Goals

For my cholesterol, I'm aiming for:

For a healthier diet over all, I'm aiming for (daily):

Pick snacks where Protein + Fiber > Added Sugar
When picking lean meat, the protein should >= (the total calories/10) e.g. serving of 290calories should have at leats 29 g of protein
Set an alarm to eat if you tend to wait until you're ravenous. That way you can make healthier decisions.
Have healthy snacks on hand for emergencies :)

Note: Each meal should have at least 30g of protein to feel satiated

Chicken adobo with cauliflower rice
Chicken shawarma grains bowl (i did 1.5lbs meat and honestly could have done 2lbs and probably would be even better) with Seeds of Change microwaveable rice
Kholrabi noodle salad https://www.loveandlemons.com/kohlrabi-noodle-salad/
Turkey protein vodka pasta with half nonfat cottage cheese rather than all fullfat (could also do reduced fat for the whole portion probably) https://www.eatingbirdfood.com/cottage-cheese-pasta/
I decently liked Kevin's korean bbq beef + seeds of change ^ + frozen mixed veggies - all from costco
Decently liked these sheet pan chicken fajitas but i'd double the protein for more filling portions. I made guacamole and ate it with Seeds of Change rice/quinoa and cauliflower rice.
I often make these banana oat pancakes (there are different variations of this, but I do this one because I don't have a blender to finely ground the flour. perhaps the peanutbutter isn't helping my goals though haha) https://meaningfuleats.com/banana-egg-almond-butter-pancakes-grain-free-dairy-free/
This fish was great when I first made it https://www.jaroflemons.com/mahi-mahi-taco-bowls/#wprm-recipe-container-11449
First time making mushrooms that I liked https://www.healthy-delicious.com/lemon-parmesan-gnocchi-with-mushrooms-sheet-pan-dinner/

Note: to stave off hunger for a bit, the snack should have at least 10g of protein

Smoothies (frozen fruit, spinach/kale/avocado, chia, protein powder)
Aloha bars
RX protein bars (Target) - Oat & Honey, Peanutbutter & Chocolate
magic spoon cereal + unsweetened flax milk + collagen powder
Chobani? protein smoothies from costco
trader joes organic chicken dipped in trader joes 3 layer hummus dip
scrambled egg plus egg whites, low fat cottage cheese, pepper, chives and anything else to top it off.. basil pesto works too
roasted sweet potato + murasaki sweet potato
guilty pleasure of mine is popcorner chips; they don't have enough protein to count as a good snack but... they aren't horrible in macros otherwise if you're not necessarily limiting your calorie intake
these were amazing - the sugar listed is total sugar, so the "added sugar" is less (just from the honey + pinch of brown sugar on top). I'd guess the actual added sugar on their recipe would be about 9g per muffin which just barely meets the protein+fiber>added sugar formula. (I made mini muffins so it's probably around 4-5g each... probably could make a half-batch next time.) https://thebalancednutritionist.com/kodiak-pumpkin-muffins/
