This weekend we ate tons of pizza, ice cream, birthday cake, fast food, and potluck fare (fried chicken etc.) so I'm trying to think of lighter meals to have to balance out that overfilled feeling we are experiencing. Things that are light on the carbs and cheese. High in protein and veg. Your thought? I'm going to the store in a few hrs!
-
Roasted chicken and salad
-
@kiddosc: excellent idea!
-
Stir fry with lots of veggies. Grilled chicken and veggies (we shish-kabob them). Salad with nuts and egg.
-
@Mae: excellent idea also! We had stir fry last night with brown rice. I wonder if I can do it again and make it seem new again!
-
different veggies and sauce its basically a new thing! Our fav is thin cut chicken with tons of snap peas and broccoli and green onions and water chestnuts and then the sauce is a mix of TJ's goya + sweet chili sauce with some extra crushed garlic.
-
Homemade chicken soup! Veggies, chicken, homemade broth...SO GOOD. Low sodium, etc.
Lettuce wraps!
-
@blackbird: I'm also thinking this because scribble is sick and won't eat solids! He only wants to drink. So soup is a great idea!
-
rotesserie chicken, stir fry, grilled veggies, salads.
-
lettuce wraps!
wrap up either a stir fried ground beef flavoured in asian ways with veggies, or wrap up sliced up steak with appropriate veggies, or your leftover rotisserie chicken with veggies/cheese/salsa
instead of lettuce could also use rice paper wraps
