**Nighttime Nesties**

Anyone else around tonight?  I just finished eating dinner (my low carb pizza was delicious) and I'm having a glass of wine and watching a little TV.

    http://www.food.com/recipe/low-carb-pizza-84516

    It was good!  I used egg beaters, low fat cheese, low fat cream cheese and turkey pepperoni!  It ended up being about 250 calories per slice and it was a lot of protein!  Although it did sort of taste like a pizza omelet, lol.  No complaints from me though!  DH liked it too!

    That sounds pretty good, I may have to try that!  

    I am waiting for DH to finish making Mongolian Chicken.

  • Mongolian Chicken sounds pretty good!  

    I need to figure out a dinner plan for tomorrow and I was thinking something with chicken.  I make a really good baked General tsos chicken and fried rice, but I'm trying to eat low carb, and those don't really qualify as low carb.  I could probably do the chicken and then eat a salad and make rice for DH.  Hm.... I normally have all of this planned in advance, but this week I seem to be in a rut...

  • What if you make brown rice instead?  I know its not low carb but its better than the white stuff.

  • I'm in a major cooking rut lately too!  Tonight we had roasted red skin potatoes (I cheated and just baked the frozen ones) and DH had a chicken and cheese sub and I had just sauteed mushrooms & onion & cheese sub.  I've had the LONGEST two days at work and I just didn't feel like giving it much effort!  Last night we had salad and breadsticks from Basil Boys.  I really need to get my butt in gear to make some good meals that are WW friendly!!

    That might work.  The whole point of the "low carb" thing was to cut out all of the processed crap that I crave.  Brown rice is certainly healthier.  I may still have the salad and make brown rice for DH Smile

     I feel your pain on this one!  I have been doing terrible since Christmas.  The girl scout cookies don't help.  Maybe we should start a recipe exchange post to help spark dinner ideas?

    That's a great idea!  I am probably one of the least picky eaters I know and I'm married to one of the pickiest.  It makes meal planning NOT fun!!!

    DH is so picky too!  His mom used to make four different things for dinner every night.  1 for her and FIL, 1 for DH, 1 for BIL and 1 for SIL.

    I told DH this would NEVER happen in our house lol.

    Oh my!!!!  That's not going to happen here either.  The only reason it sounds like we had a different dinner tonight is because I decided I didn't want chicken and just ate the veggies!

    I would certainly not cook four different meals!!! That's crazy!   But I feel for you guys.  I'm not really that picky, but I'm definitely more picky than DH.  I do the cooking, so I only cook stuff that I like.

    And that's not a totally different meal, that's just taking something out of the meal.  (it sounded like a good meal though!)

    If DH and I order pizza, it is usually from Aubrees (in Ypsilanti)!!!  It is awesome!  I just love that I can get sesame seed crust and they have the most amazing feta bread ever!  I want to learn how to make it, so I can eat it more often!  (But clearly, none of this fits in with my attempt to eat healthy.... Sad)

    Yum..Feta bread sounds awesome!  I have Aubrees pizza and it is good!  We always order from Basil Boys (in Milan, there's also one in Tecumseh).  Their breadsticks are SO good!  They have great pizza too!

    I also love BBQ chicken pizza from Pizza House in Ann Arbor but usually only get that when we have parties at work!

    I was watching the movie "old dogs" but DH just left for Hockey, so I can watch what I want now.  I'm curious about "cheapskates"  I'm going to watch that now!  Smile  I will watch biggest loser on demand tomorrow! Big Smile  Although, FIL is going to show up any minute, and I'll probably be embarrassed with whatever I'm watching! 

    ETA: That guy is singing the aria to an opera and tickets to a show in exchange for a wedding cake and an outdoor space for an engagement party!  Holy cow!  Now he's bartering for a $25 hair cut... geeze.  

    ETA2: That show is ridiculous... I would definitely watch it again though, because I love ridiculous TV Wink

    I couldn't turn it on because we have 2 things recording right now but she said it reminded her of me because this lady was buying expired spaghetti sauce for .50 cents just because it was cheap.  I AM cheap, but I don't think I'm THAT cheap!

    I'm actually really surprised that legally you can sell expired spaghetti sauce.  My MIL and FIL used to own a convenience store and we always got to eat the "expired" (like one day past the expiration date ice cream or potato chips!)  food because he couldn't sell it anymore.

    DH thinks I'm crazy because I love watching shows like that.  I think I've seen Taboo, I remember watching something about a girl that was addicted to eating plastic, I think it was that show.
