Chicken Cordon Bleu

This was a huge hit at my house. Jeremy loved it, and I actually found a chicken recipe I could stomach. It was 280 calories for the chicken. I served it with a slice of garlic bread, and salad with feta cheese. The meal came to 550 calories. It left us feeling satisfied, which is a huge deal for this whole life style change. :)

Wing Wraps
This recipe turned out to be a great lunch option, and quick dinner solution. They are vegetarian buffalo wings topped with low-fat Mexican cheese mix, and taco seasoned fat free sour cream. Served with vegetables it is a perfect solution for the nights when I don't want to cook. The dinner usually comes out to around 400 calories for 2 wraps, and carrots on the side.

Adios 250s!

I have reached the 240s weighing in yesterday at 249.
So far I have lost 14 pounds.

Recipe Review

I thought I would review the recipes as I go through them. I don't know who would read about it, but it sounds like a good idea to me. :o)

Fusilli with Italian Turkey Sausage and Arugula
This made a great dinner for a lighter calorie day.
It was a hit with both me and Jeremy, though he would like it if there were no tomatoes in it.
It took me about 40 minutes to prepare the dinner. 2 cups is 412 calories. I sided it with garlic bread (150 calories for 2 slices) and green salad topped with feta (about 80 calories). This made a perfect Sunday night dinner, and with it being Italian Turkey sausage, I couldn't tell it was poultry. :o)
