Default Convenience foods
I was desperately seeking a few convenience foods for when time is of the essence and I think I found a few and wondered if any of you have tried them. I found that South Beach has a frozen meal that really seems to meet Atkins induction rules. It's the Caprese Chicken meal. Also, Safeway has a new line of fully cooked chicken breasts and a couple of them contained sugars but I got the buffalo style chicken breasts. I added one to a salad with grape tomatoes and blue cheese dressing and it's AWESOME!! Does anyone have any others?

Man pitch those south beach pieces of crap.

It may have 3 grams of fiber but those 9 grams of sugar are not doing you any favors. A little beef or turkey jerky is just as convenience as that stuff is, assuming you can find non sugared jerky, which I'll admit can be a pain sometimes.

I'm pretty tired but I'll come up with better convenience foods tomorrow morning.

Deviled Eggs always kick butt, you can make a weeks worth in 30 minutes on sunday.

It actually takes longer to get that thing out of the box, in the microwave, cut the slits, take it out, burn your finger, and eat the pieces of frozen cardboard aka vegetables, than it would to grab a head of romaine lettuce, take your cauliflower head and smash it ( lol thats my method ) toss some mayo on the romaine leaf, toss some cauliflower on it, a couple slices of cheese and a piece of roast beef or turkey or some bacon strips and have a rollup sandwich

I haven't been able to find jerky without sugar. I think I'm going to have to order some online. As for the deviled eggs, I thought that was an excellent idea last week. In fact, I made 18 of them and by the time I woke up the next day my darling family had polished them off. Apparently they're a hit. I like the roll-up idea though.

Make a bunch of Egg Mock muffins ahead of time. They are cheap to make, portable and super yummy.

Thanks Niki and Bluehex. I haven't tried either of those recipes yet but I will.
