Well, hurry up and eat your low-fat meal I've prepared so you can get going! I'm in my jammies.

Don't forget to break into Trader Joes!

Naked at an Ice Cream Parlor is far more intriguing...

Helllo? Shrinkage?

Oh great. Now I'm craving ice cream. Plus the IHOP from last night.

Run naked to the ice cream parlor, then warm your naughty bits with a half stack of pancakes (syrup optional)

Reading LoT may be hazardous to a diet.

Since it's been so hot the last couple of days, I've been attempting to make things that require absolutely NO cooking. Trader Joe's has already cooked wild and brown rice as well as seasoned cooked chicken breast. I combined both types of rice, a citrus-herb chicken, crumbled goad cheese, orange and yellow peppers, Japanese cucumbers, toasted almonds, fresh chopped ginger and sliced kumquats with a lemon ginger bottled dressing I found at TJs. I make a salad out of those ingredients then put it on top of the bagged herb greens mix (also from TJ's) and it was simply delish! We ate it two nights in a row and I didn't have to heat the kitchen at all.

I am going to try something similar with tiny black lentils (which will require a tiny bit of cooking) and other flavors (that I haven't decided upon yet).

Breakfast egg dishes and main dish salads are the two things I relally love experimenting with, and adding the challenge of no-cooking makes it interesting (for the salads at least).

Don't ask me for how much of what. I don't know. I just chop and add and see how it looks. I'm really precise about my cooking.

Uncooked egg products make for glorious food fight weapons...

That sounds amazing Lisa.

I've been making veggie salad again. Zuchinni, yellow squash, cucumber, carrots and tomatos (that's all I have) mixed up with some veggie pasta (made of veggies, no carbs, requires a tiny bit of cooking) and balsamic viniger.

Also on the menu is avacado sammiches. 2 slices of 7 grain bread, mustard, cheddar cheese and munster cheese, tomato and avacado. Put together in sammich form.

Been making a lot of grilled veggies. Zuchinni, yellow squash, tomato and onion. When I go to the store I'll be getting bell pepper and mushrooms to add to the mix. I've also been throwing on some veggie sausage from morning star farms for protien. I love my grill.
