    Silver - I'm not sure, maybe. I'll just have some days where I want to eat more than usual and I've never known why. I also saw your post about instant messaging. I can't get do that, I stay on this website and check it often though and am more than happy to chat as much as I can on here.

    Megan - where do you get all these recipes? What's the recipe for the turkey nachos? What was the other recipe that I asked you for? I remember you posting it, but I have no idea of where I'd find at in all our pages...lol

    Nevermind, I remembered and I found it - it was for the Indian Chicken Pita. I had a question though, I don't do spicy - what could I substitute for the curry paste?

    I'm not really a big smoker anyway, so it shouldn't be too hard. :) Got my daughter back today. We started out with some tantrums, but she seems to be doing well now.

    What's your schedule with your daughter? Do you have shared parenting?

    I have to laugh at how much I am posting today....I think it's more than I posted almost the entire week last week. I guess I was pre-occupied with more interesting things last week! :smooched:

    I have the biggest loser cookbook (which i love)
    GROUND TURKEY NACHOS
    1 ounce baked tortilla chips (about 20 chips)
    3 ounces Jennie- O-Turkey or extra lean ground turkey( i used the whole thing)
    2Tbsp. canned fatfree refried beans
    1Tbsp. reduced-fat nacho cheese sauce
    2 Tbsp salsa, drained if watery
    1Tbsp fat free sour cream
    1 tsp. minched chives
    Arrange the chips in a medium shallow bowl . Set a small skillet over med-high heat until it is hot , remove and mist with olive oil spray. Set over med-high heat add the turkey( i added ms dash chiptole seasoning to the turkey before cooking it ) Cook breaking into chunks with a wooden spoon, for 3 to 5 minutes or until no longer pink. reduce the heat to low and sitr in the beans. meanwhile spoon the cheese sauce into a microwaveable bowl. microwave on low power n 15 second intervals until its warm. Spoon the turkey mixture evenly over the reserved chips. Drizzle on the cheese sacue , spoon on the salsa and sour cream . Sprinkle on the chives

    Megan - I'm so happy to hear someone has the Biggest Loser Cookbook! I've wanted it for awhile, maybe it'll be my 20lbs lost reward :wink: Do you think the recipe's in it are "kid friendly"?? The nachos sound like something they would like:tongue: I have ALL the Weight Watcher cookbooks from my years of working there but I'm so burnt out and looking for new ideas. Thanks so much for sharing Megan!

    Silver - GOOD JOB on quitting smoking! It's a hard battle but one your daughter will thank you for fighting. I still smoke once & awhile after the kids are FAST asleep but I want to stop it all again:blushing:
