I'm having a big chopped salad with peppers, tomatoes, turkey breast, arugala, red onion, cukes and some nice olive oil/balsamic/cumin spiced dressing.
Today will be chopped up turkey cutlets in marinara sauce and pasta and a big old salad with tomatoes and squash from the garden...it may be tomato overkill, but we gotta eat em today!
Cottage – where do you find SF dried cranberries? I’ve looked at typical grocery stores in my area in the past with no success.
Thx.
"Eden" brand carries a line of dried fruits sweetened with apple juice. I've found them in most grocery stores in my area, in the natural foods section. I have the managers of two Trader Joe's in my area scouring around to find a sugar free brand to start carrying, too.
I hope your salad recipe turns out as good as it sounds!

Last night we ended up having crabmeat omelets and sauteed zucchini with salad. It was sooo good.
I have no idea for tonight because I haven't been to the store since we got back. DH had to go out to pick up his meds and I told him since it was his last home-cooked meal for a few months to pick up whatever he wanted - he'll probably get steaks.
Tonight will be chicken-coconut curry with carrots-broccoli-cauliflower, and cilantro on top. Green salad. 4 oz red wine.
It's very interesting to me that I generally don't eat grains at dinner anymore, even though I could. I guess South Beach has kind of changed my mind about grains being a must item.
sweet potato/black bean burritos on ww tortillas with a little cheddar, red onion, and cilantro.
They are my favorite lately. A recipe makes enough for two meals for all three of us. My mouth is watering just thinking about them. mmmmmm.
DH said he wanted a salad on the side, so I sent him to the store to get salad ingredients. He's pretty good at it, so I'm sure he'll get peppers, avocado, onions, tomatos, cukes and some sort of lettuce.
War Maiden - I agree completely in regards to grains for dinner. I'll usually have rice or pasta once a week for dinner to make dh happy, but I rarely "need" them anymore. Feels really good!
After a bit of a struggle from lack of going to the store, I finally went to the store tonight. I had a whole wheat bagel with LF chive n onion cream cheese and a bowl of "taco" vegetable soup (minus meat.) I'd planned on having a salad as well but I'm quite satisfied now so I think I'll save that for tomorrow.
Boy oh boy do some of your dinners sound good. Wish I'd gotten grape tomatoes at the store!
