Happy Hump Day Dinner

Well I couldn't decide what was for dinner tonight I thought about it all day, trying to decide what sounded good. SO I decided on skinny quesadilla burgers. My boyfriend loved them!

Ingredients:

1lb lean ground beef

Jalapenos

Low Carb Tortillas

Cheese (if you want)

Spices to taste (we used red pepper flakes, garlic powder and pepper)

 

Combine the ground beef, jalapenos and spices in a bowl, use your hands to mash it all together:

 

We used a flat top skillet but you can also use a pan/george foreman

 I made two larger patties for my boyfriend, before you put the tortilla on the pan try to wipe off any excess grease that has cooked off, I just blot with a paper towel. Cook tortilla on both sides (you can also add cheese at this time if you want it to melt)

 You can use ketchup, or hot sauce... I prefer hot sauce the other half prefers ketchup.

I served the burger with the brown rice we made with out skinny enchiladas the other day, this is a picture of my boyfriends plate. On mine I ripped off the excess tortilla and left off the cheese! BUT, it was pretty good and super filling meal!

If you make this or something like this send me your recipes!

Food Friday

Tonight's dinner was DELICIOUS, super easy and pretty healthy!

Ingredients:

• 1-4 large boneless skinless chicken breast (use as many as you want per person or if you are cooking for multiples use more)
• Sweet Baby Ray's BBQ Sauce
• Franks Red Hot
• Red Pepper Flakes
• Garlic Powder
•  salt/pepper to taste

Boil the chicken breast in a pan full of water, should take about 20 minutes but the time will depend on your oven, make sure the chicken is cooked all the way.

Set the chicken on a plate and shred away using a fork. Place all the shredded chicken pieces in a bowl:

Add BBQ Sauce, Franks Red Hot, Red Pepper Flakes, Garlic Powder all to taste. If you want it more spicy add more of the red pepper flakes and franks red hot, if you want a BBQ flavor add more BBQ Sauce. Mix all the ingredients until the chicken is all covered:

Place in the fridge for about an hour or two to let the flavor marinate into the chicken.

The chicken will already be fully cooked, but place on a skillet to heat up and to cook the flavors into the chicken (I recommend cooking on medium heat so you don't burn your chicken-or dry it out):

The best part about this chicken is you can put it in a wrap, on a salad, eat it by itself or the method in our house tonight was to place on hamburger buns and enjoy:

Super easy super tasty!

I finally have broken my plateau that I hit with my weight loss, I was stuck and I've lost about 2 lbs this week, I love seeing the numbers drop and just feeling better about myself. I've lost a total of 76lbs since September!

Yesterdays lunch is my new obsession:

 

So it was 1 medium sized organic boneless skinless chicken breast

fresh organic garlic, to taste, (I like alot)-diced

I did about 2.5 handfuls of organic spinach

1 tablespoon of flax

1 teaspoon of olive oil

red pepper flakes to taste

Spinach shrinks as you cook it so you could always add more as you go

 

It takes about 10-20 minutes to cook, make sure your chicken is cooked all the way through! 

 Then you are done, and you will probably full for most of the day!
