I took a piece of chicken and threw in some cauliflower but didn't measure it I'll learn. I have a question about seasonings-I looked at some that I have and some have salt as a first or second ingredient, but some have sea salt. Would you use those?

Tomorrows plan
Workout
Protein shake
Greek yogurt-protein powder, berries & fiber one
Lunch will probably be 4oz grilled chicken breast, 1/2cup cottage cheese and side salad
Protein/energy bar (last one too high carbs)
My chicken and cauliflower

That should be it for the day. Still struggling with trying to eat 5 times especially on weekends.

At least I got one right. I'm starting to understand why you eat so many
eggs. Getting enough protein is tough. I see myself eating lots of hard boiled eggs. I'm really loving omelettes with salsa, no cheese . I see why you suggest having it on hand. I'll bet it's good on chicken but I'd really like to try it with cauliflower !!

I'll keep trying-thanks for all the help.
Starting to look good. The nutritional values of your meals look good, like I said the numbers won't be exact so the above is very good. If the 1st and 2nd ingredient is salt that means it's mostly saly and not the greatest. Sea salt is all I use, much better than table salt. Salsa is a quick easy way to add a little flavor to bland food, it helps. Eggs are quick and easy and can be used in so many ways. I sometimes add a raw one to a protein drink and they are used in quite a few recipies. Try the high protein pancackes, they will help with the protein intake and can be eaten anywhere which will also make it easier to get in an extra meal.
