CELERY & APPLE SALAD
Hands-on time: 10 minutes
Time to table: 10 minutes
Serves 4

DRESSING
Juice of a lemon
1 tablespoon good mustard
1 packet splenda
1 tablespoon olive oil
Salt & pepper to taste

Celery leaves, chopped (or other salad greens)
2 ribs of celery, sliced thin on the diagonal
1 Granny Smith apple, cored and chopped [2007: honey crisp, cored & sliced]

Whisk together the dressing ingredients in a small bowl.

Arrange celery leaves or salad greens on four small plates. Add the celery and apple. Drizzle with the dressing.

PERFECT PAN-FRIED BROCCOLI
Hands-on time: 15 minutes
Time to table: 20 minutes
Serves 4

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 pound broccoli, florets and stems, trimmed (see instructions)
3 tablespoons water
1/8 teaspoon sea salt
Sprinkle of fresh ground black pepper

Pan: Heat oil over medium high in a large skillet (it will need a cover later) until thinking about beginning to smoke. It's hot enough when a few sprinkles of water flicked from your fingers sizzle.

Meanwhile, trim & start the stalks: Slice off the rough end of the stalk. Cut the 'trees' off the 'trunk' but put aside for a moment. Peel the stalk with a carrot peeler, then slice cross-wise 1/4 inch thick, on the diagonal to create more surface area. Add stalks to the hot skillet, flat sides down in a single layer and let cook, without stirring for 2 minutes. While the stalks cook, trim the florets into pieces 1-1/2 inches long (usually you can just cut a floret into quarters, cutting through its branch). Add florets to skillet, toss well to combine, cook without stirring for 1 - 2 minutes until bottoms just begin to brown.

Stir together water, salt and pepper in a small bowl til salt dissolves. Add to skillet, cover and cook until broccoli is bright green but still crisp, about 2 minutes. Uncover and let continue to cook until liquid evaporates, stems are tender and florets are tender-crisp, about 2 minutes. Serve immediately.

"Fried" Chicken or Fish

Crush up Garlic (or plain) melba toast very fine. Coat your chicken breast or fish filet and pan "fry" in about a tablespoon of olive oil - I usually brush a little of egg white on the meat to make the melba stick...it is surprisingly good!

Put the Melba Toast and Mrs. Dash in a blender and crush to make bread crumbs. Place the crumbs in a ZipLoc baggie then add the cubed Chicken Breast and a little pepper. Shake to coat all the chicken well. Place these coated chicken bites on a cooling rack that is place on a cookie sheet. Spray with a little Pam and bake in the oven at 350 for about 15 min. Time will vary with the size of the Chicken Nuggets.

This can be used as Supper and is 1 protein and 1 Bread/Starch

Faux Macaroni and Beef

My family loves macaroni and beef (original recipe uses ground beef, yellow onion, salt pepper, tomato soup, elbow noodles) so this is the MRC way to do it - and get the same flavor. My new favorite!

1 lb. ground buffalo
handful of chopped green onions
sea salt
pepper
2 tomato supplements
1 spaghetti squash

Cook the spaghetti squash by cutting in half, scraping out seeds with a spoon, place both halves face down in a baking pan with some water on the bottom, bake at 350 for 35-45 minutes until it is soft when poked. Once cooked, let cool, and then use a fork to remove the "meat" and it will come out in spaghetti-like strands. Brown the buffalo with sea salt and pepper and green onion, then add the 2 tomato supplements, then add water to make it like a sauce. Let simmer for flavor.

Divide into 2 portions, and pour over 4 oz. of the spaghetti squash.

This provides 6 oz. of protein for the Meta Slim Plus plan, 4 oz. cooked vegetable, 1 creamy supplement per serving.

Default Breakfast Cups

1 slice 40-50 cal bread
1 whole egg
1 oz hard cheese - shredded.

Heat oven to 400 degrees F. With a rolling pin flatten each slice of bread. Cut 1 inch slits in the bread, cutting from corner to center. Spray both sides lightly with spray butter. Carefully place in a muffin pan; overlapping sides as needed to line the cup. Bake 8-10 min. to toast.

