Dinner-Week 2

I'm usually at my creative cooking peak for dinner time.  I like to try new recipes and decided to lighten up "must haves" for this Weight Watchers outing.

Friday
"Skinny Cajun Chicken Pasta"-10 pts with salad (0 pts) and greek yogurt salad dressing (2 pts for 2 tbsp)

While I did lighten it up, I can't recommend this one.  You'll just have to take my word that it was only okay and while it did create a nice, big serving for ten points...well...there are a lot of things I'd rather eat so this one go into rotation.

Lunch-Week 2

The hours between noon and 5 are my hardest times during the day.  Those bad decsions seem to come at me from every corner. If I've skipped breakfast, I'm probably getting REALLY hungry and a little bit desperate and that leads to bad choices.  I'm working on trying to find healthy, low point things to eat on the run and to get off my fast food roller coaster.

Friday
Chipotle Barbacoa Salad-10 pts
I get mine with barbacoa (the lowest point meat chipotle serves), fajita vegetables, lettuce, salsa (corn and mild), black beans (tons of fiber), light cheese and light guac.  Delish.

Breakfast-Week 2

You know, some people are really good at eating the same thing every day.  When the Mister makes breakfast before commuting to work he eats the same thing; 2 eggs and a bowl of oatmeal.  My Aunt eats the same lunch every work day.  I can't do that.  Of course, I'll still be getting a lot of distance out of my Breakfast Sandwich Florentine (it's just THAT good) but I have to mix it up to keep me happy.

Friday
Weigh In Day!  That means no breakfast.
