    Good morning.

    Breakfast: Oatmeal and a cup of tea

    Snack: Dannon Activia yogurt

    Lunch: Smart Ones Ravioli meal and an orange

    Snack: Apple

    Dinner: Not sure yet. I took out pork chops but I probably won't eat those. My husband and son like them a different way then I do. I will probably eat the sides that I make and leave out the pork chop. Anyone have any good pork chop recipes?

    Hi Caliecat,

    We have lots of snow here in UK (they are saying it's our worst winter in 30 years) although it's starting to thaw now...don't think I could post enough to you to build a snowman lol !

    What are flax muffins? I have never heard of them and wonder if they are called something different over here??

    I had a birthday party at our house last night and the birthday boy requested "bar food". I knew he loved wings so that was the main dish, I baked the wings and had several warm pots with various sauces in them like 'hot sauce' and 'garlic Parmesan', teriyaki etc so that party guests could get a plate of wings then toss them with the sauce they liked the best (that way I didn't make to many of one kind and not enough of another!) I also made up some frozen store bought appetizers.

    For the only food item that wasn't HORRIBLE for us, I plugged in our little deep fryer and used canola oil. I am a little cheap, so I bought the cheapest version of yams at the store ($1.29 a pound). After washing them I used a heavy knife to (with the skins on) cut each potato length wise into slabs about 1/4 inch or less thick. Then I turned half onto the flat side and cut lengthwise again to make the fries 1/4 inch thick (or less) not worrying about the little pieces or sides etc.. I fired a yam's worth of fries at a time and then sprinkled them with a little salt and served them with lite ranch dressing for dipping. YUM YUM YUM!!!

    To get the timing right I just tasted a little of a fry as they went - most of my guests like them more on the done side. All my guests loved them - they were the second favorite to the wings!

    EDITED TO ADD EGG PLANT FRIES INFO!

    I am still working on the egg plant fries but they work best if you bread them before you deep fry them. I've julienned them, soaked them in a little water for about 5 minutes then dried them on paper towels. Dip in a batter (Japanese tempura) then drop into the deep fryer (or a pan of HOT oil). When they're crisp, serve with a dipping sauce of low-fat mayo with some horse radish in it.

    Lunch: pepper turkey, provolone cheese, lettuce, light mayo, on a 7 grain deli flat, baby carrots

    Dinner: homemade sloppy joe on a deli flat, baked fries, side salad with 1 tbs. Garlic Expressions dressing (amazing!)

    Snack: Going to attempt my first homemade smoothie: 1 c. frozen strawberries, 1/2 c. Oikos greek yogurt, a splash of orange mango juice, some honey if it needs it. I'm excited about this one! Just wish I had some flax seed or something to add...

    What does flax seed taste like? If you can even taste it..I have been thinking about buying some for awhile to add to yogurt and such. What other things can you add it to?

    I use flax seed oil on my salads with balsamic vinegar. The oil tastes odd but you start to love it after awhile! You won't notice it on a salad - just maybe a nutty flavor! The oil doesn't last long so I only keep a few oz. made up at a time, in the refrigerator at work. about 2/3 vinegar and 1/3 oil with a little squirt of mustard to help it mix. My co-workers LOVE it and always beg to use it :love:

    Today's meals:

    Breakfast - 1/2 cup cottage 2% cottage cheese with 1/4 cup wild blue berries and a cup of hot green chai, no milk.

    snack - small apple

    Lunch - Chicken soup - 1 cup low fat home made chicken broth, 3 oz. roasted chicken, 3 roasted garlic cloves and Iced green chai

    Dinner - Chicken melt made with two slices of double fiber bread, two slices of swiss cheese, 3 oz. roasted chicken, 1 TB chipoltle sauce, grilled with olive oil (rather than buttering the bread). Glass of red wine.

    last Snack - backed yam w/ molly mcbutter and cinnamon and a glass of red wine!
