Breakfast Pizza

I had leftover dough from our deep dish pizza night and its been ages since I made a breakfast pizza.  This time it was ham, fresh basil, one egg, 4 ounces of pizza dough and 1 ounce of mozzarella cheese.

I put it in the oven and then tried and tried to get our dog out.  Tony had already left for an early Monday morning meeting and I had no idea how long he would be gone.  I finally said the magic words “want to go for a walk?” and that got him outside.  Before I knew it we were gone 15 minutes and I ran inside thinking I burned the shit out of my breakfast, but I got it just in time.  Whew!  I actually ate it in the car on the way to work.

This pizza comes in at 444 calories, 15 fat, 49 carbs, 4 fiber and 26 protein.  The crust was nice and crunchy.

I ran some errands at lunch – with temps near 100 there is no way in hell that I am working out at lunch.  I went and picked up travel size shampoos, etc. for my quart size bag for the plane tomorrow.  I am not a huge fan of flying, and especially get nervous when I fly alone, but I know it will be fine.

Right by Walgreen’s was a Mexican restaurant I never paid attention to before.  I ended up picking up two chicken tacos for lunch – trust me there is really tasty shredded chicken under all the lettuce!  And they gave me two unphotographed salsas, one red and one green.  I could have licked the red salsa out of the container it was a perfect blend of spicy flavorful.

I also love the fresh squeezed lime over tacos too.  My guess is these two tacos come in at 440 calories, 28 fat, 22 carbs, 4 fiber and 31 protein.

I ended up stopping at a friends house to say hello on my way home.  She’s one of my former co-workers that I actually keep in touch with.  I am horrible about staying in touch with people I used to work with.

So I got home about 30 minutes later than usual.  But dinner was a snap – literally ready in 10 minutes.  I had super thin pork chops, corn on the cob and leftover cole slaw from my office lunch last week.  Since the chops were so thin, they literally cooked in about 4 minutes.

The corn was delicious and I ate about 3/4 of my pork chop and gave the rest to our dog.  In total this plate comes in at 512 calories, 29 fat, 34 carbs, 2 fiber and 21 protein.

So I will pack tonight.  Seriously, Hannah has been packing my clothes since she was about 8 years old so I hope I do okay!  I plan on only having my purse and only a carry-on since I have to switch planes. 

I also have to go through the fridge tonight and freeze any leftovers that are in there because Tony will not touch them while I am gone. 

I’ve let the heat be an excuse not to work out – I haven’t worked out since I think last Thursday.  And I know this week at my Aunt’s house there is going to be lots of food, so I have to really be conscious not to let this be a reason to eat like shit and that I’ll “get back on” next Monday when I am back into my routine.

Heather, I watched this video and totally thought of you!

So today is my Friday – make it a great day!  Anyone else have a short week because of the holiday??
