    OH that looks so YUMMY!!! I am going to have to buy this stuff too... Thank goodness my son isn't a picky eater (except when it comes to cooking with mushroom soup :huh: ) and loves all veggies. Let me know how it turns out :tongue: :flowerforyou:

    Yeah, it was. My boyfriend got wasted with a friend of ours because it was his night off and he becomes like a giant 5 year old when he drinks and he stole my side of the bed. I never realized how different it feels to sleep (or not sleep as the case maybe) on the other side...

    PLEASE post the recipe. It sounds delicious. I'm thinking about trying a tandoori chicken recipe.

    Here's the recipe, ladies!!!! I had to substitue some things and it still turned out great!

    Sweet Corn and Cheddar Souffles

    Serves 6 (THEY LIE!! I only got 4 out of it!:wink: )
    Prep Time: 30 min Total Time: 50 min

    4-6 ramekins
    1 tbsp unsalted butter (I used 0 cal cooking spray)
    1 1/2 tbsp bread crumbs
    2 tbsp olive oil
    4 scallions, thinly sliced (I used a bit of regular chopped onion)
    3 tbsp all purpose flour
    1 c lowfat milk (used fat free skim)
    4 large eggs, separated
    1/3 c fresh corn kernels from 1 cob (I used canned)
    1/4 c grated sharp white cheddar (used regular sharp cheddar)
    1/4 tsp of salt (salt to taste at the end, it'll need it if you're a salt addict like me!!)
    Pinch of cayenne
    Pinch of fresh ground pepper
    1/4 tsp cream of tartar
    2 tsp chopped chives

    Preheat oven to 375. Grease six 6 oz ramekins with butter. Divide bread crumbs among ramekins, turn to coat, and gently shake off excess. Place on rimmed baking sheet and set aside.

    Heat oil in medium saucepan over medium-low heat. Toss in scallions and sautee for 2 min or until soft. Add flour, stirring constantly for 3 min. Add milk and raise heat to medium high-do not boil. Whisk for 4 min or until the mixture thickens slightly; remove from heat. (Don't mix it constantly here or it'll take forever to thicken)

    Lightly beat egg yolks in a large bowl. Stir in a spoonful of the hot milk mixture, then pour in the rest. Stir in the corn, cheese, salt, cayenne, and black pepper and set aside.

    In a small bowl, beat egg whites and cream of tartar until they form peaks. Fold 1/3 of the egg whites into the corn mixture. Add remaining egg whites; mix gently (a few streaks of white should remain). Divide among ramekins and bake for 18-20 minutes or until tops are PUFFED and GOLDEN BROWN. Sprinkle with chopped chives and serve immediately.

    ENJOY!!!!!!! :love:

    i just realized tommorow is thursday! if anyone has any suggestions, throw them out there and whoever is on first tommorow and notices that there isn't a thread should post one!

    i really like exercise challenges

    in the crazy canucks group we just challenged each other to do as much exercise as we could that week...and then log in every day and report, so there was a winner. i did really well on that...i think i may be competetive!!

    for daily challenges...i have no ideas, you guys are better at that than me, unless you want to repeat the ones we just did?

    also. my new food today was bbq chicken..cause i never bbq chicken. i cheated...cause really, i eat chicken all the time, but not off the bbq! yay!:happy:

    lately i have been coming on when no one else is here, boo!

    anyway, i am taking this really seriously now, no more off the wagon, it is way too risky. i followed hasiangirls advice and made myself a calendar with my goal on it...rather mini goals.

    and i know weigh in is tommorow, so I am gonna work out!!! run for 15 minutes on the treadmill and i will see you ladies on here tommorow!

    Hey there, happy birthday Chrissy! My new food today was Paan bread. It's a mediteranean flatbread I found in the deli department at the store. Had it with artichoke and spinach dip. Yummmity yum yum! I did pick up a papaya to have (have never had a real one), but am full now after dinner. We had steak and twice baked potato and corn on the cob. And I found a no sugar added lowfat chocolate milk. Double yummmmm....

    I'd like to join if that's ok with you ladies. I just came back to MFP after a long break (about 6 mo) and now I'm looking for a fun group to get me back into being motivated.
