Now that I'm cooking more, i taste more, and I'm learning how to cook the 'semi-homemade' way by taste!! I'm experimenting with adding thing, using different meat etc. today I made a chicken lasagne cassarole that was so good! I think it came in under 400 cals a serving too! And i eat it slower bc it takes me sometimes almost an hour to cook a meal, plate it, and sit down.
i eat all my meals on salad plates, and make a point of filling 1/2 the plate with salad, 1/4 w veggies, and then a meat portion. when we have pasta I usually fill everyone's salad plate 1/2 with salad, one slice of bread, and then place a bowl of pasta in the last corner (square plates), it's so filling and I can clear my plate w/out guilt!
