Answer 1

Chicken with Mango Salsa

*Grill a chicken breast, flavor with a little salt and pepper
*Top with homemade or storebought mango salsa

For a good mago salsa recipe try: Mango Salsa:
2 mangoes, small dice
1 medium red onion, small dice
1 cucumber, peeled, seeded, small dice
2 jalapeno peppers, minced
1/4 cup cilantro leaves, chopped
1/2 tablespoons ancho chile powder
2 large limes, juiced
2 tablespoons olive oil
Salt
Pepper


To make mango salsa, combine all ingredients together in a medium bowl and stir well. Keep refrigerated until ready to use.

Quick, easy, healthy, delicious.

Answer 2

Try a stir fry. cook some meat, less than one serving per person and chop it into pieces about 2" by 1" by 1/2", cut up raw veggies, (peppers, carrots, onions, broccoli, potatoes celery, frozen corn Anything else you have handy, doesn't really matter what just 3 or 4 different kinds), and throw it all in a frying pan together with either a little oil or 1/2 cup of broth, and stir til its all cooked. My kids begged for it at least once a week, and didn't even realize how good it was for them. I used to add 2 cups of rice and some soya sauce or a cooked package of ramen type noodles just before it was done to make it go farther.

Answer 3

Since recipes take way to long to type out (for full meals and such), I would like to recommend "The New Dieter's Cookbook" by Better Homes and Garden. I have the 1st and 3rd additions. They are FANTASTIC. Each recipe has a photo, time to prepare, time to cook and calorie count. Covers every thing from breakfast to desserts. Not only are they all easy and low calorie, but they are really tasty!

Good luck~!

Answer 4

I recommend the cookbook "Butter Busters". They show you how you can replace 5 items in your kitchen with low fat substitutes and then build recipes around them.
