Nah but a WOK is nice to have

 

Chicken Breast
Pork Loin
Any fish
Whole wheat pasta with low sodium sauce

 

I try to get the majority of my carbs in the morning, then a little at lunch, and try to avoid them at night. Grilled chicken and brown rice majority of the time, with greenbeans and hot sauce!

Steak and fish are all good too, key is just balancing the proteins, carbs, and good fats.

 

good luck with your health!!

some constructive criticism? your pot roast will be a BILLION times better if you do some cooking prior to dropping everything into the slow cooker. brown all the meat and veggies. that malliard thing is amazing to flavor.

i'll post up some recipes tonight. for health, i have pretty much cut out fast food, and most restuarants. my wife thinks i cook better anyways..and it is cheaper.

 

Ya I always brown my roast before hand I guess I did not put that

 

A regular in my household is...

green curry with chicken

chix breast
coconut milk
green curry paste (which ever brand u prefer)
green bell peppers
thai basil
bamboo shoots
white pepper
brown sugar
salt to taste
fish sauce

And a nice side of your favorite rice.

Sometimes I puree additional Serrano chiles, garlic, ginger and scallions when mixing it up or use a red paste instead.

 

you guys are making me hungry!!!

MurderedOut/Pogiboy, i'm gonna try that pot roast when i get home, it looks awesome and sounds pretty easy to make!

Thanks for the tips guys.

I've always been a fan of grilled fish.
Cut it open, lemon slices inside and on top, some olive oil, your favorite seasoning, grill it up for a while til its cooked through and DIG IN.
It cooks fast and stays really moist.

damn i'm hungry....

 

Lol ya post roast is so bomb I just had the left overs last night lol! You can also do the same thing with corn beef that is the stuff I want to make that next week

 

some of my healthy meals.

Yah, my girlfriend showed me how to cook the brown rice with less water than recommnded, and in the rice cooker.

It comes out a little hard, but (to me) tastes way way less bad than any other way of cooking it i have had to experience

 

i'm chinese, so i eat rice. big surprise.

anyways, i eat brown rice exclusively now..well 80%. korean brown rice is fantastic. blindfolded, i bet you couldnt tell. the rice is a med grain, and it cooks up fluffy like white rice.

everything in moderation, really. i rarely eat out anymore. health and money reasons.

 

i tossed my wok...
