Back to the jungle...

Well, Dee & I had another "jungle" moment this weekend (see previous post "It's a jungle out there..." if you haven't already). In packing for our weekend away from home, I mistakenly grabbed a container of minestrone instead of chili, leading to some holes in the meal plan. Fortunately, we were again saved by the chili at Wendy's, which we've found to be a fairly healthy alternative in the fast-food realm. It's nice to know that a few small goof-ups won't derail your whole plan.

Minestrone Fail?!

Being pressed for time Tuesday evening, I tossed together a batch of Chicken Chili AND Minestrone within a very short time, and I was feeling pretty good about myself... until we cracked our Minestrone for lunch of Wednesday to find... no rotini. Oops!!! :)

Oh well, we still had the chickpeas in there and I didn't really miss them that much, plus we ended up saving about 30 calories per serving. But I think I'll try extra-hard to remember to put them in there next time.

Live and learn...
