You're too strong Gina - I just can't believe how saintly you are ;-)

My puff pastry chicken pie was fun - I wasn't intending to eat the pastry and this is the first time I've ever cooked puff pastry... well I didn't leave enough space from the top of the oven for it to rise without it burning he he!! ;-)  DH was sitting in the room and I can't believe he couldn't smell the burning.  I walked in and the oven had had the pie in it for about 20 minutes.  BTW it was a pre-made one as I'm so not a chef!!.

Well, I flunked saint school today, I had a sourdough grilled cheese sandwich today. 44 carbs. {sigh} 

I do love puff pastry, oh my goodness, it's so good...but deadly. 

Hi Gina,
Love your comment about flunking saint school! Me too, over and over.
Minor ice storm yesterday, but I was out when it was at its worst. Came home early trying to miss it. Wanted to bake cookies......goes with winter weather, I guess....but didn't have the ingredients.

S: pumpkin bread (sigh)
L: cheese nachos. (double sigh)
S: cheese
D: plan steak bites wrapped in bacon, salad

V: one batch left
F: ok
E: BIG grocery shopping for the holiday, watching football, nap

Yeah, it's been one of those days. Be careful out there in the ice. 

Hey friends! I haven't done this before but I figured I would try my hand. 😊

Breakfast: protein shake (30 G protein)

breakfast 2: 1/2 cup ham, onion and cheese omelet made by my awesome hubs! And a little sour cream and salsa (10 G protein?)

lunch: cheddar broccoli soup thanks to mother in law - wish I would have brought unflavored protein powder to throw in... Oh well! (Protein 10 G protein?)

dinner: will either have some cashew chicken or another shake (30 G protein either way) 

total : 80 G protein

vites: still working on them

Good job! I hope you feel better. Welcome to Bites & Vites.  : )
