5 Days of Husbandless Homemaking:: What's For Dinner - Not Consumed
I absolutely love to cook. Seriously. But believe it or not even something you love to do can become a tedious chore. Feeding five people three times a day is exactly that. Tedious. Plan to eat Yes, I must plan to eat. A simple resource for gluten free meals that are fast and cheap is 31 Days of Gluten Free Meals. I plan weekly and I do it online with a program called Emeals. Cook for a week While making my menu plans, I have one goal…as little cooking as possible. Monday- black beans over rice Tuesday- southwest soup with black beans Wednesday- black bean burgers Thursday- quinoa and black beans Friday- salad topped with black beans I realize that this probably seems a bit repetitive to most, but when you have to care for young children by yourself, you are doing well just to get food on the table. Sunday prep night Probably the best tip I can offer for doing this meal thing alone is my Sunday prep night. This is what I have prepared for the upcoming week. Mix together all ingredients.

What One Nutritionist Ate for an Entire Week (in Pictures)
As a dietician, I find that many people are curious about what I eat on a day-to-day basis. People often assume I follow a strict no-fun diet that consists of kale, quinoa, and a ton of salads. Honestly, I do love those foods—but I also love food in general. Instead of subscribing to a specific diet, I eat when I am hungry and stop eating, regardless of the amount of food left on the plate, when I am satisfied. I avoid foods that don’t agree with me.
Chicken Cordon Bleu Pasta
As soon as I saw this dish here , I couldn't have been more excited to try it! I absolutely LOVE Chicken Cordon Bleu. My favorite being served at the Stanley Hotel in Estes Park. It was so amazing, it melted in your mouth. This was such an easy recipe. Preheat the broiler. Transfer pasta to a baking dish and top with Panko crumbs. Edited to add: This makes amazing leftovers!!

8 Easy Ways to Lose a Pound a Week
Shutterstock Lets do the math: To lose one pound in seven days, you need to subtract about 3,500 calories. The safest, most hunger-free way to do this is to spread it out over the course of a week, deleting approximately 500 calories a day. Some of that number can be burned off by ramping up your workouts, while the rest of it can be achieved by making some ridiculously easy food swamps that won’t leave your stomach growly or make your taste buds miss out on flavor. Try as many of these creative ways to cut calories as you can (altogether, they add up to 3,500 calories you won't miss), and watch the number on the scale head south.

Wrap Your Burger in a Lettuce Boat Bun “One crisp piece of lettuce has about five calories, while the typical burger bun packs close to 250,” says Bogden.
