Thumbs up Food column

I was wanting to add one more aspect to our visits to this site because we come here daily looking for information, sisterhood, and support. I was wondering if we could exchange our daily menu. For example, today I eat brocolli, rice and organic chicken. I don't really want to eat the samething tomorrow so I was wondering what else was on the menu? What did you guys eat, today, so I can consider it for tomorrow.

So, if you ate something different let us know so we can consider it for the next day's meal. Please, post what you ate today (especially if it was good) so we don't get to boring with the healthy foods.

I like this idea...sometimes I just can't think of new things to cook...

I am making the standard for dinner tonight - chicken soup. we had a roasted chicken the other night, so I set the leftover meat aside and boiled down the bones for my stock. I bought fresh veggies (carrots, celery, onions, peas, corn, lots of garlic) yesterday and have my herbs growing in the back (I like basil, thyme and parsley in my soup). I use brown rice pasta. I like it better than the whole wheat pasta. Not as gummy. My kids don't like the whole wheat, and they don't even notice a difference in the brown rice pasta. I put salt and pepper to taste and also some turmeric (gives it a nice golden color) and a dash of cayenne.

Last night I made Fettuccini Alfredo with grilled veggies. Grilled baby zucchini, red onions, red and green peppers, snap peas, garlic, scallions, broccoli. Again, I used brown rice pasta. I use 2 kinds of grated cheese for the sauce - Pecarino and Parmesan, fat free half and half, s & p, parsley, garlic and a dash of butter (optional - but I am also cooking for kids). You can add chicken to the mix - sometimes I do and sometimes I don't. The kids like it either way.

Talking Hello My Little Lily!!

Yesterday afternoon I made baked skinless stuffed chicken, the stuffing was a chestnut/apple and I baked it in the same casserole dish as our sweet potato. Yummy yummy for the tummy!! It steamed up lovely and allows me to go to work today and know he has another piece of chicken to eat while I am gone. The vegetable was beets, not my favorite at all but very good for you. There were avacados with fresh ginger and thinly shaved lemon rinds for the dessert we never ate.

I went to the Breast Cancer Seminar last night and there I picked on salad, more baked chicken (not as good as mine..tehehe!!), mashed potatoes and green beans. Now that I am looking at yesterdays agenda all I can say is OINK OINK!!!

I am hoping you are feeling better My Sweet, you are certainly in my deepest prayers. And remember.....you are NEVER ALONE!!>>Believe51

PS: Awwww...now I want to go to the refrigerator and eat dessert....Aaaaah, it is 8:30 am here!!!

I made chunky avocado with cubed tomato salad -- I add fresh basil to the tomatoes with some slivered red onion with sea salt. Let the tomato mixture sit for a little while and "juice up". Then add the avocado.
Its good over jasmine rice. It does nto need a meat, but obviously you can add chicken if you want more Ooomph!
If you cant find fresh basil, then cilantro will work well too.

My hubby was out of town and I didn't have to cook.
For supper I ate a bag of Hallowe'en chocolate bars.

This is a great idea... I am always looking for healthy recipes! I will not, however, share what I had last night (it involved Panda Express). Anyway, I am always so good, sometimes I just have to eat junk.

My goodness, where are you getting the energy to cook? Chemo often has me feeling like it is too much trouble to get upright by the end of the day! I have been taking the easy way out, buying convience foods. I feel very guilty because I used to enjoy preparing healthy meals. (I had been following Weight Watchers guidlines) But I dont have the appetite for alot of things. And the dietician has been urging me to eat the most calorie rich version of things because I was losing too much weight. ..
I have 2 more chemo sessions and hopefully after that I will be able to resume my more healthy habits for my self and my husband. Although I will miss all the cheese I have been enjoying! And ice cream!

Smile Lily...

I do the Breast Cancer diet (I will bump it for for newbie). I also (I'm analytical) have a menu for the week which is as follows ( I make 3-4 meals a week so that I have leftovers for one night AND when I make soup, I make a double batch and freeze the extra):

W/E 10/12/07

Sun Breakfast:

*Eggs (Organic)
Toast (Organic)
Sausage (Organic and while my son LOVES meat, I usually only have 1 and he gets 2 pieces)

*Creamy Tuna Casserole
http://www.chickenofthesea.com/recip...t1.aspx?did=34

ALSO, the "Elegant Salmon Bake" is a favorite...MANY of their recipes are good
http://www.chickenofthesea.com/recip...1.aspx?did=114

* Impossibly Easy Spinach-Parmesan Pie (My mother turned me on to ALL the "Impossible pies" they are SO quick and easy...BUT, I make my own Bisquick so as to keep everything as fresh as possible and to cut down on the preservatives. Also, MOST of my meat, bread and produce I by from farmers at the farmers market so that it is fresh and organic as well as I only occasionally use "frozen" or "packaged" food as I have a HUGE concern for processed/packaged food.
http://www.bettycrocker.com/Recipes/...recipeId=34586

Bisquick
http://www.cooks.com/rec/search/0,1-...ck_mix,FF.html

* Meatloaf
Cranberries (Organic)
Sweet Potatoes

*AND the treat for the week...drum roll please!!!!

