  1. Turkey Parmesan

    We love this version of the Italian classic. Pine nuts replace the usual flour coating, adding crunchy texture and nutty flavor. Serve with whole-wheat pasta. If you don't have Italian seasoning on hand, use dried basil, rosemary, or thyme — or a mix of all three!

    Prep time: 10 minutes

    Start to finish: 15 minutes

    Ingredients

    1 cup low-sugar pasta sauce

    1/4 cup pine nuts, coarsely chopped

    1/2 ounce freshly grated Parmesan cheese (1/8 cup)

    1/4 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning

    1/2 pound turkey cutlets, about 1/3 inch thick

    Salt and freshly ground black pepper

    1 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil

    1 ounce shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese (1/4 cup)

    Instructions

    1.Heat oven to broil. Bring sauce to low simmer in a small saucepan over medium-low heat. Remove from heat and cover to keep warm.

    2. Stir together pine nuts, Parmesan, and Italian seasoning in a wide, shallow dish. Season turkey on both sides with salt and pepper, then dredge both sides in the nut mixture, pressing to adhere.

    3. Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-low heat. Add turkey and cook until coating is golden brown and juices run clear, about 4 minutes per side. If pine nuts brown too quickly, reduce heat.

    4. Place turkey in a baking pan, top evenly with mozzarella, and broil until cheese melts, about 30 seconds.

    5. Spoon 1/2 cup of warm sauce on each plate and top each with a piece of turkey.


  2. Chicken is actually a very delicious, low calorie meal. Protein, too.

  3. Rice is exciting.

    It is what you add to it. Try lots of different flavours. Mushrooms, beans etc.

    Salads are good too, add some lean roast chicken, eggs, olives, etc to make them interesting (I am an Australia and we really go all out with our salads).

    Baked things are good, but they take a bit long.

    Soups are good, soups and bread are great. Try tomato, onion, red lentils, a little bit of ham, garlic, chilli. Cook until soft then blend. Serve with bread (I prefer bap rolls, that is milk bread).

    Steamed vegetables, with a little butter and maybe garlic.

    Healthy food doesn't have to be boring.

  4. DIET SUPER CHICKEN  

    4 whole chicken b*****s, skinned and cut in half

    1/2 tsp. salt

    1/4 tsp. pepper

    1/4 tsp. garlic powder

    1/2 c. diet apricot preserves

    1/2 c. low cal French dressing

    2 tsp. diet apple jelly

    1 tsp. dry chicken bouillon

    Place chicken in a foil lined pan. Combine salt, pepper, garlic powder and sprinkle on chicken. Combine and brush remaining ingredients all over chicken. Bake at 350 degrees F. for 1 hour. Excellent for diabetics or people on diets.


  5. Korean BBQ is good because of high amounts of protein.
