    Mediterranean Chicken And Orzo

    This is one of my favorite dishes I got this from Prevention magazine's Flat Belly Diet cookbook.. I love it, it's healthy, contains MUFA's (monounsaturated fatty acids) and boy does it taste great..... It's also quick and easy to make, and my family eats it lol

    First of all, I apologize for not being on here last week, but I didn't even know this existed until today.

    Second of all, put me down for an extra 5 miles this week and I'll try my best to do more.

    challenge done! I'm going to get on my bike tonight. Great job guys! Oh yeah, put me down for 5 extra miles this week. I'm doing doubles plus the challenge, so I'm a wee bit tired, but I will definitely do 5 extra miles this week! Let's do this!

    I got 5 miles in for you today!
    I did my regular 3 miles, then added a mile for yesterday on the eliptical, and a mile for today on the STAIRMASTER!!!
    These hotel gyms occasionally have a variety! I also did the swimmer's arm thing with weights :)
    I'm in Richmond and Ashland, VA for the next few days.

    I think I can manage 3 miles/day (minus 3 miles in case something comes up one day), so if my math is correct that's 15 miles. If more is needed by the end of the week I bet I could kick in a few more.

    I thought I read upthread that miles completed on an elliptical or bike count toward the 100 miles as well. Can anyone let me know if this is the case?

    I found a recipe from "The Diabetic Chef", Chris Smith, that I'm dying to try this week. It's low carb, and uses just the vegetables that my parents garden in bursting with at the moment.

    Ingredients:
    2 medium zucchini
    2 medium yellow squash
    1 Tbsp butter
    1/4 tsp salt
    1/4 tsp pepper
    nonstick cooking spray
    1 1/2 lb large shrimp deveined and w/out shells
    1 lemon
    2 Tbsp chopped parsley

    Trim the end of both the zucchini and yellow squash. Cut the vegetables into long narrow strips. In a large pan, melt the butter over medium-high heat. Add the vegetables. Toss until tender (3-5 minutes). Season with salt and pepper. Spray a pan with nonstick cooking spray and heat it over medium heat. Add the shrimp and cook until done, (3-4 minutes). Squeeze the juice of the lemon into the pan and toss until all the shrimp are coated. Serve the shrimp on top of the veggies and garnish with the chopped parsley.

    Makes:
    6 servings of 1/2cup shrimp with 1/3 cup vegetable
