      Great advice, herberkids3! We focus on beans, rice, and pasta (so more carbs)

      with meat used as seasoning/side dish. For example, red beans and rice ( w/ a

      small amount of sausage thrown in) with corn bread. Pasta with meat sauce.

      Vegetable fried rice (w/ egg scramble up in it). And casseroles, casseroles,

      casseroles. We also get our protein from tofu. I can get a box of tofu for less

      than a dollar and use it to make mushroom tofu stroganoff or tofu scramble or as

      a base for ‘creamy’ soups.
