Jennifer
Love to cook so a recipe would be nice. I'd like to stay away from frozen dinners. Thanks!
Answer
Some foods i reccommend putting on the grill are:
- Chicken
- Salmon
- Tilapia
All low in Calories and really healthy.
Along with those healthy meat choices you could steam some vegeatables on the grill as well.
Wrap some carrots, brocoli, squash, and cucumber slices up in some foil && add some Worcheshire sauce on top, and grill'em for about thirty minutes.
Corn on the cobb is good && good for you.
Brown rice is a good choice as well.

For some lunchtime meals.
i reccommend tuna fish on wheatbread.
carrot sticks with low fat rach.
fruit.
&& water.
turkey sandwich on wheat bread with light mayo, and tomatos and/or pickles.
baked chips, and a fruit.

What are some healthy cheap meals to make?
you.go.gir
I would appreciate your input :)
What are some recipes or foods to buy that are healthy and cheap???
I'm wondering what foods I can eat that's not too much and lasts
Answer
This is a question I struggle with daily. Unfortunately the healthy stuff tends to be more expensive than the not-so-healthy stuff (produce mainly). There are some good tips I have discovered over the years. More recently I've been doing much of my shopping at WalMart. their prices are great and they carry almost all the foods you would want.
So, here goes....
Pasta is always an option.... try Ronzoni's Smart taste... it has tons of fiber and calcium in it and tastes just like regular pasta. And marinara sauces are low in fat/cal and cheap to make or buy.
If you like beans and corn, one of my favorites is a black bean salsa (goya black beans are great), canned sweet corn, some diced red onion, a minced jalapeno, lime juice and cilantro. It's great with chips or with chicken breast made with mexican spices. Use plain strained yogurt in place of sour cream.
Also, try a can of white northern beans in the food processor with some fresh and roasted garlic. Add a litttle milk or water to slightly thin this mixture. Add salt, pepper, and a touch of olive oil and a pinch of dried thyme. Use this on a low fat pizza crust (Wal Mart sells one for 44cents that is so simple... you just add water) instead of pizza sauce. top with shredded chicken, brocccoli, onions, whatever and top with part skim shredded mozz. Bake about 12 minutes and finish with a touch of olive oil.
okay... some cheap fish.... if you like fish.... tilapia is great and usually about 7.99/pd. take a portion size fillet and put it in a parchment or foil pouch with some lemon juice a touch of olive oil or Brummel and Brown (my personal favorite butter substitute made with yogurt) and fresh herbs and veggies. super healthy, tasty, and cheap depending on your veggie choice. Serve with brown rice.
Potatoes are also very cheap, so make baked wedges or a traditional baked potato. There are also several good low fat cheese products out there. not always cheap,, but.look for coupons for laughing cow, alpine lace. Baked potato with broccoli and diet cheese is one of my favorite dinners.
Also a good idea is buying a whole turkey breast or roaster chicken and using it for several applications. slice turkey for sandwiches (I love Arnolds double the fiber whole grain bread) or in salads. Lettuce is pretty cheap, and try making your own croutons!
obviously i could go on and on, if you'd like more ideas contact me through my website, www.completelyculinary.com
