Going to saute some fresh prawns in garlic butter .... it is over 100 degrees here, which is highly unusual so I don't have much of an appetite

Sandy so glad you had a great trip and stayed on plan.

Barbecue Chicken for a hot night...
I feel you; it's 100 or so here today with the heat index. Too hot to cook much.
Tonight I'm taking part of the rotisserie chicken I bought today and re-heating it with Scott's Barbecue Sauce - No carbs, friends! And I'm having a salad - mixed greens, cucumber, red onion with ranch dressing. I'm microwaving a steamer thingey of baby veggies, but I'll pick out the carrots and give them to my German Shepherd, Puddin'. She loves veggies. I bought these frozen veggies before I started Atkins, and they're taking up space in my small freezer. I guess I should rinse them off too after I cook them - those 7 net grams of carbs per serving come from somewhere. (the carrots and the fake butter sauce probably) I'll rinse them and put real butter on them instead. And that's it for tonight! |
grilling burgers and steaming spinach to add on top with some blue cheese sauce
|
That sounds delicious...another great burger idea!
|
Chicken and greenbeans again ladies.
Sandy I also have a German Shepherd, he is like one of our kids. |
Nothing wrong with chicken and green beans!
I love my German Shepherd. Puddin' is 6 years old and although she's the typical very smart, serious about her "job," loyal GS, Puddin' is such a clown! She makes me laugh all the time. If you're reading this post and thinking of a dog for you and your family, please consider adoption. There are German Shepherd Rescue organizations near you with AMAZING pets who need loving forever homes. And consider adopting an adult...no annoying puppy obnoxiousness. (I volunteer with Noble Shepherd Rescue) www.nobleshepherdrescue.com:angel: |
Tonight will be a basic chili ..... used to eat a lot of beans and have not had any for a long time ... they are my next addition on the ladder so I am hoping that it goes well and I continue with weight loss. I have missed using beans in many dishes.
I have two wonderful dogs, a Great Dane who I adore and an English Springer Spaniel who is also adorable but oh she knows how to get to me!! |
Shells, you're doing so well. Congratulations! You're below 200 and working the ladder! My mini-goal right now is 210, next is 200. I love chili too; maybe by the time it's really cold chili weather in the South, I'll be ready to cook and eat some beans! :carrot:

Beef and Asparagus Stir-Fry
Tonight I'm stir -frying some Angus beef stir-fry strips and baby asparagus in olive oil with onion. I wish I had a soy sauce that is induction friendly, but I don't. I'm going to add a dash of red pepper flakes for a little zing.
And I'll have a salad - mixed greens, cucumbers, scallions, parmesan cheese with ranch dressing. |
Its over 90 degrees here but I was craving chili ..... it was far to hot to heat up the kitchen !!
|
When you want it, you want it!
I know what you mean, Shells. I bought a big roast yesterday; I really want pot roast, but didn't want to cook it 'cause it's so hot. I'm making the asparagus/beef stir-fry instead. But I know I'm going to cook that roast tomorrow...I want some!
I checked my soy sauce...zero carbs, but lots of sodium....so I'm using it and drinking my water! Enjoy your chili! Think cool.:cool: |
Congrats Shells.
Sandy What a great link. Thanks. |
Beer brats and asparagus! I'm looking forward to the asparagus, totally my favorite veggie.
|
Thanks!
Thank you, Ghost Girl, I'm hoping more members will post their dinner menus to give us all more ideas about "What's for Dinner?"
Me too, BananaMarie, I love asparagus; I hate that it's so $$, though. |
