Healthy recipes NO SALADS?
I am getting married soon and would like to lose some pounds, the problem is I hate the universal health food, SALAD, I don't like lettuce or cabbage. Any suggestions on healthy, fast, I work 45-50 hours a week and have a new baby so time is very precious, recipes that aren't "rabbit food"?

skinless chicken breast is very low in fat and calories, and there are tons of veggies other than lettuce...broccoli and cauliflower, carrots, peppers, etc...how about fruits? You should be eating a variety of this stuff every single day anyway..
Okay, I hope that you like Tuna. Marinade 2-4 Sashimi grade tuna steaks in:
1/4 Cup Old Bay
1/2 Cup Olive Oil
4 tsp. Fresh lime juice
4 tsp. Fresh lemon juice
for at least 20 minutes. Put on grill (I use a piece of tin foil on the grill and then the tuna steak on top) Seer each side and then grill until desired doneness.
Good luck on your diet and Best wishes on your marriage.
Chicken, rice, and veggies - everyday for dinner. This is how I lost 30 pounds for my wedding. But I also worked out a lot!
I lost 60 pounds in 10 months, i swear! i ate boiled chicken breast with boiled rice and i mixed 98% fat free(just as good as the regular!) cream of mushroom soup in it. TRY IT!! Good luck and congrats on the wedding! My 1 year anniversary is tommarow!!
also use lean hamburger in any meal and cut out half the fat and seafood alfredo(you can buy it frozen at your local supermarket) has only 4 grams of fat per seving, its great also
eat chicken fryed in olive oil. It's healthy. Eat some of those Quaker Oats rice Cakes. Yummy!
Skinless/lean chicken breast wholemeal sandwich, with cheese. Add tomatoes. Ham too. And for drink, water. Just wrap it up and put it in a lunch box.
