Food Pics

WW is going well (although I cheated at lunch today) and I have lost several pounds this week. I've stuck with either oatmeal or yogurt for breakfast, lean cuisene or leftover ziti for lunch (except today), and then a healthy WW recipe for dinner. Below are pics from the two WW recipes I tried this week.

Asian Grilled Pork Chops: This WW recipe says to only marinate for 10 minutes, but I did it overnight and it made a huge difference. The marinade consists of lite soy sauce, toasted sesame oil, minced garlic and fresh lime juice. Throw it on the grill and voila! Very delicious!


Baked Ziti: Below is a picture of the WW Baked Ziti. It was pretty good and made alot. Each serving has 5 points (I think). I will try and work on arranging my blog so you can click on the left to view actual recipes rather than me including them in the blog. This recipe called for lean ground beef, but I used lean ground turkey instead. I would not recommend that you make this if you don't like herbs. Since it contains almost no fat, the recipe calls for oregano, rosemary, and thyme to give it flavor. I will definitely chop the dried herbs next time...sticks of rosemary erk me. Daniel was very happy with this dish and we've been eating on it all week. Served with salad and 1 slice whole wheat toast.

It's only morning, and now I'm starving. I didn't realize WW had recipes on their site.

Hey Susan -- I'm assuming this is you, right? I am failing miserably at my WWing, so maybe if I start reading your blog and doing your recipes I'll behave myself?! Glad you're doing so well! Thank you for sharing your recipes and motivation!
