Dinner last night was great. You just can't beat Mahi Mahi!! Hubby put some fresh ginger, S&P, Italian seasoning, sesame oil and sesame seeds on it and then put it on the grill. Great flavor! We had a green salad with all the goodies in it and french fries. Very satisfying. Not sure about tonight yet--still to early and I am only on my second cup of coffee. Happy Monday!

Welcome, Linda!
You're right. That does sound simple and healthy. I'll have to try it one night. Thanks for the idea.
LOL did you know that corn partners with the liver and helps aid in lowering cholesterol? Another good reason to down that cornbread! And Beans have been proven to fight agains cancer! See, I am helping you out.... I have also been known to prove why Cake is healthy enough to eat for breakfast... so I don't know if I am a good spokesperson for this...
If you would like a defense for cake for breakfast:
Cake contains Eggs (protien), Milk in the icing (dairy), Flour... you get a grain... , if is carrot cake you get a plus for the veggies, Chocolate for the added heart benefit....
So... if I add a couple of berries on top of the carrot cake, it becomes a well balanced breakfast? Yeah!
Well, I am thinking something chicken.... I have tons more zucchini....So this is what I am thinking of making tonight:
WW Spiced Chicken with Spinach and Zucchini for 4.5 Pts Ingredients
1 tbs mustard, (mustard powder)
1 tbs ground cumin
1 tbs ground coriander seed
560 g skinless chicken breast
3 whole zucchini, cut lengthways into 4 slices
500 g frozen spinach, excess liquid removed
250 g Weight Watchers Plain Cottage Cheese
2 clove garlic, crushed
1 medium lemon, cut into wedges
Instructions
Combine mustard and spices in a small bowl. Rub over chicken and turn to coat other side. Stand for 10 minutes.
Heat a large char-grill pan over high heat. Spray chicken with oil. Grill for 4 minutes each side or until brown and cooked through, adding zucchini to grill during last 5 minutes of cooking.
Meanwhile, combine spinach, cottage cheese and garlic in a medium saucepan. Stir over medium heat until hot. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
Spoon spinach onto serving plates. Top with zucchini. Slice chicken diagonally into 2cm-thick pieces and arrange on plate. Serve with a lemon wedge.
I have petite boneless sirloins defrosting for tonight. I'll probably make (frozen) creamed spinach on the side and some type of rice.
