried cranberries, 3 tbsp. honey, 1/4 tsp. Simply Organic Cinnamon

If you have to up your Protein....how about using Quiona?

I will buy some barley because I do LIKE your recipe. It would be like eating a healthy danish but with a spoon. Your recipe goes with my nuttyness on this way of life... eat foods that make you feel and look like you are endulging, yet you are not and..benefit..is the weight loss...

If you have any ones like this can you please post or send directly to my email.

I am soooo with you on this. I have many times been on the go and going through the drive thru at Wendy's for chili is the easiest thing to do and it's easily eaten while driving.

The smell is intoxicating......... LOVE...LOVE... Wendy's Chile...our Weight Watchers has always put it on its required foods list........ me, I loved the founder of Wendys because he tried to get kids out of Foster Care and every Halloween I purchase the little books of shakes and give it to the kids for trick or treat....This year I left a book for myself (for those days)... the small size is toooo much for me...

I have a friend got a call from her school principal. Her son goes to a jewish school and the Rabbi called. He asked her what was wrong with her son?

Let me tell you, she said nothing wrong, as her heart fell. He called because all the kids chucked down the macaroni and cheese, and her son did not.

NOW, who does not love macaroni and cheese and theirs are made fresh.

So she RAN repeat RAN to school to check out her son (4 th grade)....

It turns out he would not eat it because it tasted funny...did not taste like hers

WHY HERS???????????

She adds the yellow can of seafood seasoning with the crab on it to everything for a zing....... and it is Kosher

WOULD YOU BELIEVE>...

DS my fresh macaroni and cheese (did not tell him... but he said good cheese)

and add to fish and I make everything from scratch and it is soooooo good

The seasoning is OLD BAY and it comes in a yellow tin with a red/orange top sold in the spice section......states used for seafood and has three pictures of seafood on it:w00t::confused::w00t:

Crispy Thin Crust

Sicilian

I can only eat thin crust pizza. This one is excellent tasting and goes down if I eat very slowly. I also dip mine in Ranch Dressing which helps. It really helps with the pizza cravings. I was a "Pizza Queen" before the lap-band!

My clan would not eat that...but OMG...looks so good!

I had that problem at the beginning with the pasta...it is the chewing thing try rice.... but my nutritionist wants me to eat more Protein so..........

As for your post about the pizza, I could not believe it.. your link showing the product is sold here at my local store and NEVER thought of buying it. Who thought that pizza would have the Protein in it..

Had to reedit this ....

I do not belong to sams club... I will ask my friend to get the chicken for ME.....it sounds so good

I am a cosco person

Kelloggs Special K Multi-Grain Crackers .... 17 have 90 calories, 2 grams of Protein, 16 net grams of carbs (or one carb exchange if you're still operating on a diabetic exchange mindset). Crunchy. When I want a carb, I can have my whole grain carb, my crunch, and they taste really good. There is another flavor with Tomato and basil -- same stats, but I don't like them as much.

These are fairly new on the market.

I didn't know that their chili was low in calories. That's good to know while I'm out and about.

I do not own a microwave...my DH put alumin foil in it twice...so no microwave BUT a friend from my group... buys the Wendys chili and puts it in freezer and mcrowaves it when needed.

It works for her!!!
