1 frozen salmon patty from Costco
2 cups chopped (cabbage, lettuce and cilantro)
2 TPB corny strips (optional)
1 Tbsp. Creamy Ranch Cilantro dressing

Fry salmon patty on stove top in a skillet sprayed with PAM. (get it nice and crispy).
In the mean time, layer all of the other ingrediants (except dressing) onto plate.
Remove salmon patter, let cool. Chop and top salad with salmon and dressing.

This is a Mistie Creation and excellent.

Prooatmeal

Are you tired of the same old boring oatmeal?

YES!

Does it tide you over until lunch?

Nooooooo!

I might be able to help! This oatmeal has been revved up; it is protein and flavor packed with just the right amount of (good) carbs, protein and fat.

Think it's too good to be true? I dare you to try it!

It's creamy and dreamy!

2/3 Cup cooked oatmeal, prepared with water
1 scoop of protein powder
1/2 cup of fresh frozen berries
1-1/2 Tbsp. Chopped walnuts
Splash of skim milk (1/4 cup) of skim, almond, rice or soy milk

If you want to increase to a 400 calories meal: increase oatmeal to 1 cup and increase protein powder to 1-1/2 scoops
for a 500 calorie meal: increase oatmeal to 1-1/3 cup, increase protein powder to 1-1/2 scoops, increase walnuts to 2-1/2 Tbsp. and increase berries to one full cup.


I used frozen berries (Triple berry blend from Costco) and they thaw right in the oatmeal and it is way yum.