Impossibly Easy Pumpkin Pie
http://www.bettycrocker.com/Recipes/...recipeId=35939

I always make a fish meal, vegetarian meal and beef/pork/liver (my mom is slightly anemic so we do liver and onions once every few weeks AND so that we each get our "favorite" meals once in a while and less complaining, we take turns on the beef/pork/liver meals) each week AND one desert (I made carmel-apple bars a few weeks ago and left out enough for each of us a couple of pieces for the week and froze the rest)

Oh, All That Food Sounds Pretty Yummy....
I Was Diagnosed As Being Allergic To All Grains, Except Rice A Month Ago. I Also Am Allergic To Dairy (which I Haven't Eaten In 25 Years Anyway), And Tomatoes. So My Diet Has Been Pretty Limited, But Since Eliminating Those Foods, My Depression Levels Have Dropped Dramatically, As Well As An Extra 20 Lbs I've Shed, And Alot More Energy To Boot!
I Eat Lotsx Of Fresh Vegetables, Deep Sea Fish (the Smaller Ones For Less Mercury), Organic (grass Fed Only) Meats, Nuts, Beans, And An Occasional Piece Of Diabeic Dark Chocolate. I Know That Sounds Boring, But It Has Made A Dramatic Change In My Life.
Amazing How Our Diet Affects Our Lives. The Great News Is That I Have No Osteoporosis Or Osteopenia After All Those Years Dairy Free. My Calcium Has Always Come From Dark, Leafy Greens, Brocolli, Etc.
Last Night, We Had Stir Fried Vegies With Garlic And Ginger, Baked Brown Rice, Wild Caught Salmon And Baked Squash With Nutmeg And Lemon. It Was Soooo Good.
Love And Peaqce, Vickie

Love to cook - here's our last night dinner

I made an easy artichoke sauce from (Moosehead cookbook) one of my family's favorite - pretty good as I am married to a meat & potatoes man! I love it because its super fast/easy. Last night served over spaghetti squash.

Maybe RB will weigh in on the fats

Something like this

1/4 c butter
1/4 c olive oil
4-6 garlic cloves minced
1 140z. can artichoke hearts drained
1 Tbsp fresh lemon juice
fresh or dried basil (to your taste)

melt butter & olive oil, saute garlic til golden not brown add artichokes lemon & basil - simmer a few minutes serve over favorite pasta or veggie


Enjoy!

Salt/Pepper
Add 1 cup light organic cream
Stir and serve with hot crusty bread and salad

Salad

Vicky H - here is a site I came across while researching autism for a friend. They are finding that many children are responding to a wheat/gluten free diet. This company sells ready made pizza crusts made from brown rice flour and even brownies too...Hope this makes your life a little easier and tastier too...

I changed my mind about what to eat for dinner last night....My daughter loves salmon and my son loves coconut shrimp. She hates coconut and he hates fish...I love both. The coconut shrimp is the easiest...First, dip the shrimp in whole wheat flour (rice flour works too) , then dip in egg/milk mixture. I use organic coconut and whole wheat bread crumbs - mostly coconut. For a pound of jumbo shrimp. I use about 2 cups coconut and 1/4 cup bread crumbs. You can bake them, but they are much better fried and cook very quickly. I only use 1/4 inch of oil in the pan. Canola oil tastes better than olive. I find the olive is too heavy for the shrimp. My son loves them plain, I like a dipping sauce. I use (hot) sugar free orange marmalade or sometimes I make an ambrosia to dip them in. I made a batch for my birthday and they didn't even make it to the table. Everyone was eating them as I took them out of the pan!!

The salmon is easy too. I chop up garlic, onions, scallions, zuccini and green and/or red peppers. Saute in a large skillet with a dash of oil. Add teriyaki sauce (about 1/4 cup depending on how much fish/veggies your making) and 2 tablespoons honey. I like fresh ground pepper - no salt is needed because of the teriyaki sauce. Put salmon fillets in pan and cover. Cook until vegies are tender to your liking and fish falls apart easily (10 - 15 minutes).