While that is going....whip your egg with a little water and then scamble in a pan. Season as desired. Place the egg in your cup; top with cheese. Place back in the oven just to melt the cheese.

Use as your protein and bread for breakfast!

Default Yummy filling snack

I have no idea if this can be on here (if you can have a HNS and FiberFill together) but I tried it tonight and love it. If anyone knows let me know

I put lots of ice, a little water, a lemon HNS (not the pudding just the clear one) and a FiberFill mixed drink. Ate it as a frozen dessert kind of thing. It is awesome!

Yes you can mix your Fiberfill with HNS or any other kind of calorie free sugar free sodium free drink.

I made myself the *best* lunch today..so,thought I'd share... I had some leftover ground venison from last night when I made the "Stuffed Green Peppers" from this site (I substituted the ground beef for Ground Venison..) So, I took:
5 Large Mushrooms, stems removed (about 5 oz raw weight)
4 oz of ground venison (if you can get your hands on it, my Husband is a hunter, so we had a well-stocked freezer, and the Venison he got this year is delicious, and very lean!)
A sprinkle of parmesan cheese.
I also used some fresh garlic, and about a 1/4 cup of finely chopped spinach and rosemary. I sprayed a pan with olive oil Pam, wilted the spinach, sauteed the garlic and rosemary until fragrant, and then I browned the meat a bit with the above mixture. I then stuffed the mushrooms with the meat mixture and placed them on a small cookie sheet, sprinkled the tops with Parmesan, and then baked them for about 10-15 minutes at 350 degrees.
Since the mushrooms release a lot of water when cooked, I believed this fell under the category of "4 oz cooked veggies" and "4 oz. of protein"
Enjoy!

So here are the recipes from yesterday's crock pot cooking class:

Creamy Green Bean Dish:
6 oz Green Beans
1 pkg Cream of Chicken Supplement - dissolved in 4-6 oz of water
1 tsp Butter Buds
1/4 cup mushrooms
2tsp green onions

Place green beans, onions, and mushrooms in chicken bouillon supplement adding butter buds into crock pot. Cook on medium for 4 hours

Makes 2 servings and replaces 1/2 clear supplement, 4 oz veggies
*May add chicken to crock pot for full meal*

Savory Cabbage:
1 cup cabbage (can use pre-shredded angel hair cabbage to save time)
1 Tbsp Parsley
1 package artifical sweetener
1/2 tsp ground black pepper
1 package chicken bouillon supplement
4-6 oz water
Caraway seeds to taste

Combine all ingredients and cook on medium heat until tender
Makes 1 serving and replaces 4 oz cooked vegetables and 1 clear supplement

Chili:
16 oz ground beef, buffalo, venision or turkey breast
2 packages of taco seasoning or chili seasoning (Wal-Mart has no sodium chili seasoning made by Williams Food)
4 packages of cream of tomato supplement
24 oz of water
salt, pepper and other seasoning if desired

Mix all in crock pot and cook on low all day. Can add green peppers, green onions, and celery if you wish up to 16 oz and this will then replace your cooked vegetable.

Makes 4 servings - replaces 4 oz protein and creamy supplement. You may also add 8 oz of kidney beans if serving is at night. Suggesstion was made to only add kidney beans to your own bowl, so you could take leftovers for lunch. The kidney beans at night would replace your starch.

I will post the other 3 in a seperate post. They were all very flavorful and something I think the whole family would enjoy. Let me know what you think if you make any.

Default Hot Drinks

This is pretty basic, but yummy. For a hot mocha drink, mix your Creamy Hot Cocoa HNS with hot decaf coffee. Really nice on a cold afternoon if you're wanting an HNS mid-afternoon. Or, of course, for breakfast.

Another good hot drink - use a spicy decaf tea bag (herbal or regular decaf tea like Constant Comment); mix with an orange or lemon HNS. (I mix the hot water & HNS, then add the tea bag & let it steep.)
