Chicken soup and biscuits



This was an easy dinner to whip up. Thanks to the fact I had cooked up about 6 chicken breasts a couple of days before this meal.
Chicken soup:
½-¾c. Chicken broth
2-3 c. water
1 pkg. low-sodium chicken boullion
approx. 1 c. cut up cooked chicken
2 stalks of celery, cut up
2 carrots, cut up
1-2 cloves garlic, minced
¾-1c. instant brown rice
Salt and pepper, to taste ( I don't put salt in mine)
Put everything except rice into a lge. pot. Let simmer for approx. 20 mins. Add rice, and let simmer for 10 mins, or until preferred tenderness of rice.

Friday night dinner


Friday was a lil hectic! I made my muffins for staff appreciation at my youngest son's school (yummy applesauce muffins!) and supervised school patrols in the morning. I was thankful I only had to work for a few hours.
On my way home from work, my friend and I stopped by Planet Organic market. I picked some dried pineapple, dried apple and roasted cashews. Yummy!
Back home at dinner hour, I was glad there was some left over pork tenderloin. So into the electric skillet it went along with some frozen organic veggies and instant brown rice.
After dinner as hubby and the kids headed off to Wal-mart for their dvd and game fix, I headed to the couch!!!! ZZZZZZZ!

Thursday night dinner



In an attempt to eat healthier and to have some accountablility, I will try and share what I eat.


Thursday night was yummy!

Pork Tenderloin with fresh ground three pepper medley and garlic along with roasted sweet potato, turnip and zucchini.


I have to remember to not roast the zucchini as long as the other veggies or they get too mushy.


I usually eat all my dinner meals on a luncheon size plate. Gotta remember portion size!
