Dinner for Wednesday and Thursday and Cafe Rio Salad

OOPS I forgot to post what I made for dinner on Wednesday....

I wanted to make something easy tonight..... I was tired of cooking so we made Nachos...

I used corn Tortillas 2 small corn Tortillas are 3 points for 16 chips, I cut them into triangles and baked them in the oven for about 15 min.

I cooked 3/4 lbs of 85 % Lean hamburger (if you use 85% hamburger, drain it and then rinse it it just the same as 93%) That is what I have been told.... 1/2 CUP 3 points.

opened a can of blackbeans 1/2 cup for 2 points, cut up tomatoes (FREE POINTS), Lettuce (FREE POINTS) Salsa (FREE POINTS) Sour cream, 2 TBSP for 2 points, I did add 1/3 cup of cheese on my chips and put it in the microwave and melted my cheese

Total for my Nachos are: 10 points and they were so YUMMMMMMY!!!!!

Thursday Dinner:

I made homemade hamburgers but instead of using Buns I used ice berg lettuce and had a lettuce wrap hamburger 3 points for hamburger Pattie, tomatoes, onions pickles, mustard and Ketchup..... (ALL FREE POINTS)

Edemamine (?) 1/2 cup 2 points, and an apple salad with Vanilla Yogurt 1 CUP 1 point.... and it was so good...

I made pretty easy meals but they were so good.....

I HAVE A BIG CONFESSION.... CAFE RIO SALAD

I had Cafe Rio Salad today for lunch... It was ok, it did not taste as good as the past, but here is a run down on the cafe rio salad

14" White Tortilla 11points
Tortilla Strips 04 points
Rice 03 points
Grilled chicken 03 Points
Pinto Beans 03 Points
Guacamole 01 points
1.5 oz Dressing 03 Points

Total 28 points BUT if you don't have the Tortilla or the Tortilla Strips you can save 15 points and make a great salad 13 POINTS...... (JUST A LITTLE SECRET!!!!!!)
