So what are some of your favorite healthy things to cook on the Forman Grill?
With chicken, I buy a family size boneless, skinless chicken breast pack. Then I buy a bottle of 30 minute marinade (Caribbean Jerk is good) and put each breast in a separate Zip-Lock freezer bag with some marinade. I let them marinade for 30 minutes or so then label and freeze them. I just thaw them out individually as needed. Very tasty
Serve this flavorful steak main dish recipe with a green salad, some chewy french bread, and a melon salad.
INGREDIENTS:
1/4 cup finely chopped onion
2 Tbsp. brown sugar
3 Tbsp. oil
2 Tbsp. apple cider vinegar
1 Tbsp. grated ginger root
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. pepper
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 lb. top round beef steak
1/2 pound cremini mushrooms
PREPARATION:
Combine all ingredients except steak in a zip lock plastic bag. Slice steak into 1/2" thick slices. Add steak slices to bag, seal bag, and turn to coat. Place bag in bowl or pan, cover, and refrigerate at least 6 hours.
Drain steak slices. Thread steak strips onto 6 skewers along with mushrooms and grill on George Foreman two sided grill for 3-5 minutes until desired doneness. Or, grill on outdoor grill for 7-12 minutes, turning often and brushing frequently with marinade, until steak is desired doneness and mushrooms are tender. 4 servings
George's Roasted Asparagus
George's favorite way to grill asparagus is also the easiest. This recipe gets the vegetable to the table in 7 minutes or less. Freshly grated Parmesan makes everything taste better and this is no exception.
1 pound medium to thin asparagus, woody stems snapped off and discarded
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese, preferably fresh
Preheat the grill to high. Toss the asparagus with the olive oil, salt and pepper in a medium bowl. Grill the asparagus spears (in batches, if necessary, depending upon the size of your grill) for about 7 minutes until they have taken on grill marks and are tender. Serve hot or at room temperature, sprinkled with the Parmesan.

Greek Style Chicken Kebabs
These kebabs are George's eating philosophy on a stick: fresh, healthy ingredients, perfectly grilled, that can satisfy even a heavyweight-champion-of-the-world appetite!
2 tablespoons olive oil
Juice of 1 lemon
4 garlic cloves, crushed
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breast, cut into 1-inch cubes
1 large red onion, cut into 1-inch chunks
8 (8-inch) bamboo skewers
In a large bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, oregano, salt, and pepper. Add the chicken and onion and turn to coat. Cover with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes or up to 2 hours.
Preheat the grill to high.
Thread the chicken and onion onto the skewers, reserving the marinade in the bowl. Grill the skewers (in batches, if necessary, depending upon the size of your grill) for 2 minutes and then brush with the reserved marinade; discard any remaining marinade. Grill for about 2 minutes more, until the chicken has taken on grill marks and is cooked through. Serve immediately.

Speedy Salmon with Dijon Glaze
Salmon is a delicious way to get powerful, beneficial nutrition and great flavor on your table. It's one of the most popular American fish, and almost everybody loves its great texture and taste. This dish is foolproof, even if you've never cooked fish before. Serve it to the family or whip it up for company.
For the glaze
1/4 cup olive oil
3 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1 shallot, minced
Whisk together the olive oil, soy sauce, mustard, and shallot in a small bowl. Transfer half of the glaze to another small bowl and set aside to spoon over the cooked salmon.
For the salmon
4 (6-ounce) skinless salmon fillets, about 3/4-inch thick
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Preheat the grill to medium. Season the salmon fillets on both sides with the salt and pepper. Put the fillets on the grill (in batches, if necessary, depending on the size of your grill) and brush them with half of the glaze. Grill for 2 minutes, then brush with the remaining glaze. Grill for about 2 minutes more. To test for doneness, prod an edge of the fillet with a fork. The fish should flake but the center will still be a bit rosy.
Serve the salmon either hot from the grill or at room temperature. Drizzle the reserved glaze over the fillets just before serving.

When I lived with my parent's we used it alot, it's very nice. Especially when you cook greasy foods, you don't realize how much fat is in the food until you see it in the drain pan.

I'm just starting to use one, and I can already see the benefits. Since things are cooked on both sides at once - they cook a lot faster. You can thoroughly cook a boneless skinless chicken breast in about 6 minutes.
I got the normal / small one at Target for $20. They also have bigger and better ones with adjustable temp and removable grill plates for the dishwasher.
Grilled Orange Chicken
Marinade chicken breasts in fresh orange juice with a hint of lime, then grill them on the George Foreman Grill? Yummy!
I found this recipe through the Beer Belly Blog. The blog has several posts about losing weight, and several recipes — most of which don’t use the George Foreman Grill.
Ingredients:
3 chopped orange segments
1/4 cup orange juice (no pulp)
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
2 tsp lime juice
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 tsp dried thyme
1 tsp dried oregano
1 tsp salt
1 tsp black pepper
1 lb boneless skinless chicken breasts
Directions:
Place all ingredients into a Zip-Loc bag. Massage the bag for a minute or so. Put bag in the refrigerator for about an hour.
When desired time has passed, take out the bag and remove the chicken breasts. Grill chicken for around 4 to 8 minutes, or until juices run clear.
George's Roasted Asparagus
George's favorite way to grill asparagus is also the easiest. This recipe gets the vegetable to the table in 7 minutes or less. Freshly grated Parmesan makes everything taste better and this is no exception.
1 pound medium to thin asparagus, woody stems snapped off and discarded

Grill the asparagus spears (in batches, if necessary, depending upon the size of your grill) for about 7 minutes until they have taken on grill marks and are tender. Serve hot or at room temperature, sprinkled with the Parmesan.
