for Breakfast
peach/mango drink
blueberry Cran Pommegranite drink
for Lunch
Broccoli Chedder soup, I put the soup in a bowl and than boil water and pour the water into it until it is a nice thick sauce to go over top my veggies.
Fine Herb Omlette (have them every weekend for lunch)
for snacks
I have a little of everything but my staples are:
puddings chocolate butterscotch
jelly
peanut butter and chocolate soy puffs mixed.
BBQ ridges
Oh and on the weekend one of the days I have a crepe pizza instead of the evening snack.
I have made cookies out of both puddings and they are quite good.
Crispy cereal (always make it into a pancake though)
Wildberry Yogurt
Vanilla Pudding
Lemon pudding
Pina colada drink (works wonders for when I'm not hungry at all)
RTD vanilla
Ok, I must have missed a recipe somewhere in all of the suggestions. How do you make the cereal into a pancake? I love pancakes and my bf eats them almost every morning. I'm just in Phase I though so I'm really trying to stick a little lower on the carb scale. It might just make my day if I can figure out pancakes and stay OP!!!

Thanks for the tip on the broccoli soup. I have a whole box of it that I haven't been able to trade with anyone I know on IP. I was starting to think it would be wasted because the consistency is a disaster when I follow the directions.

I use egg whites from the carton, and use 1 serving (3tbs), which contain 25 cal.
I use 2 egg whites (1/4 c according to the side of the container), 1/4 tsp baking powder, 1/4 tsp vanilla and cinnomen and nutmeg to taste. Add 'crunched up' cereal - cook as you would a non-IP pancake!

Do you think I should skip the spaghetti until later in the program? Thanks for all the comments!
No, you don't have to skip the spaghetti your only allowed up to 2 of those per week, so get one and try it you'll still lose weight. I like the spaghetti and had it at least once a week when I started the diet. Now I'm just to hooked on the southwest cheese curls, the white cheddar crisps, apple cinn soy puffs, chocolate and peanut butter soy puffs mixed together then separated into 2 servings, Yummy!
I find most of the IP foods yukky, but am able to make these work:
RTD Vanilla
lemon pudding
pina colada drink
herb omelette (with whatever veggies are left over from the night before)
I just tried the chocolate soy puffs (I don't get much restricted yet) and I really liked them.
Can someone please tell me where to find the instructions for turning pudding into cake? Thanks!

Copied from Jenny
-Preheat oven to 350 degrees
-In a blender, combine (2) egg whites, (1) t. vanilla and 2 oz. of water. Blend well
-Pour liquid contents into a bowl, and gently fold in pudding packet. I usually add a little powder, mix it up, add a little more, etc... The final result is a "batter" similar to brownies. And yes, I lick the bowl and spoon
-To bake, I use (2) small corning ware dishes, you could also make them in a muffin tin, and divide them into (3) equal muffins. I spray the bottom of the dish with Pam so the cakes won't stick.
The cakes will get VERY large while baking, and will deflate when cooling. If you put too much batter into a small baking dish, your cakes will literally explode in the oven. It is VERY important to only fill the baking dish or muffin tin 1/2 way. Which is why you will get 2 small cakes or 3 muffins.
-Bake at 350 for 15-16 minutes. Let cool and enjoy a mini cake.
(2) notes:
1). I have only tried this with Lemon, Butterscotch and Vanilla puddings. They have all turned out excellect! I haven't tried with Chocolate because I don't really care for the chocolate pudding, it is very chalky to me.
2). If you are making the cakes in a muffin tin, fill the empty muffin "holes" with water so that the cakes bake evenly.

Good Luck!
Thanks! I'll pick some up next LP shopping trip! I love the southwest curls too and the choc/pb soy puffs! So yum! I think I'll buy them long after I am onto Phase 4! Healthy but feels like a cheat!

I thought the spaghetti was a phase 3 item??? Or, maybe 2?? I just know I can't have it now and I'm too busy trying to mastermind phase 1.
I make the omlette every morning and put tons of mushrooms and green peppers. I like the blue/cran drink, vanilla & dk chocolate pudding. I liked a bar I tried this week, caramel something and the little soy things, not the puffs. I haven't tried the puffs yet and my coach has me not doing the spaghetti yet.
Off IP and on to WF absolutely HATE THE BACON dressing, I ruined my salad with it today and threw it out and the bottle of dressing. The blue cheese dip is tolerable. The caramel is ok. I am sticking to Good Seasons made with EVOO and "legal" vinegar.
