    Going to try a new recipe I've been cooking up in my head...

    Boneless, skinless chicken breast with a creamy roasted corn salsa sauce!

    Brown a chicken breast and set aside, sautee some onion and canned corn, add some rotel, a tablespoon or so of taco seasoning and a bit of low fat sour cream and simmer until combined and add the cooked chicken breast and simmer covered for a few minutes.

    I'll probably eat it with a side of black beans to come out under 400 cals for the whole meal.

    You will so love this (not breaded, pan seared) little miracle whip & sweet relish tartar. YUMMO. Make sure you have black beans and some steamed veggies.

    2.7oz grilled steak made into a sandwich with lettuce, cucumbers, sliced tomato, fat-free mayo, encased within Thomas 110 calorie "Everything" bagel thins. And 2 cups of water to wash it down. I'm so full! :drinker:

    I've never made them before (I'm doing an "all new recipe" week to get us out of our "usual favourites" rut!)

    I picked the recipe up from my favourite recipe website here:
    http://www.healthyfood.co.nz/recipes/2010/january/thai-style-fish-cakes

    It looks fairly straight-forward, although next time I might replace the instant mash with proper mashed potatos if it doesn't taste nice this time around and maybe adding some garlic.

    I made potato soup. Not the healthiest but it tastes great and has bacon in it.
