    Tonight I'm having Dinner #1 (I only have two dinners I alternate between.)

    -Two boneless skinless chicken tenderloins spiced with Montreal Chicken seasoning, pan-fried with Pam spray
    -Leafy green salad with 6 grape tomatoes and 2 tablespoons of some lite dressing or other. Probably one of the Walden Farms no-carb dressings. I love those. Probably will use the Creamy Bacon one.

    Sometimes I chop up the chicken and toss it with the salad, sometimes I eat them separately. Depends on my mood.

    Total calories: just under 200
    Protein: 32g
    Fat: 5g
    Carbs: 6g

    That's awesome! Great source of protein and low in calories! I've never used Montreal seasoning! I'm saving this so I can give it a go! Sounds tasty! Thanks :)

    Tonight is an "all hands for themselves" night since it's too stupid hot to do too much. I'm having 2 quarter pound lean turkey burgers with a slice of sharp cheddar and 2 slices of Steady Eddie bread and a large romaine salad with red cabbage, carrots, and a couple tablespoons of ranch.

    Hamburgers made with the leanest beef I could find (7%) on a sandwich thin, onion, tomato, lc cheese and bbq sauce. Also had 1/2 cup of potato salad and 1 cup of pinto chili beans. This was a late lunch early dinner feast. Yum!!!

    Tonight I had diet coke chicken, corn, and asparagus.

    If you haven't heard of diet coke chicken, believe me when I say it's an amazing alternative to BBQ sauce.

    Pineapple Pork Chops

    6-8 butterfly cut chops
    1 cans pineapple chunks (save juice)
    1 green bell pepper
    1 white onion chunked
    1/4 c ketchup
    1/4 c brown sugar
    1 TB vinegar

    Brown chops, place in 9x13 sprayed pan. Mix ketchup, sugar, vinegar and pineapple juice together. Sautee onion, pineapple
    and green pepper. Add mixture to pan and bring to boil. Pour over chops, cover with foil, bake 11/2 hrs on 350. Serve over rice.

    (The rice really kills the calories on this one, but it is so stinking good!)

    Lemon Chicken Breasts (from http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/ina-garten/lemon-chicken-breasts-recipe/index.html )

    Ingredients
    1/4 cup good olive oil
    3 tablespoons minced garlic (9 cloves)
    1/3 cup dry white wine
    1 tablespoon grated lemon zest (2 lemons)
    2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
    1 1/2 teaspoons dried oregano
    1 teaspoon minced fresh thyme leaves
    Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
    4 boneless chicken breasts, skin on (6 to 8 ounces each)
    1 lemon

    Directions
    Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.

    Warm the olive oil in a small saucepan over medium-low heat, add the garlic, and cook for just 1 minute but don't allow the garlic to turn brown. Off the heat, add the white wine, lemon zest, lemon juice, oregano, thyme, and 1 teaspoon salt and pour into a 9 by 12-inch baking dish.

    Pat the chicken breasts dry and place them skin side up over the sauce. Brush the chicken breasts with olive oil and sprinkle them liberally with salt and pepper. Cut the lemon in 8 wedges and tuck it among the pieces of chicken.

    Bake for 30 to 40 minutes, depending on the size of the chicken breasts, until the chicken is done and the skin is lightly browned. If the chicken isn't browned enough, put it under the broiler for 2 minutes. Cover the pan tightly with aluminum foil and allow to rest for 10 minutes. Sprinkle with salt and serve hot with the pan juices.

    + Spinach fetuccini and green peas.

    Tonight I just made sliced sirlion tips, cooked medium, with costco frozen normandy blend veggies, one diced onion, dash salt and pepper, with 3tbsp teryaki sauce and 2.5 tbsp tonkatsu sauce, and 1 tbsp soy sauce. I pan - seared the steak in butter flavored 0 cal cooking spray, and steamed the veggies, died the meat, and "stirfried" it together. About 250/serving. Also had Oreo Ice cream sandwhiches for dessert- 200/sandwhich. Yum!
    **Diced the meat*** not died LOL.
