Weekends are hard for us eaters....totally different schedule, possible parties at night or bumming around the house with the pantry and refrigerator screaming your name. Always good to have a plan so here is a day in the life of the "Everyday Cook" weekend style.
Breakfast:
Breakfast burrito with 1 slice of bacon, egg beaters scrambled eggs (you can have 1/2 cup of egg beaters for 1 point), less than 1/4 cup shredded cheese, salsa and "La Banderita Low Carb Low Fat" wheat tortilla. Points= 4
Mid morning snack:
Just depends on what we have but try to limit it to a 2-3 point snack
Lunch:
Turkey sandwich on a sandwich thin with lettuce, tomato, cucumber and a sprinkle of oregano. I left off the cheese because with all these other wonderful flavors, you can live without.
Weight Watchers yogurt and a pre-portioned bag of baked chips. Points: 5
If needed: afternoon snack. Maybe a piece of fruit or 1/2 cup of cottage cheese. 2 points
Dinner:
Have some friends over and grill out!
Make Gingered Pork Skewers with grilled okra. 4 oz of pork per person, lots of veggies and with the pineapple, your skewers will be around 5 points. To grill okra: put about 1 t of oil on the okra, sprinkle with salt and pepper and skewer a bunch of them together. Put on the grill at the same time as the pork skewers and turn once. Delicious! Enjoy an ice cold light beer for a total dinner of 8 points!
Point total for the day: 22 points and you literally ate all day!!
