red, green, yellow peppers: slice them all up & put them in a container. Easy to snack on with yogurt or hummus. Bake in oven for 30 min at 350 with drizzle of olive oil, salt & pepper. Once cooked you can add to sandwiches with goat cheese, add to cooked pasta with a squeeze of lemon juice & shredded parmesan cheese.
Buy a package of skinless, boneless chicken breast or thighs. Marinate for 30 minutes or over night with juice from 1 lemon, 2 tablespoons of Olive oil, salt & pepper to taste. Bake in oven for 45 minutes at 350 degrees. You can add that pasta, salads, sandwiches, soups, or add a cooked veggie.
A good bargain & easy to cook. Steam in the bag Brown rice. Found in frozen department to quickly make brown rice for the day. :)
Mushrooms, onions, zucchini sliced up into bite size pieces are easily cooked in a pan with a bit of olive oil, salt & pepper. Or put into oven & bake a bunch up at 350degrees for 30 minutes drizzle olive oil over first, salt & pepper to taste. Make up a bunch & store in frig. You can add to pasta, eat as a side to any meal.
Cherry tomatoes taste delish when you bake in the oven with Olive oil, salt, pepper & drizzle with Balsamic vinegar.
At the end of the week. EASY to make a soup out of chicken & any veggie you cooked up earlier that week. Box of chicken stock maybe more depending on how big the pot is. Add all the veggies & cooked chicken cut up into bite size pieces. YOU can add frozen spinach or Kale for added flavor & greens. Bring to boil, reduce to a simmer. Cook for 15 to 30 minutes. Taste, add salt & pepper to taste. You can easily freeze this & keep it for a day you don't feel so good too. It is my go to recipe anytime I feel a cold or flu coming on. I make a big pot & heat up in microwave whenever I get hungry.
Grocery List: tri-colored peppers, 4 lemons, 1 or 2 onions, package of button mushrooms, 2 zucchini, package of cherry tomatoes, salad mix of your choice/olive oil, balsamic vinegar, salt, pepper, goat cheese, parmesan cheese, 2 boxes of chicken stock, big package of boneless skinless chicken breast or thighs, frozen kale or spinach, 2 frozen steam-in-bag brown rice, bread, hummus, greek yogurt, pasta of your choice(instructions on how to cook it on the bag.)
It should get you through most of the week. Pick a day. Go to grocery store, come home & cut all the veggies. You will need several cookie sheets & I always put parchment paper to line them to make cleaning up easier. You can bake all the food in one day, let it get to room temp then store in containers or zip lock bags to put away in frig & warm up or add to salad, bread or pasta during the week.
Good Luck,
Sam

Re: Meal & Snack Planning for the full-time Cam Girl??? Suggestions
I don't know if anyone else is loving cereal as much as I do, but I'm adding a delicious find called KRAVE chocolate. I eat it as a snack w/milk at night. Sooo delish, and satisfies the sweet tooth.:hungry:
I have my fav breakfast cereals, but I'm open to some suggestions for new ones to try.
What are some of your favorite cereals?

Re: Meal & Snack Planning for the full-time Cam Girl??? Suggestions
Haluski! (basically cabbage and noodles)
Ingredients:
1 head of cabbage
2 onions
1/2 stick of butter or olive oil
1 12 oz. bag of noodles, (I prefer wide)
(add 1 pound of bacon as an option)
salt and pepper to taste
Directions:
(if your adding bacon then cook your bacon first)
1. In a large fry pan or dutch oven, On low heat, melt butter (or bacon fat).
2. Rinse cabbage, and remove any outer leaves that look damaged.
3. Cut onions and place in the pan of melted butter or the bacon grease, turn up heat to medium so they begin to lightly brown.
4. Keep an eye on the onions and reduce heat to lowest setting once golden.
5. On a cutting board place the cabbage core side up. (facing you).
6. With a large sharp knife, slice cabbage about 1/2 inch sections from right to center core.
7. As you slice, scoop up cabbage sections and place in pan also.
Turn the cabbage and repeat this process until all that is left is the core.
8. Once all cabbage is in pan, turn up heat to medium/high and stir frequently until cabbage begins to brown and cook down.
9. add dashes of salt and pepper as you stir
10.Once cabbage and onion are nicely caramelized reduce heat to low and drain off any liquid that has accumulated.
11.Cook noodles according to package directions for aldente and drain well.
12.Add well strained noodles. If they are in one big clump, do not worry, they will break up as you stir them.
the important thing is that they are well strained of any water.
13.Add noodles to pan (and bacon bits) drizzle a little olive oil over them to help them brown.
14.Once thoroughly mixed and the noodles also have begun to caramelize, turn off heat.
15. Salt and pepper to taste but don't forget the salt shaker on the table, some like it saltier than others.

Re: Meal & Snack Planning for the full-time Cam Girl??? Suggestions
So I have my eating plan down:
Morning: Oatmeal, with sweetner and green tea
Snack: Orange or whatever other bit of fruit I choose to eat/veg dippers and humus
Lunch: Marinated chicken pieces with salad
Snack: Chunky cottage cheese on a rye cracker
Dinner: Marinated chicken piece with salad
Anything after this will be carb free, such as humus, or extra veggies, or tea etc. Hopefully I can keep to this plan and that it will provide me with enough energy for the long hours etc. I'll switch the menu up every so often so as not to get bored etc.

Re: Meal & Snack Planning for the full-time Cam Girl??? Suggestions
The only cereal I eat is all bran. Usually for breakfast or dinner. When I have that it's either with yogurt or diet milk and some fruits like pineapple and plums.
Fruits are always a good choice for a snack, but that's just me.

