Dance Fever

Yesterday I played "Just Dance" with the little me. I forgot what a good little workout it could be. So today during nap time I popped it in a set a timer for 30 minutes. I worked it. But its mysterious (and embarrassing) how I can nail the "Pump up the Jam" which, by the way looks surprisingly similar to the "Carlton Dance" and yet I can not master the simple "Mash Potato"? This has to say tons about the quality of my rhythm.

Today's food was a story of repeats. I had coffee, oats and a baked apple for breakfast. 5
Lunch was a packed lunch as I was out and about town. I packed a salmon bagel thin with romaine and a thermos of sweet potato and apple soup. 9

But tonight, ah...tonight we are having one of my favorite dishes. Chicken Florentine. Easy Peasy. I make mine with reduced sodium instant gravy. I know its scandalous to use instant gravy, but I'm lazy when it comes to gravy. LOL. I usually lightly coat the chicken breasts in flour and brown. Pull the chicken and place in a casserole dish. Saute onion, garlic, mushroom and spinach together, set aside. Make 1 packet instant gravy as per instructions, make the other by substituting sherry in place of the water. Combine gravy with the spinach mixture and pour over the chicken. Traditionally you use provolone to top the dish, but in keeping with using what I have on hand, I will use some of the 8lb block of mozzarella that I have in the fridge.(Buying in bulk isn't always best, especially when it comes in an 8lb block of cheese.) Place in the oven at 350 and cook for about 30 minutes. Serve with rice or noodles if you have the points. I skipped the rice in place for a little extra chicken served over some 0 point broccoli. Using the WW recipie builder I came up with about 10 points per serving using 1 oz cheese.



That leaves me enough to enjoy an evening apple and possibly some clemintines and of course a glass of wine. Another successful day!
