I don't care so much about dieting, but I'm very interested in finding foods that are healthy and easy to make. I find I'm much more productive when I have a premade or easily prepared meal. I like having an obvious choice for a meal that I don't have to think about. So far I've found: * Non-fat Cottage Cheese and Apples/Applesauce * Bean Burritos with a light amount of sharp cheddar (the sharper the cheddar the less you need to use), making about 5-6 in a batch. * Rice-A-Roni Red Beans and Rice If I could skip a meal each day without screwing up my metabolism or energy level (which this article seems to suggest), that could be useful.

Have you ever combined the cottage cheese and the apples? Heaven in my mouth.

I like eating very large salads. 750-1000 calorie salads. It's extremely satisfying and it's very easy to change aspects of it to keep up variety. Here's how I do it. Half of a bag of cut and washed lettuce. I usually go with Trader Joe's mixed greens. Bonus points if it doesn't come from a bag. More vegetables, whatever you have around. I like carrots, green onions, and all kinds of peppers. 8-12 ounces of chicken cooked and seasoned to taste, pre-cooked frozen chicken is fine as long as it is actual non-nugget type chicken. Cheese. I like Jarlsberg. Croutons or any other type of crunchy carbohydrate. I like bagel chips. Homemade Italian dressing. Google up some different recipes and keep playing until you get it perfect. But any dressing you make yourself with olive oil will beat the mass produced Italian dressing with sugar needlessly added.
