Happy Monday all! I am going to “fly by” doing this post as quick as I can because The Bachelor Pad Finale is about to start ~ wooohooo! Who are you rooting for?
Breakfast today was super crunchy and sorta fun to eat. I actually kinda “dig” eating cucumber slices for breakfast for my quick 1/2 cup of veggies ~ they are light, refreshing and crunchy.
Trader Joe’s 97% Fat Free Turkey Bacon (2 pts)
I combined this with a grande iced nonfat decaf latte (2 pts) Weird combo, but, it was completely filling.
Mid-morning snack (1 pt)
Can you tell yet that I was rushing out the door again? Lunch started with a simple salad with Newman’s Own Light Lime Vinaigrette (1 pt).
Plus “s’more” Chipotle Chicken & Chickpea Soup (7 pts)
This afternoon I snacked on HOT & Spicy Peanuts (20 for 2 pts).
Last night’s dinner was SO AWESOME that I decided NEEDED to re-create it. :D That and maybe the fact that I was STILL thinking burger, burger, burger ;). It doesn’t look as pretty, but, it was pretty tasty.
96% Lean Ground Beef Burger sprinkled with garlic salt & Black Pepper
Light Cheddar
Heirloom Tomato Slice
Romaine
For my TWO CUPS of veggies I decided to go for crunchy things I could dip in my delicious homemade ketchup 😀
Grilled Green Beans x’s 2 (sprinkled with a little EVOO, Sea Salt & Black Pepper)
Parmesan Kale Chips ~ It’s been too long!
All together, dinner was 9 points and totally hit the spot.
Ok, I promise, tomorrow I am moving on from burgers…..
Off to finish watching the finale! As much as I LOVE Tenley/Kipton, I think I am kinda rooting for Natalie/David because she is hilarious 😀
Night all!
So many veggies! You go girl! 🙂
Shoot girl! So many veggies!! Great job on the veggie front HEHE
I need to make a batch of kale chips. PRONTO 😉
I never thought of eating cukes for breakfast, great idea!! Your meals look yummy even the burger! I’ve never had kale chips, must give them a try!
veggie-o-rama! 🙂 I LIKE IT!
I see you picked the right team….it was a good show! I’d watch it again, loved the drama! lol
I love Kale chips! Everything looks awesome.
that burger looks absolutely AMAZING. sometimes you just have burger on the brain! every time i see that soup i want it more. i can’t wait to get the ingredients to make it!
I watched the bachelor pad but I really think it’s so dumb.
But I watch it b/c the girl Nikki went to HS with me. She was in the grade below mine but I think we had a computer class together once and probably lunch or something. I didn’t like her then and I don’t like her now! lol. But it was funny to see someone you know on there.
ahhh! great ending to the bachelor pad last night!! i did like tenley, but her personality seems a tad fake sometimes. i was glad the way it turned out! i’m gonna have to get my butt in gear and whip up some homemade ketchup! 🙂 loveeee that tomatoey goodness. hehe.
I love cucumbers! I’ve been known to eat a couple of them in one sitting. I like the pickled, salted, dipped and plain:)
Roasted green beans = AMAZING!!!!
And uh, I have always wanted to try turkey bacon… does it taste like the real thing?
HI Gigi,
I LOVE Turkey Bacon! When you cook it in the microwave it gets really crunchy and crisp. I think it does taste like the real deal and often my husband (who only eats real bacon) can’t even tell that it’s turkey bacon. I do think it has a bit of turkey bacon taste, but, I think you will like it if you love bacon too 🙂
Do tell if you try it and like it. I’d love to hear if my taste buds described it right 🙂
