for now, I want to keep a list of recipes and foods that would be
1. healthy
2. fairly low cal
3. cheap-ish
4. easy to store or pack in a weeks worth of meals on campus
I cant say my last apartment experience was too terrific on the stay fit & healthy train, since I gained 20 pounds & didnt let a morsel of food escape my mouth
here goes:
Sweet potato chips:
peel potato skin.. throw away
make peelings.. spray bottom of pan w Pam
bake @ 350 until crispy (40 minutes probably)
check at 20 min intervals and flip!
cost : .60 cents a pound
cals : about 1 oz = 100 cals
note, low in protein, high in minerals, higher in fat so baking helps
Almond milk:
there is an unsweetened version that is better obv because there is not added sugar &
cal: 35
regular almond
cal: 60 per 8 oz (1 cup)
$3.32 for a half gallon
Boneless skinless chix breast:
Buy a frozen pack from Costco.. Last pack I purchased was like $15 maybe? For a huge pack.. Let thaw while I'm in M/W classes or Sunday night ... Bake/ grill... Add herbs & spices -
chipotle lime dressing - 40 cals for 2 tbsp
balsamic vin. -60 for 2 tbsp
4 oz. = 120 cals
Essential spices I need for cooking- dill weed, onion powder, Vegeta & always pepper ha.
