New and have a few questions

Hi!
I just started the SBD today! My DH and I are doing it together. A friend of mine from another board got us interested, and now we are on our way!
Anyway, I tried to search for some answers to a couple of questions, but was feeling overwhelmed, so I am hoping it's ok to ask them here.

Here is our chili recipe....is it ok?
1 lb extra lean ground beef browned with onion
1 packet of chili-o
2 large cans of light red kidney beans
1 small can of tomato paste
Do those ingredients work? Also, is there a limit to how much you can eat in phase 1?

Here is our pasta sauce recipe. Is it ok?
1 large can tomato puree
1 8 oz can of tomato sauce
1 small can of tomato paste
2 tbs of Splenda
garlic
basil
oregano
2 bone-in pork chops cooked in the sauce

And one other question please, is egg-drop soup something we can have in phase 1?

Thanks so much!!
Carla

No trouble..I'm glad I was of some help. I'm relatively new here myself..just on my first week of phase 2, so I'm still learning too...I'm learning most of all to be a 'label reader'!!!

I'm looking forward to phase 2 for a bagel and maybe a glass of white wine!

I know how you feel!!! I had a whole wheat bagel yesterday and I was SO happy!!! And today, a half banana with a tablespoon of peanut butter. It sure was great!!! Just keep chugging along, both of you..you will get there!!!
