One Week Away!

Only one week until Christmas folks! Craziness! We are celebrating on Sunday night with Andrew's family and then my family on Christmas Day. Our office is closing at noon on Tuesday and I plan on heading to Taylorville after I have lunch with Andrew. Unfortunately he works 3pm-11pm on Christmas Eve and we both decided I should go be with family instead of sitting at home by myself all night. Sunday night is going to be interesting because none of my in-laws have food issues/weight problems so it is always a bunch of food that is not WW friendly and I always have to be extra mindful of my decisions. Plus, now that I'm not eating meat it will probably be best for me to eat before I go and just have a few of the sides so Grandma-in-law isn't offended. She does make an excellent Jell-O/Applesauce concoction that I adore....

WeightWatchers & Food:
Yesterday went kind of according to plan. I ended up having my PB&J yogurt with lunch instead of dinner and then for dinner I had cauliflower lime rice with my tilapia and then spicy buffalo cauliflower bites with some light ranch for an evening snack.
And OMG.


This is my new favorite thing in the world. I am going to buy a head of cauliflower every week so I can make this. I cannot even describe how delicious this recipe is. If you love buffalo wings (like I do) and never really eat them because of the PP values... then make this. The texture is perfect and the taste is wonderful. I used Gina's suggestion of getting Frank's Buffalo Sauce and it is very tasty. This is going to be a staple in my house.

Today's Menu:
B: Orange dreamsicle overnight oats, coffee w/peppermint mocha creamer

Yummy.











S: String Cheese, grapefruit
L: Lentil Soup (minus the chicken), spicy buffalo cauliflower bites with 2 T light ranch, banana
S: Cilantro lime cauliflower rice
D: Boca Burger on a light english muffin, a veggie of some sort, 1/2 c. rice and beans

I have never done overnight oats before but I am going to be doing it more often. It is so easy and so nice in the morning. All I have to do is take it out of the fridge, throw it in a bowl and heat it. The one I had this morning was so creamy and the fresh orange in there was a wonderful touch. I used almond milk and Chobani vanilla yogurt in mine.

I really want to try this one next. Does that not look amazing?!
