Yummy dinners by Angela

I'll be posting lower carb dinner ideas here to give you guys ideas.

Tonight: Ham/Turkey Patty with Green Beans
Take ground turkey, mix with bran and onion until it sticks together, and make a big patty. In the middle put a slice of ham and a slice of cheese, fry it til it's cooked and add another slice of cheese on top. Also sautee green beans in some olive oil and add Montreal Chicken Seasoning on top for flavour. (Available at Costco).
This dinner was sooooooooo yummy!

Today I just felt like cereal for supper: 1 Tablespoon wheat bran, 1 Tablespoon oat bran, 2 Tablespoons flaxmeal and 1 cup of water. I boiled the brans first until almost thick and then add flaxmeal because if it's cooked too long the omegas get destroyed. I added soy protein powder afterwards.

Last night I had Spanakopita, here's a recipe http://theodorakis.net/recipes/spanakopita.html I used spelt phyllo dough and made it really thin so there was only 5 carbs worth of dough. I also fried some shrimp in teryaki sauce. Yummm

Mmm tonight was Zucchini Boats. You take a big zucchini, take out the middle and mix that with ground beef, feta cheese, parmesan cheese, onion and whatever else you like! The put it back into the zucchini boats and cook for about half an hour. Very yummy, very low carby. If you search yahoo for zucchini boats there's lots of recipes.

I too am loving your recipies. You are saving my motivation for sure. I made some blueberry cobbler stuff last night. Even my DH liked it. It was exactly what I was looking for. I am very interested in the zucchini boats, what a great thing to do with them! Thanks so much and keep them coming.
P.S. Bread recipies sound great too.

Just a stirfry with shrimp, zucchini, carrots, onion, broccoli, cauliflower, green beans (fresh from the garden ), and Brag Soy sauce (no need for rice or noodles). Yummy, low carb, low fat, and great way to get enough veggies in your diet!

I love this thread! Please keep them coming.

BTW, I love stir-fry (without rice) as well - I don't have a garden, but I buy frozen stir-fry mix and steam it while I stir-fry some chicken. When the chicken is browned, I add the steamed veggies and some stir-fry sauce and LOTS of pepper. It turns out WONDERFUL and is pretty cheap and 10 minutes start to finish!

I also make your "zucchini boats" in green peppers - just scoop out the insides and discard. Sometimes I make the meat with taco seasoning and melt cheddar cheese on top, sometimes I mix in a little spaghetti sauce instead. But the boats sound REALLY good.

Tonight I had peas with pinenuts. You brown the pine nuts (1/2 cup) for a few minutes with garlic and butter, then add peas (3 cups). It's a nice change from boring old peas.
