You can really eat any protein.&nbsp; I told you about a book I bought on ebay very cheaply which had great recipes for people wanting to lower blood sugar.&nbsp; I made the protein&nbsp;meat patties, doubled the recipe, wrapped individually the patties, and froze, so easy to heat or fry for breakfast.</FONT></P><P>&nbsp;</P><P><FONT size="4">&nbsp; More times than not, I eat peanuts.&nbsp; I buy redskin peanuts from amazon, just enough salt for flavor, good size so that one at a time gives a good mouth feel, and I can get a nice chew, these hold me until dinner.&nbsp; They make a good snack as they are protein and filling.&nbsp; I measure them at 1/4 cup,I am so short, am sure taller people could eat more than that, otherwise, I get carried away, lol.&nbsp; Remmy begs as he likes them also, but I only give him tiny snacks, especially if I see he is becoming a bit rotund, lol.</FONT></P><P>&nbsp;</P><P><FONT size="4">Some brunches I eat oatmeal, also protein, and some I eat plain bran flakes with tea, as I can't eat the same every day.&nbsp; You may be surprised at how many&nbsp;veges have protein.</FONT></P><P>&nbsp;</P><P><FONT size="4">I eat beans, other than green, in soups I make, salads, as spreads, and tacos.&nbsp; I had some leftover refried beans from dinner one morning, so placed two poached eggs on top of them in a bowl, yummy!</FONT></P><P>&nbsp;</P><P><FONT size="4">For dinner, it is either shellfish, fish, chicken or pork ribeyes from here, prepared in different ways, beef maybe one a month, and I do not eat meat every night, usually every second-third night, as it is heavy for me.</FONT></P> Sat, 07 Sep 2024 23:14:07 GMT mousiegirl 2024-09-07T23:14:07Z https://community.qvc.com/t5/Among-Friends/S-more-Summer-Fun/m-p/8487012#M701268 <P><IMG src="https://i.pinimg.com/236x/da/59/f4/da59f47fff4b90af8989c54b06007b75.jpg" border="0" alt="This may contain: a poster with the words life is s'more fun with friends like you" width="465" height="678" /></P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P><IMG src="https://i.pinimg.com/236x/9c/af/8f/9caf8f1b61c2aa5df9b3ba500a626893.jpg" border="0" alt="In this charming picture book, a cheerful family tumbles out of the car and onto the beach, ready for a perfect day.
