It must be the 4th week rut or something. I am feeling the same as you Kim and Stacy. I finally went shopping today. Hopefully I can get back on track too. Recipes would be appreciated if anyone has any. I went back to an old standby today that we haven't had in a while. Again all I ever post is hungry girl recipes but here it is. We modified a little but here are the basics.

Chinese Chicken Salad

Broccoli slaw (At the store it is by the bagged lettuce. I did not know about it forever but it is really good.)
Cooked chicken (Sometimes I use canned chicken if I don't have any ready to use.)
mandarin oranges
scallions
water chesnuts
Kraft or Newman's Own light asian sesame dressing
slivered almonds and/or rice noodles

We don't really have a certain quantity of each. We just build a salad with the stuff we like most. Of course you have to watch the almonds and rice noodles but it needs something for crunch.

sounds yummy. i like the broccoli slaw with paul newman's low-fat ginger sesame dressing too. it is also yummy on shredded cabbage (cooked or raw).

I think that is what the Newman's one is called. The Kraft is Asian Sesame. We love it even when we are not on a diet. I am going to try the black bean burgers. They look great!
