Help! What do I cook?

[Ren Inja]

Okay, so I'm finally trying to start the protocol. It says that we have to grill one of the meat choices. I'm not that good at cooking so does this mean that we actually have to grill it or can we just put it in the oven? Also, it says that the fish has to be fresh, but I know I can't go out and buy fresh fish everyday. Is it okay to freeze the fish or refrigerate it to have some for a few days? Another thing I need help with are the spices. I do not know how to use spices beyond salt, pepper, and sugar.

I am really curious what meals others were able to concoct for lunch and dinner. If I were cooking like usual, I wouldn't have much of a problem but since I have to follow a specific protocol, it seems a little difficult. The only thing keeping me from starting the program right now is that I don't know what meals to put together and I don't want to end up making something that negatively affects my results. If I could get some ideas on what to pair the listed spices with that would help too. One more thing that would be great is if someone could suggest a brand of chicken breast to buy.

I hope these aren't silly questions because I really want to make sure I do this right. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated! ^_^

There are no silly questions. For the protein, you take a pan heat on medium. Fry it in the pan dry,no oils at all. Slice the protein in 1/4 inch slices. Be careful it will cook quickly. Cook about 2 minutes on one side and 1 minute on the other. Salt, pepper and powdered garlic only please. As far as freezing goes, that is fine. if you buy the fish raw and then freeze. Chicken breast is best organic - if you can afford it. If not, Foster Farms makes a chicken breast without salt added.
For vegetables you can steam them or eat them raw, whichever you prefer.

I like this recipe:

take 100 grams of protein, place a pot on medium. Get it hot. Brown the protein in the bottom of the pot add 1-2 cups water and 1 cup celery or cabbage. Let simmer for 20 minutes. It is a nice warm meal.

I can't live without my george foreman grill and emiral's "Bam" spice. It gets me thru this phase! Good luck!

[Ren Inja]

Thank you! Did it affect results at all?

Sorry Jenny. Please do not use the Emeril seasonings ~ Linda

I love the same receipe that Linda mentioned above, except I use a sweet onion. yummie!

I take some of my chicken breast and grind it up or you can cut I up and sauté in a little water, cumin salt pepper and garlic powder and eat it on lettuce leaves. It's wonderful. You could actually leave out the salt all together if you wanted to.
