So I haven't posted a recipe or anything lately, and last night, I mad a great dinner that was so easy and very low points. Jay gobbled it right up and comment several times on how good it was. Here's the picture:
Grilled Pork chop (3 ounces) - 3 Points
2 Tbsp Jack Daniels Spicy Original BBQ sauce - 1 Point
Spicy Green Beans - 1/2 Point
Meal Total = 4.5 Points
So here's how I make the Spicy Green Beans. I cut the ends off of the green beans. You don't have to do this, but I tend to choke on the little stringy ends sometimes, so I cut them. I put 2 cups of the beans in a non-stick skillet on the stove top and heat it over medium low with 1/2 cup of water, 1 tsp of olive oil and red pepper flakes, stirring often. I think they were on the stove a total of 5-7 minutes. Then you just divide them up on the plates. That's it! It's a nice spicy twist on snap green beans.
Until next time...
Eat to live, don't live to eat.
Congrats on your loss!!!! And you are so close to lifetime, I'm jealous.
ReplyDeleteNext time you make the green beans, try adding a shot of Low Sodium Soy sauce to them... it will make them a great asian side dish!!!
Oh and I still love your plates. I saw them a few weeks back at BB&B on sale, and sooo almost bought them if Michael hadn't talked me out of it.
Congrats! That's awesome :)
ReplyDeleteThanks, girls! Colleen - I've also made the green beans with soy sauce and reduced fat feta cheese. The feta makes it 2 points, but so worth it.
ReplyDeletemmm. I've got some fat free feta (at Krogers in the deli department) that I might have to try that.
