quick easy healthy sandwich recipes image
Kelly
I'm a terrible chef, but I'm moving into my own place soon and cannot rely on quick dorm food anymore :(
I don't want to develop unhealthy habits, so I've decided to begin cooking for myself. What are some recipes that are cheap, low-calorie/healthy, easy (around 5 ingredients or less), and fast?
Breakfast, lunches, dinners, desserts, drinks, et cetera: all suggestions welcome!
Thank you!

It is one of my favorites. You don't have to add all the ingredients for many recipes like the one below. I leave out the peppers and use any pasta sauce you like. I buy big basil plant at Trader Joe's for a just a couple of bucks. Using fresh ingredients as much as possible really makes a big difference. =)
Mozzarella Chicken Sandwich
Ingredients
* 1/4 cup (about 2 ounces) sun-dried tomato pesto (such as Classico)
* 2 tablespoons fat-free mayonnaise
* 3/4 pound skinless, boneless chicken breasts
* 1/4 teaspoon pepper
* 1/8 teaspoon salt
* 1 teaspoon olive oil
* 1 (8-ounce) loaf ciabatta
* 12 large basil leaves
* 3/4 cup (3 ounces) shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese
* 1/2 cup sliced bottled roasted red bell peppers
* 1 large tomato, thinly sliced
Preparation
Combine pesto and mayonnaise in a small bowl, stirring to blend.
Sprinkle chicken with pepper and salt. Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken, and cook for 3 minutes on each side or until done. Remove chicken to cutting board, and cool slightly. Cut chicken lengthwise into thin slices.
Preheat broiler.
Cut ciabatta in half horizontally. Place bread, cut sides up, on a baking sheet. Broil 3 minutes or until lightly browned. Remove bread from pan. Spread pesto mixture evenly over cut sides of bread. Arrange the chicken slices evenly over bottom half. Top chicken evenly with basil leaves, and sprinkle cheese over top. Place bottom half on baking sheet, and broil 2 minutes or until cheese melts. Arrange bell pepper and tomato over cheese, and cover with top half of bread. Cut into 4 equal pieces.

Can someone provide me with some tasty but healthy recipes that are quick and easy to prepare?

I canât eat dairy for a while, because of allergies. So Iâm going grocery shopping later in the afternoon and I need some ideas on what to buy for lunch. I live alone, so I don't want to get too much or buy something pricey (e.g. lobster). Iâm not big on a lot of leftovers either.
Usually I donât have a lot of time, so Iâll eat something quick like a grilled cheese sandwich with a salad, or some cottage cheese with tomatoes and crackers. I need some ideas.
Last but not least, I donât like any of the following: red meat, pork, dark meat (fowl), octopus, lamb, meat that's packed into a can (e.g. tuna, chicken, shrimp, & spam), protein shakes, meal replacement bars.
Mmm, thanks for all the great advice!
