​Polish cabbage rolls (Golabki)
Hamburger, par cooked rice, onion, Golden George Washington seasoning, salt/pepper and a little bit of tomato sauce mixed together and rolled in a partially steamed cabbage leaf..
Layer tomato sauce, extra cabbage leaves, cabbage rolls, more sauce, etc.. End with tomato sauce on top. Cover with foil and bake @ 325 for a couple hrs.
Tomato sauce is a mixture of regular Hunts sauce (LG can) and a couple cans of V8 juice (or a can of tomato soup)
*can be made healthier by using ground turkey and riced cauliflower.. I've done it before and it's still good!*

I had some leftover rice to use up.
So I made my version of a jambalaya.
I sauteed chopped onion, red,yellow and orange peppers, celery and tomatoes. Then added some cut up andouli sausage, oregano, cayenne pepper, black pepper, paprika, chicken broth and tomato puree.
Mixed it all up until everything was nicely cooked. Then added the rice and some pre cooked shrimp sauteed on low until the rice and shrimp were hot.

And since I still have 854 calories available to me today. I'm having seconds 😍

Soup (creamy mushroom spinach and cheese tortellini ) and sandwich (salami, ham, mozzarella, pepper jack, parmesan, arugala, oregano and mayo)
I air crisped the bread for a few minutes and then air crisped the sandwich to melt the cheese.
For the soup I air crisped the mushrooms and onions in butter and olive oil at 390* for 15 minutes. During that time I added garlic and thyme. Towards the end I added a little flour once everything was done I added chicken broth. I switched to saute setting and brought it to a boil and added the tortellini and spinach. Once they were cooked I added some parmesan cheese and heavy cream.

Made a rice dish this evening. First I pressure cooked half a bag of Lundberg’s wild rice for 18 minutes in the Foodi and did quick pressure release. Put that aside in a bowl.
Cleaned the Foodi pot and switched it to sauté on high and browned a pack of ground turkey in it, adding garlic, half container of pico de gallo and a tbsp of sambal oelek (Indonesian chili paste; so you can use something else spicy like cayenne pepper or other peppers). When that was done, added a bag and a half of frozen broccoli florets, cook until warm, put the half the rice in (I’m using the other half for meal later this week), sprinkled with Parmesan cheese and switched the Foodi to broil for 10 minutes and done.

We weren’t extremely hungry this evening so made an appetizer for dinner: stuffed mushrooms.

Ingredients:
1 can lump crab meat
Alouette spinach and artichoke cheese spread
1 tsp reduced sodium Worcestershire sauce
DAK’s Italian Blast seasoning 1/2 tsp
2 stalks green onion
1 small tub baby Portobello mushrooms
Juice of 1 lemon
Panko whole wheat bread crumbs
Sartori Parmesan cheese
3 green olives with pimento
Spray olive oil

First I drained the liquid out of the can of crab meat and then put the crab in a bowl. Finely chopped green onion, the olives and squeezed in lemon juice, added seasoning and half the container of Alouette and about 1/2 cup of the Panko. Set aside in the fridge.

Then I cut the stems off the mushrooms and cleaned out the gills. Put them on the Ninja plate and stuffed them with above mixture, about a tbsp per mushroom. Then sprinkled some Parmesan cheese on top, sprayed some olive oil over it and air fried in the Ninja Foodi for 20 minutes (no preheat) at 375F.

Calories for 7 mushrooms each 419, carbs 21g, fat 34g, protein 13g, sodium 319 mg and sugar 5g.

For dinner this evening I fixed cauliflower and chicken in the Ninja Foodi.

Ingredients:
1 head cauliflower
1 cup organic low sodium vegetable broth
2 thin chicken breast filets 6 oz each
Sartori Parmesan cheese
Olive oil
DAK’s Citrus Groove seasoning
Garlic powder
Paprika
Pico de gallo

First I pressure cooked the cauliflower whole (cut off the leaves) in the broth for 1 minute, quick pressure release, sprayed olive oil on the top, sprinkled it with garlic powder, paprika and about 4 tbsp of cheese, then set the Ninja Foodi to broil for 6 minutes.

Took the cauliflower out and set aside, then placed the chicken on the same rack, sprayed with olive oil, DAK’s seasoning and garlic powder, broil for 4 minutes, flipped over the chicken, seasoned that side, added 1 tbsp cheese on each filet and set to broil 6 more minutes.
Topped each one with a tbsp of pico de gallo once plated.

We had a wonderful day today! Load got delivered early this morning in Roseburg OR, then I took my time driving down to NV, took a couple of walks and to finish it off cooked us a nice dinner once we got parked.
I made Panko Parmesan cheese encrusted tilapia with a delicious salad.

Ingredients:
Olive oil (spray bottle Bertolli)
Organic mixed spring greens about 1-2 cups each
Cucumber
Roma tomato
Pico de gallo (1/2 cup)
1/4 cup part skim shredded mozzarella
2 tbsp dried cranberries
Green onions
Brianna’s Cilantro and lime salad dressing
2 tilapia filets
Whole wheat Panko bread crumbs
1 egg
Low sodium Worcestershire sauce 1 tbsp
1 cup whole wheat flour
DAK’s Citrus Groove seasoning
Garlic powder
Sartori Parmesan cheese 2-3 tbsp

I put a cup of the flour in a ziplock bag, beat an egg with 1 tbsp of reduced sodium Worcestershire sauce, then seasoned the tilapia with garlic powder and DAK’s.
Put the tilapia in the ziploc bag with the flour, shake it until the flour covers the tilapia. Then transfer the tilapia into the egg wash (one by one). In another ziploc bag I put a cup of Panko bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese, DAK’s seasoning and garlic powder. Put one filet in the bag at a time, shake very well until that’s covered and put aside on a plate.
Preheat the Ninja Foodi while you’re doing this (or skillet). I put mine on air crisp at 375F. I sprayed olive oil on both sides of the filet and put them on the rack in the Foodi. The last 8 minutes I changed the temperate to 400F, flipping over the tilapia after 4 minutes so it gets crispy on both sides.
Now of course both filets fell apart so it doesn’t look all pretty on the plate but it was delicious nonetheless!

For the salad I put spring greens, cucumber, tomato, pico de Gallo, mozzarella cheese (shredded), dried cranberries, green onions and Brianna’s cilantro lime dressing.

Salmon with cauliflower; 447 calories, 15g carbs, 29g fat, 33g protein, 209mg sodium and 6g sugar for this meal.

Ingredients:
8 oz salmon (4 oz each)
Medium head of cauliflower
Olive oil in spray bottle (or brush it on)
Garlic powder
DAK’s Citrus Groove seasoning (salt free)
Sartori Parmesan cheese
1 cup of Meijer fat free unsalted chicken broth

First I pressure cooked the whole head of cauliflower in the Ninja Foodi, on high for 3 minutes but next time will do 2 minutes to keep it a bit firmer. Then I did a quick pressure release, sprinkled the garlic powder, DAK’s and 2 tbsp of cheese on top and sprayed a little olive oil over it, then switched the Foodi to broil for 10 minutes, cut the cauliflower in half and placed a half on each plate; put aside.

Then I put the salmon on the rack in the highest position, sprinkled that with seasonings and olive oil, broiled for 10 minutes, flip over and broil for another 5 minutes.
