Q. I am looking for healthy dishes. Soups, sandwiches, dinner dishes that I can make... But I want something that you have tried that tastes really good. I am open to any kind of food. Thanks!!!
A. Put a pork rub on Chicken breast marinated in BBQ sauce for 30 min or more. Then place on grill. Cook on medium for 30-45 min (depending on size of breast)
Cut broccolie florets and spray with Pam, sprinkle with salt and garlic. Skewer them and place on grill when chicken is about 2/3 done. Broccolie should be juicy and flavorful (not scorched) when taken off grill.

A. The main thing is to eat balanced meals.
Breakfast:
Oatmeal is GREAT for getting rid of cholesterol.
100% Orange juice (no sugar added-red the container), or grape juice (no sugar added).
One piece of toast.
Lunch:
Healthy sandwiches.
Hot stews or soups in wide mouth thermoses for at work (don't forget the spoon).
Cold chicken salads in wide mouth thermoses for work/school (don't forget the fork and crackers).
Fruit for dessert.
Dinner:
A balanced plate such as:
One meat/or fish/or chicken/or turkey (no to sausages).
One vegetable.
One starch which can be rice, or potatoes, or beans, or corn.
Fruit for dessert.
********************************************
1. At your grocery store, buy the sealed PRE-COOKED meats that come is small packages such as the following. You can make two or three meals out of them:
Beef tips with gravy,
Roast with gravy,
Pork roast,
Chicken,
Baked ham,
Pork chops,
Meatloaf,
etc.
Just heat in your microwave; directions are on the packages. You will find these packages in the cold section (not the freezer). Ask a clerk to help you find these. They are delicious.
Use these for your meat dish with a side dish or two of canned or frozen vegetables, beans, potatoes or sweet potatoes which can all be found on shelves or in the freezer section and they are already cooked.
.
You can now buy bags of different flavors of precooked rice that you put into your microwave for a minute or two. These are on shelves at the grocery store. We like the chicken flavored best of all. Have a clerk help you find them.
.
Real mashed potatoes that come in a bag...add water, butter, milk. Delicious. Read the directions.
.
Buy top brand cans of stew for each person. Serve with cornbread, crackers, or toast.
.
Soup and a grilled (fried) cheese sandwiches. Go to this video to see how to make a quick grilled cheese sandwich:

.
You can buy all types of salad greens in large packages now. Buy the ones that have been pre-washed. Add your own dressing which you can buy in bottles.
.
2. The top brands of microwave frozen dinners are very good now. These come in single servings or in family sized bags. Follow directions. Look for the words "No Preservatives" marked on the box or package.
Just add a canned or frozen vegetable as a side dish.
Top brands of dinners that are found on shelves. No fridge needed. Add water, microwave. These are good to take to school or work. Follow directions on the containers.

.
4. Supermarket deli's have pre roasted chickens, fried chickens, roast beef, and side dishes. You can stop in on the way home and grab a quick dinner to take home. I buy their roasted chicken often...they are delicious.
.
5. Buy a crock pot. You put everything into the pot in the morning, set it on low for 8 hours, and your dinner will be ready for you when you come home in the evening! I kid you not. Be sure to read the instruction booklet.
There is a recipe booklet that comes with the crock pot. You can buy crock pots at places such as your grocery store, Walmart, and etc.
Here are 1,160 crock pot recipes:
