Oh
I love wilted spinach with tomato and onions and garlic! But you can definitely eat it as a salad with dressing. A nice walnut oil or olive oil or canola based dressing would be good (especially when you are maintaining your weight loss and get a few more calories to play with). If you are interested in low cal, there are some great light/low cal organic dressings out there. I love Annie's Naturals Gingerly Vinaigrette. A little healthy fats helps with the absorption of nutrients so low fat (not necessarily fat free) is a good option.
I totally hear you on the cooking thing, but luckily there are literally of THOUSANDS of healthy recipes available on the internet and most of them are pretty easy too. I don't mind cooking but I don't get into elaborate food preparation very often.
My favorite herbs/seasonings to cook with - garlic (LOTS - ha), onions, red pepper flakes, white pepper, basil (fresh if I have it), grated ginger, organo, cayenne, chili powder, cumin
Easy ideas:
* Omelettes - stuff with tons of sauteed or roasted vegetables, a tiny bit of low fat feta, herbs and top with green salsa
* Quesadillas - I make a great quesadilla with a block of frozen spinach, 1/2 can of low fat cream of mushroom soup, garlic, onion, a little low fat cheddar to stick it all together, sun dried tomatoes, diced jarred artichoke hearts, sliced black olives, cayenne, cumin, pine nuts. I make another one with shredded sweet potato (I shred it up with my food processor) a little cumin, a little cayenne and a little sharp cheddar cheese
* Pita - I love red bean and corn pita pockets, with a little bit of low fat cheddar, roasted red pepper
* Pizza - whole wheat crust (Trader Joe's has a good one) or whole wheat pita, or whole wheat English muffin, spicy tomato sauce, garlic, spinach, sun dried tomato, red onion (topping of your choice!) a little bit of low fat feta
* Stir fries - protein of your choice, whatever vegetables tickle your fancy, stir fry sauce (You can also jazz it up with lite coconut milk and curry paste)
* Soups - I make a fabulous spinach/chickpea/leek soup, I also like kale and navy bean, chili with Morning star farms veggie crumbles and 3 kinds of beans
* Roasted vegetables - I love making big pans of roasted vegetables (sweet potatoes, carrots, tomato, cauliflower, red pepper, onions, beets) and eating them over quinoa or whole wheat couscous or brown rice. I usually flavor them with a little pesto or a little spicy stir fry sauce. Leftovers are great to stuff in an omelette or a wrap or a pita
