I am totally not a grilled chicken salad every freakin night kinda girl. This gorgeous dinner is smoked pork chop (2.7 oz.), mac and cheese (about 3/4 cup), purple cauliflower (162 grams), and grape tomatoes (55 grams). To me this is more like comfort food than diet food, but it was all of 380 calories.
For the mac and cheese I used a half serving (1/4 cup measured dry) of Dreamfields elbow macaroni, 5-8 sprays of I Can't Believe It's Not Butter, and 3/8 cup of Sargento low fat shredded cheddar. I steamed my cauliflower with lime juice in the water and some fiesta lime seasoning on the cauliflower. The tomatoes are just raw grape tomatoes. The pork chop is from Smithfields and I just browned it in a skillet with some 0 calorie cooking spray.
Eating healthy and losing weight is not going to make me deprive myself. People should enjoy their food.
