Lets share recipes!

I'm trying to lose weight so any quick recipes that I can use with a microwave or George Forman grill is much appriciated. Here is one good one that I've found:

Two frozen boneless skinless chicken breasts (seasoned with Mrs Dash)
One bag frozen seasoned veggies (potatoes, pee pods, red peppers, onions)

I cook the chicken on the Froman grill and cut it up into bite sized pieces. I cook the veggies in the microwave then mix with the chicken pieces...sooo good!! My hubby mixes in a little microwavable brown rice too. I try to skip the rice cause of the carbs.

The meal without rice...is only 320 calories! It make so much that me and the hubby had to share.

Oh, Glad bags for steaming! What a great concept! I can't wait to give these a try. It sounds perfect for the truck since cleanup would be so simple. Thanks for sharing that tip!!!

We are on our last day of home time and I am on my way back to the store for the Glad Steam Bags they had to have created that for truck drivers!

Since I have a very high metabolism rate and have never really had to be calorie conscious would anybody mind if I continue to enjoy occasional 7 course dinners---a 6 pack and a hot dog?

I have a recipe that I really enjoy that is not to bad for you and I discovered I really like wheat spaghetti.

I cook the spaghetti in my rice cooker. Then I cook vegetables without using oil or butter also in the rice cooker. Here are a few of the fresh vegetables I like to use, asparagus, summer squashes, green onions, bell pepper, mushrooms and what ever else I feel like. I add Italian seasoning and also some fresh garlic then I add a can of tomatoes tidbits or the small cut up tomato pieces and their juice. I mix the spaghetti back in with the vegetables and it is great dish. You can also freeze the leftovers in single serve portions for later consumption.
