So I think the best thing I've learned to make since I started on this diet -- except for my now famous (among my friends and family) "fried rice" quinoa -- is my version of those delicious cheesy skillet meals you get at diners. Instead of potatoes, mine are based on sweet onions. Tonight I had sweet onions, egg whites, chicken chorizo, spinach, and low-fat swiss cheese and it was delicious beyond all possible belief. I also do it with turkey Italian sausage and tomato sauce so it comes out like pizza which is so satisfying in a world that no longer includes pizza. Actually, it's been years since I ate pizza with any regularity, but I still get cravings for it, and when I do, I make this Italian sausage pizza skillet. It's got all the rich flavor and cheesiness of pizza, but without the oil or the crust, which is where all the pizza bad stuff is. Yum
