What's on your lunch menu for today? I'm thinking a chopped veggie salad and a fage yogurt

    Loaded "Refried Beans" (sweet potato and black bean mash with a garlic-chive greek yogurt and onion-avacado-cilantro-lemon dressing) It's super yummy, full of flavor and nutrition and incredibly filling for very few calories. I adapted it from a few different recepies gone wrong but fell in love with it.

    I am out of food in my house right now, so lunch was plain and simple. Yogurt and Bread with Jelly...Not too appetizing yet good for bumping up calories. BUT tonight I am looking forward to Pasta Primavera with lots of yummy veggies on top!!

    Had a sun dried tomato wrap wit turkey, swiss, veggies and ranch dressing. I plugged all the ingredients in and end up over 600 calories!!!! That's way too much on 1200 cals per day. Wasn't worth it and I certainly won't do that again!

    For lunch I had.....a grilled chicken breast sandwich with swiss cheese, sliced tomato and bacon...toasted bread....then I had 5 potato chips....then I had A TURTLE SUNDAE WITH walnuts in syrup, hot fudge sauce, whipped cream and a cherry on top...and it was very delicious...the only reason why I did not get the butterscotch sauce was because I do not like butterscotch ....but it would have been up there this was the first true splurge in 1 week besides the other day when I ate 2 magnum caramel bars regular sized.
