what is your favorite healthy and filling dinner?
Dinner is a big meal for me, I need to have it be filling and healthy so I can stay up and study a few hours after without wanting to snack.
My all time favorite lately is a baked sweet potato topped 1/2 cup of black beans and laughing cow cheese mashed together and heated and 1/2 cup of cottage cheese. Its about 400-450 cals... sooo good.
Anyone else?
Mine would have to be 3-4oz of garlic herb baked chicken breast.
With mashed potatoes
and a large salad
About 300-350 calories. Sooo good =D I'm a sucker for mashed potatoes.
I just found these AMAZING spicy veggie bean burgers at the local store - they are only 250cal/patty.
So I make 1 patty and then have some some veggies on the side. Last night was steamed brocollii and fried mushrooms. YUM. I don't have it like a burger - just the patty with a bit of mustard on it.
I think I'm verging on being addicted to them. hahaha
salad w/ a bag of steam fresh veggies, and chicken breast, and a bit of spinach.. very filling but good for you!
Salmon with roasted brussels sprouts that have been marinating in olive oil, lemon juice & garlic!
Grass-fed beef burger with broiled egg plant & onions
Grass-fed bison sausage with peppers, onions, green beans & zucchini
Chicken diced & mixed with spaghetti squash, sun dried tomatoes, water chestnuts, mushrooms & zucchini
**Protein is key when you want to reduce hunger and not have the urge to reach for a snack!
