I found a great new healthy dinner that everyone went nuts for. I desperately needed to use up odds and ends from my fridge, so I took all my veggies and grilled them and put them into individual bowls. Then I sautéed just one pack of lean ground beef (plain) and put into a bowl. Then made some basmati rice (plain), chopped tomatoes and cucumbers and carrots (all raw), sliced lemons and avocado, shredded cabbage, etc.
I had about a dozen bowls on my table, and I added whatever healthy sauces I could: guacamole, salsa, homemade mayo, etc. and I also had tortilla wraps for whomever wanted.
Everyone could pick whatever they wanted and could build whatever meal they felt like eating.
We all just made a big messy pile of food on our plates, mixed in some sauce and ate. My husband and kids loved it! And it didn't take as long as you'd think! And it was a great way to use up odds and ends from my fridge!

I didn't see this post until now but basically I dredge the chicken cutlet nugget sized pieces in a mixture of flour, sesame seeds and seasonings. Drizzle or spray with olive oil. Bake uncovered for 20 minutes. Boil up sauce of soy sauce, honey, water, ginger, red pepper, corn starch until thickened. Pour over baked nuggets.

I'm craving sesame chicken but on a restricted diet. How can I do a sauce without soy sauce, peppers, ketchup, corn starch? Any ideas?
I need to stay away from preservatives as well so duck sauce or jam won't work...

Take some frozen peaches, defrost and blend, add a little bit of balsamic vinegar to give it a little tang.
I do the same with dried apricots that I soaked, but don't know if they have preservatives.

What can you have?
You can make a sauce with honey, tomato paste, orange juice, toasted sesame oil, garlic, ginger, salt.
Any of those ingredients not doable for your restricted diet?

No cooked nightshades.
My diet is as follows: (can use menu planning help!)
No beans of any sort ( including cofee, cocoa, peas etc,)
No wheat (spelt and kamut are OK though b"H)
No nuts
No oats or white rice
No dairy
No processed sugars, preservatives and chemicals
Breakfast is up to 4 cups fruits
Lunch is a starch and salad
Supper is protein and salad with sprouts or switch and do protein for lunch and starch for dinner.
I can snack on dried fruits, coconut, or way better sweet potato chip but best to limit snacking.
I need ideas first of all on how to go about chulent. I think I need to do like a sefardic chulent! Dunno how its done!
Need more salad ideas, especially for those sprouts cuz I don't love cow grazing...
Also, its best if I utilize my one starch a day to a very healthy grain. I'm bored of quiona and kasha already. Need ideas for alternate grains like millet, farro etc. And cuz I'm early pg. cannot look at fish or chicken bottoms ,( and red meat not an option) .
AND I'm CRAVING CHOCOLATE!!!!!! (And cheesecake and kokosh cake. Yum!)
So, anyone up for the challenge in helping me with a menu?????
TIA!!
ETA: I can now increase to a starch and protein for lunch and dinner.
Clarifying re fish- I do eat tuna and flounder ( ok, also sea bass but who affords that?)
Help for menu would be greatly appreciated!!

Warning
I never tried any of these recipes
Here's a farro "cholent"
https://www.washingtonpost.com.....ee4eb
Leave out fava beans, and any other ingredient you can't have.
Cheesecake, raw vegan and nut free
http://rawmazing.com/recipe/st.....nuts/
You can substitute carob for cocoa, or leave it out.o
I don't have a kokosh recipe, but here's a nice cinnamon recipe
Again I never tried it, but it looks good.

Wow you are all amazing...
To me, at this very pregnant moment, a healthy dinner consists of:
“Cheerios and milk”
As opposed to the less healthy version of:
“HONEY NUT Cheerios and milk”

Keto pizza:
I cup mozzarella cheese, 2 eggs, I cup riced cauliflower. Mix the "dough" and spread on baking sheet. Bake for about 20 min. Top with sauce and more mozzarella cheese. Bake til cheese is melted.
I do a lot of chicken salad and salmon salad-with spinach and other veggies
Fish patties from canned salmon made with eggs and flax meal as a filler
