I made some fried ham steaks, which I only had half of one. They looked really good and lean. Then I made baked sweet potatoes. I love these! And to go with those items I made Chili-Garlic Roasted Broccoli from this recipe:

Then for dessert I had a Jello brand sugar free chocolate pudding cup sweetened with Splenda. So good! :Love3:

What did you guys make?

I'd just like to add that I didn't use as much olive oil as the recipe called for. I used like maybe 3 Tablespoons instead.

Sounds delish! How did you like that broccoli? I have been wondering why I never hear of anyone roasting broccoli.

We had filet mignon on the grill, a salad and roasted asparagus. It was wonderful!

I was bad..I had wings. I was exhausted from driving home from the cottage so i ordered hubby a pizza and i had wings

Thanks for your honesty, Jenn! It happens. I can't say I haven't done it before myself. One meal isn't going to make you or break you. Besides, it was your birthday. You're allowed to kick up your heels on your birthday!

Moggy, I asked the bf about roasting the broccoli and he said he didn't think it could be done. Well, me being me, I looked it up on the internet anyway and found some recipes. That one sounded really good. I liked all the spices and the garlic on the broccoli but I think I burned it a little. So, you've got to keep an eye on them and don't forget to stir and turn them half way through the cooking process. But, yes, I would do this recipe again.
