    I almost forgot my recipe!! My kids love these. I usually have to double the recipe. Of course, we are a family of 6.


    Buffalo Chicken Rolls

    makes 12

    12 egg roll wrappers (roughly 4 square inches)

    1 cup cooked and shredded chicken (6 ounces)

    1/2- 2/3 cup Frank’s Red Hot Sauce

    1 cup crumbled blue cheese (4 ounces)

    1 cup broccoli slaw or cole slaw (dry)

    Small bowl of water

    Nonstick cooking spray

    Blue cheese dressing, for serving

    Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Lay egg roll wrappers on a clean work surface. In a small bowl, stir chicken* (see note below) and hot sauce until well coated, using more or less sauce depending on your spice preference. The meat should be moist with sauce.

    Begin by placing one tablespoon of the broccoli slaw on the diagonal of the bottom right corner of one of the wrappers. Next, place 2 tablespoons of shredded spicy chicken evenly on top of the slaw. Spoon 1 tablespoon of the blue cheese crumbles over the chicken. Do not overfill.

    To fold: Fold the bottom right corner over the stuffing mixture so that it covers it completely, with the tip of the corner now pointing to the center of the egg roll wrapper. Fold in the bottom left corner, followed by the right, so that you now have formed an envelope. Roll the wrap upward one time, leaving the top left corner open. Wet your index finger in the small bowl of water and press to moisten the top left corner. Now fold that down on top of the filled roll, sealing it like you would an envelope.

    Repeat with remaining rolls.

    Place the rolls on a wire rack set on top of a cookie sheet (or just on a greased cookie sheet) coated with nonstick cooking spray. Spritz each roll evenly with nonstick cooking spray. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the rolls crisp and turn a light golden brown.

    *Note: To make the chicken, place 1/2 lb of uncooked chicken breast in a small pot and fill with enough water just to cover it. Bring to a boil on your stovetop, reduce the heat slightly, then simmer for about 12 minutes, or until cooked through. Drain and let cool before shredding with two forks, pulling against the grain of the meat.

    SOOOO...I got a LOT of working out in today, but I still ate horribly...I mean I was under my calorie goal, but OVER all my other goals (like sugar, carbs, etc.) Tomorrow is gonna be a SUPER SUPER health day! LOL

    So here it is :

    64 ounces of water : CHECK

    Under Calorie goal : CHECK

    Complete Food diary : CHECK

    4 miles complete today, that makes my total miles for the week : 8 (only 2 more miles to my goal of 10)

    50 Globe Jumps : CHECK

    100 Jumping Jacks : CHECK

    100 Stair Climbs : CHECK

    So yeah, exercise wise, GOOD, food wise, BAD! Even though I was under my calorie goal, I made poor food choices today, and to be honest, have made poor food choices most of the week. I wont be surprised to have a low weight loss number for this week... :'(

    Mission Accomplished
    3.1 Miles Done

    I am so very proud of our team! I needed to hear that. Thank you Cap for the update. I stepped on the scale this morning and it's UP 1/2 a pound. I don't know what is up with that. I am moving and doing more than I ever have and I'm flooding my body with water. It's got to start going down soon, right? I'm not slacking! Honestly, you should see the sweat :-)

    Dont let it get to you too much, it could very well be water retention or muscle being buit. Did you weigh yourself in the morning or in the afternoon ? If you didnt weigh yourself first thing in the morning, then the numbers are probably wrong...so dont let it get to you. Also, if it is that TOM, it could be that too!! So keep your head high and keep pushing on, you will see results! :)

I wish that all of you guys could have been there with me, that would have made it the best! I did 4 classes, Zumba, Hip Hop, Intense Cardio drills and Power Yoga, and ended up burning over 2,000 calories in the classes!! AWESOME!!!

    So I totally COULD NOT eat back all of those calories today, HAHA! That was like over 3,000 calories to eat...so yeah...there was NO WAY..but I did eat somewhat healthy and tried to eat back as many as possible... :P

    Oh and I dont know why...but I completed my food journal...its just not coming up that it is complete for me....HMMM...it did say that if every day were like today I would weigh 134 pounds in 5 week!! HOW awesome is that ? I wish that i could make every day like today...maybe every Saturday at least ?

    Well guys, I am BEAT and I gotta get up to work in our Church Nursery tomorrow, so I am gonna get ready to head to bed and get some sleep, believe me I AM WORN THE HECK OUT! LOL - it was a LOOOONGGG day for me, I am ready for a great nights rest!!! Cannot wait to weigh in tomorrow...hopefully it is something good.... :)
