Default Would anyone be intersted in daily meal plan posts?

I know there are some other sections on these forums dedicated to food and recipes, but I was thinking more along the lines of daily meal plans. I figured it might help some of the new people figure out what to eat and offer any of us ideas on how to switch things up. I admit I'm not perfect every day, but I do pretty good during the week at sticking to my calorie range and macronutrients (I use sparkpeople to track). I also just really love cooking and coming up with creative new ideas, and I have a food blog I'd be willing to share.

Anyway, I'll start, and if you are interested, feel free to join in! I will try to continue it if there seems to be a good response.

Today is a non-workout day for me.

B: 1 link spinach-asiago chicken sausage with 1/2 cup scrambled Eggbeaters

S: Chobani nonfat peach-flavored Greek yogurt (6oz cup) with 1/3 cup Zoe's honey-almond granola

L: low-carb lavash wrap (Joseph's brand, I love these things!) with 3oz grilled chicken, greens, tomatoes, onion, and honey mustard; and a serving of edamame spinkled with a Thai seasoning blend.

S: South Beach Diet High Protein Peanut Butter cereal bar

D: Portobello Black Bean burger on an Arnold sandwich thin with 1/4 of an avocado, butternut squash "fries" dipped in tahini-yogurt sauce

S: chocolate cheesecake mousse (a concoction I make by blending cottage cheese, cocoa powder, a tsp of agave and 1 packet of Truvia until completely smooth). 1 square dark chocolate.

Totals: 1663 cals, 45% carbs, 31% protein, 24% fat (also, 40gm of fiber today, which accounts for some of those carbs, so I don't feel bad that it's a bit high!)

Most people track it in their log.
I'd suggest a better place for such a thing with be the nutrition/diet forum. More on topic, and prolly more intuitive a place for people to look for food/nutrition/diet ideas.

I hadn't considered chocolate and cottage cheese. The more I think about it the more I'm liking it.

I like this idea. I would definitely participate wherever it ends up.
