Safe Weightloss Recipes
for main meals
Creating safe weightloss recipes you enjoy is our goal because energy and the feel good factor are our highest priorities.
We
didn’t get to our age without going on a few diets and learning to cook
the things we like. We know a bit about diet recipes so there’s no
point in me giving you a list of diet meals.
No, this time I want to inspire you to try out some new foods and some new ways of preparing and serving
them.
To get into a healthier eating lifestyle that will enable you to
lose extra pounds, maintain your weight and still enjoy evenings and
weekends with all the trappings of a good social life!
The idea is to..
- Eat more alkaline foods.
- Include raw foods and fruits as salads, nibbles and side dishes.
- Eat lots more fresh vegetables. Stir fry, saute and lightly steam them.
- Include healthy protein, more fish, chicken, pulses, grains, nuts and seeds.
- Switch to whole grain breads, pasta and brown rice. There’s no excuse they are available everywhere.
- Try cold raw sauces and dressings using almonds, herbs and spices.
Getting started..
I have a few safe weightloss recipes that I have included below to spark your creativity and I will add more on a regular basis. At the bottom of the page you will find links to 2 websites where I find lots of recipe inspiration.
Grilled Salmon with Lemon Pesto
My favorite because I love salmon!
2 Salmon fillets
small bunch of parsley
2 large tbsp lemon juice and some zest
1 small clove of garlic
1 tbsp olive oil
salt
small handfull of pine nuts
2 drops of Truvia
Preheat the grill
Place all ingredients in a blender and whizz in short bursts to achieve a course paste.
Spread onto salmon filets and grill until the salmon is cooked through.
Serve with steamed green beans, broccoli or a green salad.
I have also used almonds and walnuts in this recipe, tastes great too!
Nuts are a superb source of protein and help to keep you fuller longer. The salmon is rich in Omega 3 oils essential for our health and safe weightloss.
Green Bean and Tomato Stew with White Fish
- 400g runnerbeans trimmed and sliced
- olive oil
- tin of anchovies in olive oil.
- 2 cloves of garlic.
- few chilli flakes (optional).
- 400g tin of tomatoes.
- salt.
- black pepper.
- white fish filets cut in large bite size chunks.
Place
the chopped garlic in a pan with the anchovies in oil and cook for a
few minutes until they become a paste. Add the tin of tomatoes and and
bring to the boil. Add the runner beans and cook on a medium heat until
almost ready. Fold the raw fish gently into the stew and cook on a low
heat until the fish pieces are cooked through.
The anchovies and garlic give this fish stew a wonderful taste. The recipe is quick and easy, nourishing and inexpensive.
Chicken Stir Fry
This recipe is great because you can use almost any veggies you have in the fridge and dress it up with bean sprouts or spinach leaves as you like.
- 1 chicken breast cut into strips
- Soya sauce
- half a head of broccoli cut into florets
- handfull of snow peas
- courgette ribbons
Fry the chicken pieces in a tbsp of oil for a few minutes add a little water, cover and cook until almost ready. Remove from the pan and keep warm. Now cook the brocolli florets in the juice for about 5 minutes and then add the snow peas and courgette for a further few minutes. Put the chicken back in the pan with the veggies and warm through.
The stir fry is a really useful safe weightloss recipe. It can be cooked as much or as little as you like and varied with all sorts of herbs and spices. Serve with a little brown rice or on a bed of raw baby spinach.
