Foil Packet Potatoes
Serves: 2
Ingredients:
6 new potatoes
2 teaspoons vegetable oil
1/8 teaspoon parsley flakes
unsalted butter, to taste (optional)
Directions:
Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Put 1 teaspoon of oil and a dash of parsley flakes on the center of two sheets of aluminum foil. Put 3 potatoes on top of the oil and parsley on each sheet. Roll the potatoes around to coat in the oil and parsley. Tightly wrap aluminum foil around the potatoes. Place both foil packets on a baking sheet and bake for 1 hour or until soft. Open foil packets carefully. Put potatoes on a plate and smash with a fork. Top with butter, if desired. Serve with a good source of protein, such as my recipe for: Meatloaf, Salisbury Steak, or Swiss Steak. Have with a glass of water.
Meatloaf Meatballs
Serves: 6
Ingredients:
1 ½ lbs. lean ground beef (I use 93% lean/7% fat.)
1 egg
3 slices white bread, torn into small pieces (I’ve tried whole grain bread, but white bread works better.)
1 cup whole milk (I’ve tried skim milk, but whole milk works better.)
onion powder, to taste
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 ¼ teaspoons salt
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Mix ingredients together until well combined. Mixture will be kind of soupy. Use a small cookie dough scoop to scoop the meat mixture into meatballs about the size of golf balls. Place meatballs close together without touching on foil lined cookie sheets. Bake for 30 minutes or until the meatballs are cooked through and the outsides are crisp. Using tongs, immediately remove the meatballs from the greasy foil lined pans and put them in a serving bowl. Have with a glass of water and a healthy carbohydrate, such as one serving of: whole grains, fruits or vegetables.
