I served mine with mini WW pitas and fresh tomatoes.

Here's my yummy food for today. It's a Chicken Prosciutto Turnover in wine sauce with brown rice, steamed snap peas, and grape tomatoes on the side. I even have a banana for dessert!



This is my lunch portion. I've figured out that I do much better eating about 1/4 of OBM for breakfast and supper and then about 1/2 for lunch. It seems to be working better for me with most meals.

After doing a split up meal approach one day, I've decided OBM is probably a little easier to manage during the challenge. I'm spending a lot of time on training and I have too little extra time as it is! Making OBM simplifies the whole process.

Recipe for Chicken Prosciutto Mozzarella in Wine Sauce - 2 servings

30g Boar's Head Prosciutto di Parma (2 thin slices)
26g Mozzarella cheese slices (2 slices)
375g boneless skinless chicken breast pounded to 1/4" thickness (2)
10g butter
1 fl.oz dry white wine
2 tsp parsley

Pound each chicken breast until 1/4" thick. Place 15g prosciutto (one thin slice, fat included), 23 g mozzarella slice on each flattened breast and fold in half. Secure with toothpick, if desired. Heat small amount of butter in small non-stick skillet over medium high heat (I used just enough to barely coat the bottom because I was saving the butter for my rice! I suppose you could put all the butter in the pan and then pour the sauce over your rice. Same idea...) Saute chicken 3-4 minutes per side until chicken is barely opaque throughout. Add wine and simmer 5 minutes. (I covered the pan). Remove chicken to plate. Add parsley to wine sauce and simmer to reduce sauce. Pour over chicken. Per serving: 322 calories, 1g carbs, 9g fat, 56g protein

I got to thinking about yummy Italian food and then it hit me, why not make a crustless Chicken Calzone. Pound the chicken breast, put mozzarella and turkey pepperoni in it, saute in a pan till golden, add lowfat, low sodium spaghetti sauce, and let simmer for a few minutes. I'd accompany with a simple green salad (org baby red leaf and grape tomatoes spritzed with balsamic vinegar) and brown rice pasta.

Chicken Calzone with Pepperoni



OK, be honest. Does that idea sound good or gross? I've learned my lesson on making OBM that I can barely get down... It has to be good to start with or I'm in for a rough day!

Shepherd's Pie - 8x8" pan



Brown the meat and onion in a small non-stick skillet. Stir in worcestershire sauce. Add a dash of pepper, if desired. While that cooks, thaw the frozen green beans in a sauce pan with warm water.

Cut the potatoes very thinly. Place slices into saucepan with 2 cups of chicken broth. Simmer until potatoes soften and chicken broth begins to thicken. Use a slotted spoon or spatula to remove potatoes from chicken broth. Place potatoes in frying pan with butter and saute.

To assemble: Layer the green beans, meat mixture, then potatoes. Pour thickened chicken broth over all. Top with grated cheese. Bake at 350 for about 30 minutes until bubbly.

Next time, I will reduce the Worcestershire sauce to 1 Tbsp because I misread the label. It's 5 calories for 1 tsp not 1 Tbsp and the sodium is a bit higher than intended! At least it's only 2,047 this time.
