A few of my favorite things….

January 11, 2011 by DanicasDaily 14 Comments

HAPPY BIGGEST LOSER DAY all! Do you ever have a breakfast that’s SO GOOD that you just need to have it again?! Umm, that was ME – TODAY!  I’d probably do it again if I had more Oikos, but…..I don’t Winking smile

2 crunchy, salty slices of Trader Joe’s Turkey Bacon ~ It’s my FAVORITE! (2 points+)

Weight Watchers Bacon

Ok, I did “mix it up” a little with a few POM seeds for color and my berries hopped onto my FAVORITE Oikos Blueberry Greek yogurt cup (3 points+)

POM Yogurt

Quite possibly my FAVORITE new fruit salad….I LOVE the crunch & COLOR of the POM seeds.

POM Aerials

5 points+ and I am pretty sure I was making noises at my desk while eating it Open-mouthed smile MMMM!

Weight Watchers quick breakfasts

Today was insanely busy and after 5 hours, I still didn’t have a chance for lunch.  The TOTAL highlight of my day (aside from getting my project done) was knowing I could have all of this for only 2 points+ Open-mouthed smile

Fruit Snacks

I think I NEED to reach for fruit more often for my snacks because it totally made me OK with not being able to have lunch until 3 PM (8 HOURS after breakfast).

I honestly think this Cheesy Pesto Spaghetti & Meatball Casserole is even better the next day (9 points+)….maybe a new fav Winking smile

Clean Eating Spaghetti

My co-worker brought over some DOVE LOVE for dessert ~ I <3 her too! (3 Points+ because the one I ate while chatting was picture shy).

Low Point Chocolate

When I got home at 7:00, I showed The Husband our meal plan.  He picked something not on it at all LOL, but, I was totally up for BREAKFAST FOR DINNER!

1 Scrambled Egg that was covered in Srirachi Post pic (2 points+)

Scrambled Eggs

“Fried Potatoes with Peppers and Onions” ~ I made them just like I did HERE.(4 points+ for 1/4 of the pan)

Weight Watchers hashbrowns

One of MY FAVORITE TRADER JOE’S SAUSAGES ~ Sweet Apple & Maple Chicken Sausage.

The BEST PART ~ ONLY 3 points+ per link!!!

Salty, sweet, mapley, GOOD!

Low point sausages

Not pretty, but, super tasty and I am pretty sure I downed this in under 5 minutes Smile

    My favorite meal is breakfast too. That’s why I have it for lunch and dinner too some days.

    breakfast is by far my favorite meal. I could eat it for every meal.

    On weekends at home, I have it twice usually. Once before the gym and then again at lunch (because my other half often sleeps til noon on the weekends)

    I had made some breakfast potatoes very similar to your on Sunday and then I took those leftovers and made them over into a ham n’ potato casserole last night 😀 It wasn’t breakfast for dinner, but if I had made an egg and added it to the top it totally would have been.

    I dvred my first episode of biggest loser !?!?! Can you believe I have never seen it. I was flipping through the channels last night and saw a few minutes of it and needed to see more.

    Have a great day !!

    I love following your blog! I especially love your information about Trader Joe’s products. My closest TJ isn’t that close, so I only go there when I’m near it, such as when I take my husband to the airport. Since I’ve been following your blog, I’ve been compiling a Trader Joe’s shopping list next to my computer so I can remember to purchase the items you recommend. So, THANKS!

    Danica,
    At some point in time could you compile a list of your favorite products from Trader Joe’s. Their store is not very close to me so I would like to be prepared when I do make the trip. Your site has been a big help and I love that you are doing points+. Thanks for your help!

    I could really make any meal my fave but breakfast (especially a naughty one) is my fave! hahaa

    And I’m totally rooting for the turquoise team!!! They are from my city & I can admit I’ve eaten at their Dairy Queen more than a few times! lol She’s a neat girl though!!!

    I don’t think I have a favorite person/team from the Biggest Loser just yet. Time will tell.

    I love dinner, because it’s acceptable to have just about anything at that time of day, even breakfast. 😉

    Hi Joyce,

    I am working on putting a list of my favorite Trader Joe’s items together (hopefully with points+ values if I have time) by the end of the month. I have a good brainstorm list going that I will email to you, but, will post the final version here soon.

    Thanks for asking and have a great weekend!

    Dinner is my most favorite because I can relax & enjoy it & I like preparing it the most as well.

    Breakfast is usually in a rush for me, but I LOVE the socializing (& drinking ha ha) of brunch. The ultimate Sunday meal!
