Food Talk And Fabulous Finds - What did you have for dinner? 9/29

Tonight I am making Chicken Fajitas. Grilled chicken, peppers, some seasoning, flour tortilla (just 1, ugh.), and light sour cream. I will also have cantelope as dessert.

What about you?

It's going to be trout fillets, baked in foil with a tiny bit of olive oil, salt, pepper and lemon slices, served with lightly steamed sugar snap peas and little potatoes for DH and DS, brown rice for me.

Yummy!

I'm making blackened pork chops and for the sides I'm not sure yet, probably mashed potatos for the family and then also grilled veggies for them and me :) I'm thinking squash :D

Yum, they both sound good. I do wish I could have mashed potatoes right now, lol. How is trout? I have never had it.

2 TINY baby potatoes (cut up very small so I feel like I'm eating more!!!) w/ snow peas, red peppers, squash, and onion w/ lots of yummy seasonings. I didn't have enough food in the house for a well thought out meal so I just threw everything I had left into a pan!!! :)

1C whole wheat spaghetti and 1/2C Prego Chunky Garden. Can you tell my husband made dinner? :-)

A homemade asian turkey burger on a whole-grain bun, with cilantro-chili mayo. Alongside it I'm having a big salad with spinach, romaine, grape tomatoes, cucumber, red onion, and a homemade vinaigrette. I haven't decided on dessert yet, but I have both watermelon and red grapefruit in the fridge that need to be finished, so probably one of the two!

I am a big fan of lettuce wraps. I cooked lean pork with non-stick spray, fresh garlic, tons of green onion, soy, and Asian hot sauce. I had a measured portion of rice (75 calories). Divided it all on top of red leaf lettuce with cucumber slices. Less than a tablespoon total of crushed peanuts and 1/8 of an avocado added richness and good fats. Very filling and I really liked it.

I had a few slices of roasted chicken breast, a cup of roasted vegetables (butternut squash, red peppers, onion, zucchini, broccoli), and 1/2 cup brown rice. Strawberries and melon for dessert.

How is trout? I have never had it.

Trout is a mild-tasting, pink-fleshed oily fish, freshwater I think. It's quick and easy to prepare, just wrap in foil and bake or grill it for 15 minutes or so. I like my fish to be not-too-fishy-tasting :D, and trout fits the bill.
