what legal goodies did you have yesterday?

[Tired of Chub]

All the "planned off day" posts for yesterday are a downer to me. (anyone else?) And I want to know what LEGAL goodies you had yesterday???

I went to a dinner with my boyfriends family and everything was prepared so I didnt have to bring anything. (I Had a bag of goodies inthe car just in case so I could eat LOL). But I had some turkey and some green beans and a salad. was MORE then enough to satisfy me without that disgusting bloat feeling!


Im preparing my thanksgiving dinner on saturday for my BF and I with yummy legal goodies. (turkey breast brined and roasted, creamed spinach, cheesecake, cauliflower salad and green beans with bacon.)


So what wonderful LEGAL (for your Phase) foods did you enjoy yesterday?

I had roast turkey, gravy (I made it with xanthan gum, don't freak out) fauxtatoes (which I DID NOT like), green beans, and chocolate marble cheesecake...yum yum yum! I was pleasantly full, but really tried to control my portions...I probably still had too much turkey, but it was delectable!

We had Bacon Cheese Spread with Monterey Cheese Crisps, Deviled Eggs, and raw veggies with Dill Dip for appetizers. Then we had Turkey, Ham, Broccoli-Cauliflower Salad, Cheese Popovers, Faux Sweet Potatoes (plus dh had real candied sweet potatoes), and Decadent Mocha Mousse w/whipped cream for dessert.

We have tons of food leftover, some of which is already frozen.

It is a whole lot of fun fixing this stuff, knowing that it is legal, healthy and oh so tasty.

Not heard of these, MomtoEli - how do you make them?

Re: what legal goodies did you have yesterday?

We had deep fried turkey--the crunchy skin was sooo yummy! I made sausage and acorn squash something--it looked like stuffing to me which made me happy and it's soooo yummy. My cousins' partner is doing South Beach and he made mashed rutabaga (sp?) and roasted veggie (squash,peppers,asparagus) and my sister made a big pot of Collard Greens. I also had 1 spoonful of lima beans. (I'm on OWL)

I also made a low carb cheesecake....which everyone was scarfing down and asking me for the recipe! YUM YUM YUM

I have to admit that I overate my legal foods....but they were all LEGAL.

My turkey was really good this year. I've become a food network junkie and watched all the Thanksgiving shows. I fixed my turkey like one that Tyler Florence did. I mixed butter and fresh sage leaves, and stuffed that between the skin and the meat on the breast. The sage flavor came through wonderfully!

Two things I started off with yesterday after getting back from the Turkey Trot were the meat and cheese and veggie and dip platters. Love those!

P.S: I'd really like to try deep-fried turkey!

Re: what legal goodies did you have yesterday?

I've always wanted to try the deep fried turkey too. My dad got one as a gift from work one year but with all the horror stories we've never tried to use it.

Re: what legal goodies did you have yesterday?

Some friends have one and they deep fry turkeys every year around this time. They inject them with marinades (cajun is amazing). They are the best turkeys I've ever had!
