Speaking of eating

What do you eat, especially if you are on bedrest? I am so tired of everything. I am used to cooking nice meals every night and now I have to rely on DH to pick stuff up for me (He cannot cook a thing).  I need some ideas to so I can make his next grocery list. (I am allowed up to at least heat stuff up for myself)

    Do you guys have a Trader Joe's out there?

    I eat Stouffer's frozen meals fairly frequently. They usually have a ton of calories, fat, and protein. Lots of sodium too, but so far my BP has been ok.

    Peanut butter - on crackers, apples, by the spoonful

    maybe one of those pre-cooked rotisserie chickens from the grocery store?

    get friends to bring meals?

    lots of ice cream!

    thankfully my husband can cook so that helps - but I'm not allowed to get up to microwave leftovers. boo. so I can only have microwaved lunches on the days he works from home.

    There are some great (microwave) steam in sauce veggies or rice out there, with some deli meatloaf or prepared main dish.  Some groceries are better than others with their deli stuff. 

    If he can turn on an oven, there are all the frozen basics: lasagna, Bertolli makes a baked version rather than skillet, Crockpot freezer stuff, he could bake some garlic bread and throw together a salad for you? 

    I think Tyson or one of the others makes precooked sliced chicken (think fajita style) and you could have that over a salad or a take and bake pizza?

    Frozen tortellini + a jar of pasta sauce makes a quick and easy dinner. Hummus and pita, too. And I'll second the pre-cooked rotisserie chicken, if he'd be able to cut it up for you (I get grossed out handling chicken these days, so I have to have DW cut it). It's good warm, or cold on a salad. GL!
