My fat wrap definitely held me over until after class. Although when I got home I munched on more than I should have. Although I have been staying up pretty late the last few nights so I guess I need something to hold me over until bed. (That's what I tell myself at least.) I decided to eat my leftover chicken cacciatore. It was good but definitely not as good as it was fresh....or perhaps the company just wsn't as good. ;-)
I decided I wanted a veggie with this so I zapped some brussel sprouts in the microwave. I topped them with some spray butter and Mrs. Dash and they were AWFUL. My family didn't really like brussel sprouts growing up so we didn't eat them a lot so I decided I would look up a new recipe online. I decided to top them with a bit of olive oil and S&P. I cooked them at 400 degrees for about a half hour. Once again they did not turn out too well. I did like the crispy outside but the inside was not great. Perhaps I should have let them cook a bit longer. I ate the crispy outsides and tossed the rest. ):

Round 2:
I still needed something else so I grabbed some granola and I also had a mint skinny cow.
Finally for my last snack of the night I had an apple with cinnamon. Whew. I got this yummy idea from Hungry Hungry Hippie. I haven't had this snack since I was little.
Off to watch more Olympics. (I love Shaun White! He is unbelievable.)

Yum! Skinny Cow! I haven't had one of those in ages! Those brussels sprouts look amazing!
ReplyDeleteI never really had brussels growing up either and I tried them and they were yuck (I overcooked them)...I will try your way next cause they look good and of course, i would like to love them;)
ReplyDeleteI have been watching the olympics almost every night...man they are incredible athletes!...imagine being their RD..hehe!
I cannot get the perfect roasted brussel sprouts either, I do not like them mushy, but rather crunchy and that is hard to achieve. Have a great weekend!!
