dinner!

I know a lot of you have expressed concerns about dinner time. one of the simplest meals is spaghetti... get experimental with it, i dont use sauce from a can, i build my own with fresh tomatoes, garlic, red, green, yellow, and orange peppers, onion, and tons of seasoning... if the consistency is too runny add a can of tomato paste... this is a great way to get the kids to eat veggies ( and your pesky husbands) also experiment with different meats... turkey keilbasa, ground turkey sausage, regular ground turkey, even TVP if you want to go the vegan route... always use whole wheat noodles and remember it is an entree not a meal... a serving of spaghetti should only cover about a quarter of your plate, add a green salad and some fruit and you have a perfectly square meal... Happy Eating!!
PS... what has everyone been doing for activities... get up and move!!! remember, eat to live dont live to eat... :-)

  1. Hey Tym! Thanks again for this. Tuesday was my first day out of the walking boot from the broken foot. I still have to be careful and take it easy (so no zumba or kickboxing yet) but I am super excite to go on my first walk since JULY! I am meeting up with a friend this afternoon and walking!!! Hoping to go for an hour at a leisurely pace (which is MUCH faster than I have been moving for 6 months). I will keep you posted.
