Had a pretty decent breakfast/lunch/brunch today. I made some egg-substitute in the microwave, added 2Tbsp. of Chipotle salsa to it, whipped up a fruit salad of strawberries, blueberries, and a banana, sort of macerated in a bit of Splenda, and a peach yogurt. Not amazing or anything, but it took me about 10 minutes to make, and about an hour to eat, taking smallish bites at a time and switching from eggs to salad and back.
Snacks at Krispy Kreme (so not worth it -- but thanks to the blogging process I just double checked and realized I doubled the points) was a chocolate donut and a frappuccino. And some baby carrots not to long ago, but those were 0 points. Surprisingly, the baby carrots never really sound appetizing when I think about getting some of them, but once I'm actually eating them, I'm surprised at how good they are.
Dinner at Denny's was a build-your-own Chicken burger for 13 points, complete with dippable veggies. Although Denny's kind of pissed me off claiming not to have fat-free ranch when it's clearly listed on their nutritional guide, and seriously, 3 2-inch stalks of celery and 2 cucumber slices are what qualify as "dippable veggies", intended to replace that pound of fscking french fries? Not buying it, sorry. You cheaped out, and I'm calling you on it.
The chicken burger, however, was excellent. But I take at least half of the credit for that because I designed it. :-P
But, that leaves me with a whopping 27 points remaining. I know that in general it's not a great idea to leave a lot of points, so I'm going to go make some steak strip things -- I think I can use a lot of points there quickly without being really "bad" about it. Maybe a bit of basalmic on them. I'll have to report back on whether that's any good or not.