Re: Meal & Snack Planning for the full-time Cam Girl??? Suggestions
I'm a big fan of anything that doesn't get stuck between your teeth. (I mean, you could always turn that into a fetish video or something...). But I love those little single serving yogurts. It still looks cute on cam to eat and guys might dig the spoon licking thing.
Oh, and garbanzo beans. The canned kind are cheap, and good protein content, but fill you up like a carb.

Re: Meal & Snack Planning for the full-time Cam Girl??? Suggestions
Trader Joe's is my fav! I'm thinking places like Fresh and Easy and Whole Foods might have some good options. I usually go to TJ's once a week to pick up fruit, frozen, and ready to heat meals and snacks. :)

Re: Meal & Snack Planning for the full-time Cam Girl??? Suggestions
Apples, strawberries, blueberries, bananas, pineapple, pumpkin seeds, honey, peanut butter, fair trade chocolate, cheddar, dried fruits, nitrate free cold cuts/sausages, tea eggs, hard boiled eggs, canned tuna/salmon with sourdough toast and butter, greek yogurt, full fat yogurt, potato chips fried in avocado oil, kimchi...pretty much are my snacks when I get hungry. I follow a WAPF-ish diet (http://www.westonaprice.org/health-t...ry-guidelines/). Eat only when hungry which means some days I only eat 2 meals, other days 5 meals with a variance in calories everyday. I think that's what keeps my metabolism up.
Breakfast I eat gluten free cereal with fruit and yogurt if I'm hungry. Lunch is usually a open face sandwich. Dinner is usually Chinese or Korean dishes. Snacks are the above. I drink about 2 large mugs of tea a day...I like Numi and Teaopia loose leaf teas.
I take supplements sometimes when I feel like it mostly fermented cod liver oil, gelatin, vitamin k, dmannose and bee propolis.

Re: Meal & Snack Planning for the full-time Cam Girl??? Suggestions
Spsssst: Get a rice cooker/steamer. It's soooooo worth it. The brand I have is an Aroma 20 cup. I think I paid around $30 bucks for it at wally world. Love it.
Something super quick that I do all the time is I'll take leftover rice, toss it into a pan with pre-heated sesame oil, throw in whatever types of onion I have on hand (I'm partial to red), add an egg, scramble that through, and ta-da! Easy fried rice. To that, I can top it with steamed veggies like broccoli or for a real protein kick, I top it with black beans. If I'm feeling less veg-friendly, I'll top it with tuna or Tyson sells a 5 lbs bag of cooked dice chicken (frozen section) and I heat that up and add it in.

Re: Meal & Snack Planning for the full-time Cam Girl??? Suggestions
I also buy the Starbucks Fraps from 7-11 and keep extras if I need one before a late night camming session. Yay caffeine! Not exactly the healthiest thing but super fast and easy for a nice pick me up. I was going to crash out early instead of cam but I drank one and stayed up to make $230 so they def help! ;)

I don't have many dinner ideas but my doctor gave me these amazing pamphlets for SUPER QUICK breakfast and lunch ideas! :D
There's a site called ChooseMyPlate.gov, and they have this super cool little plate that splits your 5 food groups - Veggies, Fruits, Grains, Protein, & Dairy.

The best part is they have tons of different pinterest boards that shows images of all the food in the plate!

Re: Meal & Snack Planning for the full-time Cam Girl??? Suggestions
Has anyone had to do jury duty? Or anything else which requires You to be someplace for long amounts of time, without the ability of leaving the room? I just got picked, and the judge refused to let me out of it because of my 'poverty', and self-employment excuse.:'(
I need ideas of what to pack (besides water), for the long days during the time I am sitting in court... waiting.
' I have really bad hypoglycemic, and need to eat something every 3 hours.
Thanks in advance

Re: Meal & Snack Planning for the full-time Cam Girl??? Suggestions
I absolutely love cooking casserole dishes. They can be put in the oven and hour or so before the boyfriend comes home and it's ready when he walks in the door, with only 1 cooking dish to wash.
One of my favourite places to find quick recipes is cookingwithcampbells.com and kraft.com, they have a search parameter based on prep time and cooking time (I hate cooking for more than an hour total, I get bored and frustrated).

Re: Meal & Snack Planning for the full-time Cam Girl??? Suggestions
Glam, I just had to do this on the 20th of Oct. and it sucked!!! I hope you get a quick trial depending on how things work there. Maybe you could make some nut bars with honey? I don't have the recipe off the top of my head but I made a whole cookie sheet pan worth of bars once and it was delicious. I used various seeds I had in the house, like pumpkin, sunflower, etc. They should at least give you a lunch break around noon so you can keep larger food items in your car.
PS. If you start eating low carb (less than 20 grams of carbs per day) you will cure your hypoglycemia in a few weeks and you'll be able to go the whole day without eating, if needed. :)

Some people love jury duty and some don't at my last vanilla job--I got the federal jury duty. I was seated--then dismissed at the end of the day. I think the prosecution team wanted me gone. There were some really nice looking agents for eye candy though --off subject. I need some more food ideas since I haven't been shopping for 2 weeks

I highly suggest you stick with things that have a long last effect (things like peanut butter, eggs, milk, cheese). Going with anything short lasting (simple sugar items) will make your blood sugar spike high and basically crash.

Licorice root is the herb recommended by Naturpaths for hypoglycemia. It rapidly raises low blood sugar to overcome feelings of hunger, sugar cravings, shakiness, mental confusion and irritability associated with hypoglycemia.

Can someone suggest what size crockpot to buy?
I'm single, and live alone, so I'm a bit confused on which one would be best?
Thanks in advance.
