The Beginning and Where I Am

I started this new journey four weeks ago tomorrow, using the Weight Watchers plan.  This week has been a bit harder but I've still tracked everything that goes in my mouth and I haven't used ALL of my indulgence points though I've dipped into them.  Tomorrow is my weigh in.  Hopefully I'm still on the losing side.  I decided to start this blog because I wanted to share my ideas about food and the creations I've come up. 

The other night I had plain ole chicken breasts.  They can be pretty boring.  I get tired of looking for recipes and, honestly, I usually don't have the ingredients I need for any particular recipe.  That particular night I was just cooking for myself.  I had no one else to please.  I looked around the kitchen and saw a small onion.  I peeled it, and I cut in half and sliced it.  I sprayed a small skillet with cooking spray and threw in the onion slices.  I then started cutting the chicken into bite size pieces.  As I did so, I looked around the kitchen again and spied some apples.  After I finished the chicken, and it was cooking with the onions, I chopped the apple and then ran out to the herb garden for some fresh sage which I minced and threw in.  I added salt, fresh ground pepper and some chicken broth.  When the chicken broth had cooked down and the chicken was cooked through, it was done!  Yummy yummy yummy!!!  And I figured it to be 3 points.    I did share some with my son who asked for it again the next night when I made enough for my husband who liked it as well. 

Until the next creation. . . or next time I post!
