Jenn reminded me of my fav shrimp recipe.
fat free cream cheese, Newman's salsa, stir together well and add cut up shrimp. YUM!
I'm trying a new recipe today. Trader Joe's was out of the meat balls so I couldn't try that..I got some of the Jeni-O sweet turkey sausage, will brown it, drain off any fat and add to Classico Florentine spaghetti sauce and bake with a little cheese on top. I used to mke it with green pepper strips and onions too..Further out I'll try that again.

I'll just rattle off a few in no order really; Egg or tuna salad with low fat mayo and Mt. Olive pickle relish (made with Splenda) add a small amount of salt and pepper, a piece of low fat lunchen (chicken, turkey, roast beef) wrapped around a piece of string cheese wrapped around a piece of dark leafy green lettice (add alittle mustard and mayo)...chew well, try Wendy's Chili with cheese (yeh, you don't like beans...but taste can change)...I add my own cheese and their crackers to it, frozen shrimp...brought out of the freezer and put in the microwave for 20 seconds, cottage cheese with fruit, Healthy Choice Lemon Fish Dinner, non fat yogurt with fruit, make your own crock pot...vegetables and whatever meat and seasonings (I add wine...the alc cooks out), a Carl's Jr. chicken sandwich without the bun or just the top half of the bun...scrape off the sauce, different dry nuts...these are what I have in the pantry...almonds, walnuts, sunflower seeds and pumpkin seeds, dry roasted soy nuts (these last three I would get at the health food store), dry roasted peanuts, beef or turkey jerkey, cooked frozen vegetables, fresh spinach leafs (good for potassium and iron...Popeye was right), peanutbutter or almond butter...the kind with just peanuts and salt (your have to stir it up...because the oil at the top). Hope these help. Brian
