I had a great day of great tasting/great for me food. I had my usual breakfast of whole wheat toast, peanut butter, coffee and a banana. For lunch I reheated a turkey burger and had it with some blackberries (my new favorite) and yogurt. My snacks were all fruits and vegetables: carrots, an apple, and some raspberries (my other new addiction.) And for dinner I tried a new recipe! Well, it's not really new and I've made it before, but not for a long time. This time I made it Fit Erin Friendly.
Chicken Fajitas:
1 lb natural boneless, skinless chicken breasts cut into 1 inch pieces
1 green bell pepper
1/2 medium white onion (You can use a whole onion, but I only had half of one left over from my burgers.)
3 tbsp cornstarch
2 tbsp chili powder
1 tbsp salt
1 tbsp paprika
1/2 tbsp sugar
2-1/2 tsp ground up chicken boullion cube
1-1/2 tsp onion
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
1/2 tsp cumin
1/4 tsp red pepper flakes
1/3 cup water
1 green bell pepper
1/2 medium white onion (You can use a whole onion, but I only had half of one left over from my burgers.)
3 tbsp cornstarch
2 tbsp chili powder
1 tbsp salt
1 tbsp paprika
1/2 tbsp sugar
2-1/2 tsp ground up chicken boullion cube
1-1/2 tsp onion
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
1/2 tsp cumin
1/4 tsp red pepper flakes
1/3 cup water
Mix up seasoning in a small bowl. Spray pan with cooking spray and heat over medium flame. Cook chicken pieces until golden brown, add peppers and onions, stir for about 3 minutes until onions start to turn translucent. Add seasoning mixture and water. Stir until well mixed and heated through.
Makes 4 cups.

I had mine with a FlatOut Flatbread cut in half (80 calories,) 1/4 cup 2% Milk Shredded Mexican Style Cheese from Market Pantry (80 calories,) and 2 tablespoons of hot salsa (10 calories.) Grand total for a healthy and satisfying dinner: 366 calories. Yum! My camera is dead but I'll take a picture tomorrow when I reheat another serving! I had this with some more berries and yogurt for dessert. What can I say, I'm addicted to berries and yogurt!
And on the peanut butter front, I've only had my 2 tablespoons for breakfast today. Doing well on the goal so far!
