This is what I make for chili...
about a 1/2 pound of lean ground beef, and 1/2 pound of ground chicken
1 can kidney beans
1 can black beans (rinsed)
1 can brown beans
2 cans tomatos
diced pepper and onion
chili powder
cayenne pepper
whatever else you want to add! I make it in the slow cooker all day, then freeze it in these new ziploc containers with the twist-on lids. You can fit 1 1/2 cups in a container. Yummy!

Great
Why hasn't anyone else add more recepies, those two you gave us are great. I am definately going to try them, I am one of those all day in the office people, and do try to bring my daily dose of food to work, from my vegetables, fruits, vegetable juices etc, but the only thing for lunch I take are the famous frozen foods, which I think are the ones doing me in, it is great to find recepies to be able to freeze and just take the container for the day, I just wish I could find more of these healthy recepies, I am trying to get away from the bad carbs, I try to do proteins, vegetables, fruits, one starch a day which I usually save for breakfast because is either Kashi cereal or an whole grain english muffin with all fruit or something like that, even that is getting quiet boring, but have no other ideas for breakfast that is not starch or eggs, I also have eggs sometimes, but i try to leave the proteins for lunch and dinner, with a salad or vegetable, even eating like this I am totally stuck and can't loose the stubborn weight. I do cereal in the morning, then 10;30, either a vegetable juice, with a protein bar, and a fruit, then at 1 lunch is one of the frozen meals, and a fruit, then 2;30 another fruit and or vegetable snack, then at 4 or 5 a protein bar to hold me till dinner, at 7 some type of meat, chicken, fish, steak, and salad and another piece of fruit, and I am done for the day, but the weight is still not budging for some reason, and I don't think i eat bad, I do drink about 4 large bottles of water a day, and try my best to do all "low sodium" as I suffer from very high blood preasure, so I do check the sodium on everything. My only problem is exercise, that I either start all crazy doing great, but after 6 wks when i see no results that is it i quit.....

I like to bake chicken breasts with peppers, then freeze then in frezzer bags, they warm up in about 4min and then with some cottage cheese it makes a great meal to take to the office, or wherever. I also like to cook a potato in the microwave for like 5 or 6 min and then eat it with sourcream and chives, all you have to take is a potato and a container of sourcream and chives, these are easy and fast!!!!
