More Recipes

Not sure why but this post is not saving my spaces between paragraphs. Sorry if it is diccifult to read. Forgot a recipe in my last post, so thought I would post a couple... Crunchy quick Salad 2 short stalks of Celery chopped horizontally into small bit sized pieces 1/2 orange Bell Pepper cut into bit sized pieces 1/4 cup of Cottage cheese (I really like Meadow Gold brand or Cream o Weber") Place cottage cheese in a small container and stir in veggies. This was so good! Crisp and crunchy and sweet. I love this for lunch. :) No oil or Butter Scrambled Eggs/ Omlette I have wanted scrambled eggs for a while but I have never made them without at least some cooking spray so they won't stick. On HCG you can't even have cooking spray! So I researched and found a way to do it. 1 egg (I have gone cage free it was delicious) 1 Tb milk salt and pepper Also could add: bell pepper, spinach, green onion, yellow onion, tomato, I might even try some cottage cheese one day... Mix together egg, milk, and salt and pepper in a microwave safe plastic bowl with a wire wisk. Sprinkle other ingredients on top if desired. Cook uncovered in the Microwave for about 1 minute and 10-20 seconds. Time will vary depending on your microwave. Remove immediately from the microwave and scoop out your eggs especially the edges. It will stick, but if it is right out of the microwave it will all come out nicely. It will look puffy, but it is good. :) Carb Free Lasagna The Lasagna was good, but Chelsea and I did not lose weight the day after we ate it. Layered spinach leaves, cottage cheese, sliced tomatoes, meat sauce, all in that order til I had a full pan. (mine was like 3 inches by 2 inches) The meat sauce was hamburger browned with onions, minced garlic, oregano, basil leaves, tomato paste with water, and salt and pepper. Cooked for about 45 min 375 degrees. Not bad for carb free Lasagna.
