sarahmichiganI love it when I prepare a meal and it looks pretty, like something out of a magazine, in addition to tasting good. I love eating something that tastes so good it makes me moan with pleasure and also knowing that it's good for me as well.
So far today, I've had
Breakfast: a one-egg omelet with button mushroom slices and chopped red bell pepper, and about half an ounce of cheddar cheese on top of a buttered whole wheat piece of toast, along with a clementine and a strong cup of coffee with cream. I tell you, the red peppers and yellow egg and orange of the citrus looked mighty pretty, especially with the morning sun coming in the kitchen window.
Lunch: Mixed salad greens with chopped mushroom and red bell pepper, dressed with low-fat cottage cheese and sundried tomato salad dressing (Newman's, reduced fat), a microwave "pizetta" with tomatoes and basil, a bunch of green grapes, and a diet, caffeine free cola.
Snack: All-Bran multigrain crackers with more low-fat cottage cheese. I like the concept of a high fiber (5 grams per serving) cracker, but I wished they were a little more savory and less sweet. I think these would go better with peanutbutter or jam rather than something savory like cheese.
