It’s been so cold in our office the last few days, I don’t mind having soup for lunch!  I brought in two cups of my South Beach Taco Soup. Lunch is 374 calories, 14 fat, 31 protein, 30 carbs and 8 fiber. I ended up bringing the rest of the leftovers for my co-workers husband – he apparently likes my food!  I am supposed to...

When I was putting my breakfast and lunch together this morning, I just couldn’t imagine having eggs again, so I made a sandwich!  Note to self: coffee and a sandwich do not go well together! Did you have a parent or grand parent that would order a coffee at a fast food restaurant with their burger?  My Grammy definitely did and I think Tony’s mom...

OMG, dinner was amazing.  The service, the food, the ambiance – well, it was a quiet Thursday night, but we got a booth, which I love – I’ve always hated tables in the middle of the dining room – I’ve learned that once I go to a restaurant, what the best tables are, and then request them the next time we go. It was dimly...

I don’t know what I was smoking when I picked this package up – I had a recollection that these were low cal AND low fat! So what I thought was going to be a low cal lunch turned out to be: 512 calories 20 fat 40 protein 43 carbs (!) 12 fiber I always forget how many carbs are in spaghetti squash – so...

I was lucky that Tony didn’t finish all of his steak last night, so I decided to make an egg/steak/cheese wrap.  I only used 1/2 ounce of cheese, but I sprinkled it over the whole wrap and nuked it for about 30 seconds, so every bite was cheezy! 😀 Breakfast comes in at 455 calories, 24 fat, 50 protein (!), 20 carbs and 14 grams...

Note to Self:  If you want to work out in the morning before work, you need to go to bed before midnight! But I am working out at lunch today come hell or high water! I confessed to Tony this morning that I kind of cheated – I had these low carb wraps in the fridge and I was dying for an egg sammie!  Although,...

I got the broccoli recipe from www.kalynskitchen.blogspot.com – so many great low glycemic recipes there!   Since it was just me and Tony, I halved the recipe. 3 cups (8 ounces) broccoli 1 ounce shredded swiss cheese 3 tablespoons light mayo 1/2 tbsp. lemon juice 1/4 tsp. Dijon mustard black pepper to taste 3 tablespoons Parmesan cheese 1 ounce shredded cheddar I cooked my broccoli in...

I won’t be able to post until my lunch break, its one of those days!  Be sure to come back though for my zucchini ham and cheese breakfast  and the recipe for my Thai Curry Coconut Shrimp Soup with Cilantro!

I had on the menu Creole Fried Fish with Parmesan Zucchini coins – only one problem – I opened up the fish package and it STANK to high heaven!  I’m pissed because I bought it fresh on Friday, and today was the sell by date!   Tony was hungry and we still had to drop off one of our cars for service, so the only thing...

I love cooking beef to rare, because then the leftovers don’t get overcooked!  I heated up 3 ounces of the beef from last night, and made a big salad – I used a tablespoon of my cucumber dressing and a tablespoon of Annie’s goddess dressing – great combo! On the side was a cup of roasted red pepper soup – with lots of dashes of...
