Arrow Help Creating a Menu?

Hi all

I was wondering if I could please have some help coming up with a menu, at least an induction menu? I've written down all the foods I like off the accepted foods list and have been trying to come up with meals/snacks, but the meals sound pretty boring to me. I'm going to search out some recipes for induction but I need to find some that fit the foods that I actually like.

Here are my 'liked' foods: tuna, chicken, turkey, clams, shrimp, beef, eggs, cheddar & mozzarella & cream cheese, tofu, celery, cucumber, lettuce, mushrooms, romaine, broccoli, cauliflower, asparagus. I like mayo and caesar & ranch dressings.

I had questions about bacon, ham, and hot dogs-- I know the book says you are allowed bacon and ham with no added sugar and without nitrates, but what about hotdogs?

Here are some ideas I have come up with (not very exciting):
Turkey and cheddar cheese omelette
Caesar salad - romaine, mozzarella, Caesar dressing
Chicken and mushrooms
Tuna with mayo and celery
Beef and broccoli/cauli/asparagus
Tofu and broccoli

Snacks: Deviled egg, celery and ranch dressing

Any comments/suggestions/recipes? Thanks SO much!!
