I eat a lot of sandwiches (I use lettuce as the bread) like turkey, tuna salad made with mustard and ff sundried tomato vinaigrette, chicken salad..etc.
A good tortilla pizza hits the spot when I'm craving pizza.
Oh, and I love red meat, but generally buy bison because it is leaner and has less hormones than mass produced beef. I love a bison burger (no bun) topped with a big slice of tomato, fresh mozzarella and a bit of basil.
If you want recipes for some of those things, just go to my blog and you'll find them there. Good luck!

The recipe for apple cake can also be tweaked. Instead of apple butter, apple slices, and graham cracker crumbs on top, you could do a blueberry compote. That actually sounds really good....hmmmmmmm

I also believe in eating a variety of foods and eating balanced - I also believe in allowing for 'treats' and I dont have any no foods.
My staples are 0% greek yogurt, 2% cottage cheese, RF cheese, lean deli turkey (reduced sodium), chicken breasts and lean ground beef. A typical day is greek yogurt w/fruit and granola for bfast, lunch is a lean protein, veggie (usually salad) and fruit, dinner is a lean protein veggie and fruit. Snacks are a protein and typically a carb - cheese and crackers, a fiber one bar or south beach cereal bar.... (I do 3 meals and 3-4 snacks)
This is pretty general if you need anything further let me know!
