What's In The Pot

Sitting here after a breakfast that was not so good for me, that included some sausage that was way too fatty.... but my husband prepared it without asking if I wanted any, so.... in a way I felt obliged to eat it.

UGH.

Not a good thing for my weight loss or the old arteries.

So, here are a couple of things that we have eaten lately that are a wee bit better for us.

 A few days ago I had this for breakfast.... sort of my version of an egg omelet that included cannelloni beans instead of meat, a few onions, and some avocado slices. 

Once the omelet was folded and on my plate I added just a small amount of salsa.

It was delicious!

FYI:  If you are trying to keep your salt intake down, rinse the beans before using since all canned items contain a lot of salt.  AND, I find the juice they are packed in to be GROSS!

 Cabbage has been on the menu a few times as well.

We cut it into one to two inch sized squares and then sauté a bit in olive oil, sprinkle with some celery seeds and a bit of pepper.

Unsalted butter, just a tad, can also be used, but go sparingly with it.

Now, top it with some cubed grilled chicken breast left over from the previous night's dinner and you have created a super delicious and healthy meal.

We will be having this again!

And THAT my friends is what's been in our cooking pot.
