HCG Diet Appropriate: White Chili

WOW Just found this.... sounds delish! I am going to make it tomorrow and will post my comments/additions.

Spicy White Chili

100g cooked chicken breast, shredded
1-4 c broth (depending on how soupy you want it)
4 cloves minced garlic
1/2 t cumin
1/4 t oregano
1/4 t red pepper flakes
1/8 t ground cloves
tabasco or hot sauce to taste

1. Preheat pot over MED-HI heat.
2. Add all ingredients except for tabasco/hot sauce.
3. Bring to a boil then reduce heat to simmer, cover, & cook 30 mins.
4. Add tabasco or hot sauce right before serving.


TIP: This is also great fixed in a small crockpot. Toss everything in and put it on while you're out and come back to great tasting dinner! If using the crockpot, you can use cut up uncooked chicken (even frozen!). Feel free to add your allowed vegetable to this as well - I usually add chopped onion.

HCG Diet Appropriate: Broccoli omlet



HCG is one of the hardest diets I have ever done, but it is most definitely the most rewarding. I have lost more weight than I care to mention by being diligent and not cheating; however, staying on track with the diet is much easier when you know how to make delicious food with the allowed ingredients. The following meal makes me feel almost normal... enjoy:

1 egg
3 egg whites
100g (3.5oz) of raw broccoli
Tony Chachere's Creole Seasoning



Whisk egg whites and egg until fluffy. Cook on medium-low for 2 minutes. Add broccoli and Tony the Amazing. Cook slowly, otherwise the egg whites will taste weird) until the broccoli is bright green and the eggs are at a desired consistency. THAT'S IT! Easy peasy... delishy and nutrishy!
