Italian Broiled Eggs 330 Calories


This is a great light evening meal.  Get a 3" or 4" ramekin, spray with a little cooking spray.  Put 1 tablespoon of heavy cream with 1/2 tablespoon real butter in ramekin under the broiler on high for 2 to 3 minutes, till the cream and butter begin to bubble.  Immediately take it out and place 2 eggs gently in the ramekin.  Sprinkle on top 3 pinches of Italian seasoning, a pinch of salt, a pinch of pepper with 1/2 tablespoon of grated parmesan cheese (do this quickly).  Place back under the broiler on high for 3 to 5 minutes.  Let stand for 1 to 2 minutes before serving, because it will be so darn hot.  Serve with a slice of buttered toast.  This simple and quick meal is only 330 calories.  A crucial part of everyone's diet is will power.  Second is portion control with good choices.  Third is physical exercise.

Anyone trying to loose weight needs to have some oatmeal in their diet.  Some health benefits include but not limited to making you feel fuller longer, high in fiber and protein, low in fat, beneficial to glucose levels, great heart benefits, removes bad cholesterol and a great colon cleanse.  This recipe of mine could be a lot more healthy if I didn't put so much brown sugar and stuff in it but that is how I like it.  This consisted of 2 cups of dry oatmeal, 3 cups of water (add more if needed), 1/2 banana diced, 1/2 gala apple diced, .25 cups of raisins, .25 cup of diced walnuts and 3/4 cup of brown sugar.  Add cinnamon to your liking with a dash of salt.  This recipe serves 4 people for 390 calories per serving.  You can delete some of the fruit to lower your calories.   These totals are for the entire recipe: banana is 53 calories, apple is 40 calories, walnuts is 400 calories , raisins is 130 calories and the brown sugar is 540 calories.  So teak it any which way you would like it.   Try and keep each meal 400 calories or less with two 100 calorie snacks for the day.   A crucial part of everyone's diet is will power.  Second is portion control with good choices.  Third is physical exercise.

Cabbage Casserole 271 Calories

Cabbage Casserole



Now there are 2 ways to go about making this dish. One is quicker than the other. One way is to prepare in advance and bake it in the oven. The quick way is to cook it in the pressure cooker. All it consists of is one head of cabbage, 1 can tomato sauce or a can of diced tomatoes, 1 pound of 90/10 ground meat, 1 cup instant white rice, 1 medium onion and season with Cajun seasoning. Throw it all in a 13x9 casserole dish or aluminum pan and bake for 1 hour. If you cooking it with the pressure cooker, cook for 15 minutes. That is all. If you divide this dish into 6 servings and that's a lot, it weighs in at only 271 calories. If you would like it to be a little more hearty add 1 link of diced up Cajun smoked sausage. That would bump up the calories to around 342 calories per serving. Now that's a healthy meal in a snap. A crucial part of everyone's diet is will power. The second is portion control with good choices. Third is physical activities.

Chocolate Peanut Butter Banana Smoothie 293 Calories

Peanut Butter Banana Smoothie





Ok, so here is a great healthy breakfast to eat on the go.  This will also help you get some vitamins and fruit in your diet.  To prepackage this breakfast place 1 cup diced strawberries (fresh or frozen), 1/2 sliced banana, 1 large handful of fresh spinach in a Ziploc bag with instruction written on it.  Place in the freezer until needed.  When you blend place ingredients in the blender, add 3 tablespoons of PBfit peanut butter powder (not the 4 listed on the Ziploc), 1 scoop of purely inspired Organic Protein and 1 cup dark chocolate almond milk.  The combination may appear to you that it will not taste like chocolate, peanut butter and banana, but I am here to tell you it does!  I recommend to made this meal fulfilling for a meal replacement and lower the calories to make sure you get the powdered peanut butter and protein powder.   If  you don't want to do as a meal replacement then eliminate the protein powder and save yourself 65 calories.  The powdered peanut butter has 75% less fat and 66% fewer calories than regular peanut butter.  Weighs in at 293 calories, if you don't use the protein powder it would be 228 calories.  Please note if your using as a meal replacement to put the protein powder in.  It will keep you fuller longer.


A crucial part of everyone's dieting is willpower.  Second is portion control with good choices.  Third is physical activities.

Pan Grilled Fish and Oven Roasted Vegetables 297 Calories

Pan Grilled Fish and Oven Roasted Vegetables

















Ok here is an easy and quick meal.  I seasoned my vegetables and fish using my olive oil seasoning blend link here:   http://happyhousebunkie.blogspot.com/2017/01/olive-oil-seasoning-blend.html .  I get the vegetables at Sam's Club in the fresh vegetable cooler by the celery, lettuce area.  For this serving I poured 4 cup of veggies (break cauliflower and broccoli into smaller pieces if needed) on a foil lined sheet pan for easy clean up for 3 people (I forgot to take a picture and the plate is one I had taken has cauliflower, broccoli, yellow squash and zucchini squash in it.  But you get the idea.  I will update this when I cook it again).  Follow these directions on how to bake it  http://southerndiet.blogspot.com/2016/09/baked-zucchini-squash-and-bell-peppers.html  .  As you see in the recipe you can use any fresh vegetables.  It takes about 2 minutes to prepare and 35 to 45 minutes to cook.  You kind of decide how cooked you prefer your veggies.   Ok for this serving of vegetables seen on the plate was 162 calories for 1 1/2 cups.  The fish I cooked in a real good nonstick skillet with a tablespoon of my oil blend and a tablespoon of butter and seasonings you prefer with 4 Members Mark tilapia fillets.  Each fillet is around 3 to 4 oz and should serve 4 people. In my case it served 3 because my daughter ate 2.   Cook on medium high or higher, when the butter starts to turn brown it's time to cook the fish.  Cook for 3 to 4 minutes per side.  Each serving of fish is 135 calories, that is for 3 oz.'s.  So this dish has a total of 297 calories.  If your really hungry you could add 1/2 a fish or some more veggies to your plate.  But keep it under 400 calories.  You can probably make it less calories than that by baking the fish.  But I prefer to cook my fish this way.  Because you know it's how southern women diet! lol

Scrambled Eggs Bacon and Cheese 245 Calories

Scrambled Eggs Bacon and Cheese



When your on a 1,330 calorie a day diet you have to learn to eat within your budget.  You don't want to be hungry.  You also don't want to eat all or half your calories in just one meal.  My meal plan I budget with the drinks to have around 400 calories per meal and two 100 calorie snacks.  I eat my snacks whenever I feel hungry,  I either eat my one snack all at once or I graze on it till my next meal.  So for my breakfast I choose 2 jumbo eggs scrambled,  1 tablespoon of the Hormel real bacon bits and once cooked I topped it with a slice of cheese.  This meal weighs in at 245 calories.  I like a huge cup of coffee with my breakfast.  So my total calorie intake for breakfast is 289.  I could have a slice of bread with it, but nah... I'm good.  This meal took a total of 5 minutes to make.  The precooked real bacon bits is a real time saver.  This meal will make me feel fuller longer.
