Day 40, February 9th, 2012 Grilled Rosemary Lemon Chicken and Roasted Cauliflower

I actually cooked this night!  I've had a pretty busy week this week.  I cooked dinner and scarfed it down and then headed to go see a movie with one of my friends.  The movie was a sneak preview of a movie coming out in March.  It's called October Baby.  I highly recommend seeing this movie when it comes out in March.  It was soooo good!  You will cry!  But a good cry!
Here's a link to see a trailer:  October Baby

Day 38, February 8th, 2012 Chipotle

We decided last minute to drive all the way over to Plano for a rally one of the presidential candidates was having this night.  Because of that we didn't have time for dinner.  We decided after the rally to go by Chipotle and have a salad.  In the past I would have never done that because I love to get chips with my bowl and eat it like a dip.  But this night I was proud of myself.  I got a salad, brown rice, black beans, and no cheese or sour cream!  That's definitely a first for me!  I didn't take a picture because I didn't want to make you jealous!

Day 38, February 7th, 2012 Salad and Baked Potato with 2 new recipes!

We had a life group social tonight.  We decided to stick with the healthy theme and had a baked potato and salad bar.  Everyone brought different food items and I think it turned out great.  I had a baked potato with low fat sour cream, a tiny bit of cheese, and a little bit of margarine.  I also had a salad with black bean corn salsa and cilantro-lime ranch dressing.
Here are the recipes for the dressing and salsa I made:
Cilantro Lime Ranch Dressing - I used low fat mayo and it turned out great.
Black Bean and Corn Salad 

Day 37, February 6th, 2012 Brisket

We had a dinner meeting tonight and so we were pleasantly surprised with dinner. We had brisket, baked beans, and potatoes. No picture again. We are having a social at life group tomorrow night so I will try to remember the picture!

Day 36, February 5th, 2012 NY Strip Steak

We had dinner over at Poppy & GiGi's tonight. They know we are trying to eat healthy so the kept that in mind. Dinner was great. We had NY Strip steaks with homemade steak fries and Lima beans. I forgot to take a picture.

Day 35, February 4th, 2012 Spiced Chipotle Honey Chicken with Sweet Potatoes

This is a repeat of Day 20 except I didn't bake it but instead I cooked it in the crockpot.  I like the baked version better which is what the recipe says to do.  I also made it too spicy this time.  We had to rinse the potatoes off!  Those chipotle chili's are hot hot hot!!

E ate peas and a pb&j sandwich.  It was too spicy for his little tongue.
