OK, so y'all think I'm nuts for fish tacos. There were YUM. Go to my recipe blog which has that recipe and lots more. Or at least will soon.
So I was talking to Ree Ree last night about how we're eating. What is everyone making for dinner? I read stuff about how to cut calories and fat but we're already doing all of that. I guess portions is the biggest for me. I am a quantity eater. I would rather have 4 cups of plain popcorn than one tiny bite of a brownie. I am also trying really hard to get my fruits. I have no problem with veggies since I make at least 2 with dinner but fruit is hard. I do not like to take the time to prep it and the easy stuff like bananas or apples I don't really like. So what are some snack ideas?
And I am not going to the mall today since my Gymboree coupon didn't arrive in the mail yesterday. I will hopefully go tomorrow.

My biggest problem is portion size too!! I don't buy junk food and I make pretty decent meals...but I eat enough for two grown men!
Snacking is another issue for me - it HAS to be convenient! I started buying cauliflower, broccoli and carrots at the grocery. As soon as I get home from the grocery and put up the groceries I clean and cut up the veggies. I throw them in a zip lock bag and put on the top shelf of my fridge. I also bought light ranch dressing (which isn't the greatest, but it works). It's super convenient to grab the bag of veggies and sit down and munch on them.
I used to make Brian trail mix that he would take to work and that would be his lunch - quite frankly I'm not satisfied with trail mix for lunch, but it was nice to grab a handful of it as a snack. Ingredients for trail mix: whole wheat chex, almonds and/or walnuts, soynuts, dried cranberries or raisins & anything else you like. The trail mix has lots of nutrition, but if you eat a lot of it then it really should replace a meal, but if you're just looking for a quick snack you can grab a handful of it and it will be fine. I mix it all together and measure it out into baggies ans store in a tupperware container in the pantry.
That's all I can think of for now.
The snack 100 calorie packs are great too!! I like junk food, so the cookies and stuff go great with a nice crystal light!!
Can I get an AMEN for Naked Chips??? Love them and you can eat a ton!
