We had a good week last week watching our calories. Chef D lost another 4 lbs. giving him about a 20 lb. weight loss since January 4. I lost 2 more lbs. and am down about 14 lbs. :) It seems that counting calories is helping so I will continue to try to choose dinner meals that are 500 calories or less. I will try to note what the calorie count is for each of the menus posted. This week's menu will be using up some of the frozen meat/fish in the freezer.Monday: Shrimp and Pasta (411 calories -- with a few adjustments from this recipe)
Tuesday: Grilled Spicy Tex-Mex Chicken (136 calories/4 ounces) with miniature ravioli (135 calories) with sauce (20 calories) and a side of steamed broccoli (25 calories)
Apprehension-Free Wednesday: Dinner served at church will be roast beef, mashed potatoes, green beans, salad and dessert.
Thursday: Fish Tacos (290 calories each) with salsa and gaucamole
Friday: Scrapbooking Crop for the girls, Boys' Night Out for the boys.
Saturday: No sous-chef Saturday this week because we will be attending a wedding and reception this afternoon
Hospitality Sunday: TBD.
