Eggsellent Eats!

April 4, 2010 by DanicasDaily 11 Comments

Happy Easter All!  Today I made sure I used up some of our Easter Eggs by whipping up Deviled Eggs and a Healthier Potato Salad.  You know your weekend is Eggsellent (you know I had to use that at least once!) when The Husband treats you to a FREE Starbuck’s TWICE in one weekend 😀

I indulged a little this morning with a Grande FF Chai Tea Latte (4 pts).

I figured I’d use up some of hard boiled eggs and whipped up a quick snack of Deviled Eggs for The Husband and I.  I like using half mayo and half greek yogurt in recipes that call for mayo.  You get all the flavor with less fat and more protein.

4 Hard Boiled Eggs, halved

1 Tbsp Low Fat Mayo

1 Tbsp Fat Free Greek Yogurt

1 tsp dijon mustard

Sea salt & Black Pepper to Taste

Paprika Sprinkles

Simply half the eggs and remove the yolks. Combine the yolks with everything through the Black Pepper.  Mix and “stuff” your egg shells. Sprinkle with paprika. 1 half = 1 pt.

After making our Easter Cupcake deliveries to The Husband’s family, I whipped up BLTA’s!

2 slices TJ’s FF Multi-Grain Bread

2 Tbsp TJ’s Avocado’s Number Guacamole!

4 slices Center Cut Bacon

BIG tomato slices

Mixed Greens

Plus 1/2 an orange (The Husband stole 1/2 of mine even though he said he didn’t want an orange) :)  My entire lunch came in at 6 points ~ AWESOME!

This afternoon I FINALLY mastered my Healthy Tiramisu Cupcakes!!!  Homemade Espresso Soaked Vanilla Cake, creamy whipped middle INSIDE the cupcake and a deliciously light cream cheese frosting with dark chocolate shavings.

It really does look as good as it tastes (I ate the whole thing!)!  I LOVE the “surprise”in the middle!  RECIPE and STATS coming soon….believe it or not, they are EASY to make 🙂

I also finally played around with my Pot Sticker wrappers making some Butternut Squash Pot Stickers.  More on these tomorrow with the recipe as I am having them for lunch.

We had The Husband’s Mom over for Easter dinner.  I pulled out the Apple Wood Smoked Bacon Pork Loin I picked up at Sam’s Club. It’s so easy to make ~ simply wrap it in foil and bake for 20-30 minutes per pound.

4 oz = 4 points for a BACON pork Loin – YUM!

I made sure I got my 4 ounces too!  It was really good – it’s sweet, smoky and full of BACON flavor.  I LOVED the crunchy bacon top.

I used up more eggs and made my Healthier Potato Salad.  1/2 c = 2 pts.

Asparagus sprinkled with garlic salt, pepper and a little butter!

Speaking of BACON ~ In case you all missed it the first time around, Recipe Lion is featuring my Cheesy Bean & Bacon Stuffed Peppers today ~ they are delish!

Off to relax before the week starts…The weekends totally NEED to be longer. 🙂

Night all!
