Chocolate, Chocolate, Chocolate and an Egg White Pancake

Last night's dinner was a FreshDirect "short cut" of Stewed Pull Chicken. We served it with a salad and gluten free schar parbaked rolls. It was easy, simple and only 8 points. It was so beautiful out last night, so Ryan and I went for a walk after dinner and went to buy dessert. I was planning on making quest bar cereal, but we bought Ben & Jerry's Froyo Chocolate Fudge Brownie and Immaculate Gluten Free Fudge Brownie Chocolate Cookie Dough...YUM! The cookies were gluten and dairy free. It was a chocolate overload (and I topped it with arctic zero chocolate peanut butter ice cream). Each cookie is 4 points, but I wanted froyo so I measured out 19g of cookie dough (2 points) and 52g of froyo (2 points) and 35g of arctic zero (0 points) for the most delicious chocolatey dessert. I topped it with 3g hemp granola (0 points) and 3g coconut chips (0 points).


I loved that the cookie dough was pre cut into chunks so it was really easy to put on a baking sheet and bake for 13 minutes!

This morning I had breakfast at home. It was an egg white and oatmeal pancake with chia seeds and powdered peanut butter blended together (6 points) and topped with hemp granola, flax seeds, goji berries and sliced almonds (toppings weighed to be 0 points)! This was so filling and I used a small pan so it was really thick and fluffy!


Last night I prepped a chicken salad for lunch today. Maybe I can try to get outside to eat for a bit today!

It is so warm and sunny this morning so I walked to work! It was beautiful and a nice change from the cold windy days we've had (and still have ahead of us this week)!


Tomorrow starts the craziness of our busy weekend beginning with early bar method and an evening focus group. Long days are made a lot easier though when it is still bright out when I head home!

I hope everyone enjoys the sunshine today! Get out and take a walk if you can!!
