Answer 2

It is important for diet success that you find or modify recipes you already like for example if you used to eat 1 hamburger a week try replacing it with an all breast meat turkey or chicken burger on whole grain bread or just nestled in a bed of lettuce and topped as you would regularly (toss in some croutons or tortilla chips instead of fries). Only you can really make a successful menu for your diet take your favorite foods and search the name plus low calorie - you will be surprised at how many options there are. I personally am a huge fan of weird Mexican foods like cactus (Nopalitos) and lots of Mediterranean and middle eastern foods where just eliminating animal fat and subbing either peanut oil or Olive oil will hugely reduce the calories. There are so many great low cal and low fat foods the more important thing is eating what you like and enjoy so you don't feel like you are missing out. For a good start at recipes that you can even peruse by ingredient start with AllRecipes.com or RecipeZarr.com and see what lights you up! Good Luck!

Answer 3

There are so many, what do you like? Here is one relatively low cal recipe that I make often.

Hammer some chicken breast so they are about 3/4" thick. Then rub them with some olive oil, salt and pepper. Then, coat them with grated parm cheese. You really should mash the cheese in the meat for a good coating. Put in the oven on a non stick pan or non stick foil paper for about 25 minutes on 400. Serve with broccoli that has been sauteed in olive oil, garlic salt and pepper. If you are not afraid of carbs serve with a crunchy bread. My family loves this.

Really, when I am looking for flavor I tend to go for no fat salad dressings. They really add a lot of flavor to meat and fish. I often do chicken breast that has been marinated in Italian dressing on the grill or in the oven. My 5 year old daughter loves shrimp marinated in a no fat Asian flavored dressing. She can eat nearly a pound and doesn't want anything else.

I know with all these low fat ingredients it sounds nasty, but a taco salad I make always go over well.

Sautee 1 lb. of ground chicken or turkey breast. I prefer turkey, but it doesn't really matter. Season as you would for any taco meat or use a pack. Then cut up 1 head of lettuce, 2 tomatoes, 1 red onion and mix with 1 package of low fat shredded cheddar, 1 container of no fat sour cream, 1 small jar of salsa, and 1/2 bag of baked tortilla chips that have been broken up. It looks really nasty, but it tastes really good. Make sure that you salt and pepper the veggies before you add the rest.

Also, check out some diabetic web sites. They have great recipes that are low in fat, calories and carbs. Just make sure that you add some salt and pepper, they tend to be a little bland.

Answer 4

this recipe can be made with chicken,shrimp,or fish.
I sprinkle my chicken with season all seasoning,then saute it in the skillet til done.You may take it off the bone but it falls off anyway after awhile. I pour about a cup of picante sauce,I use mild,but may use spicier.I'm from texas so I use Pace picante only.You add a little either half and half or whipping cream,only about 3-4 Tbsp.let this simmer for about 20-30 min.the longer the chicken stays in the sauce the more the chicken absorbs it...it is extreamly good! lo-cal,and lo-carb.
