Pampered Chef, I love thee!

My boss had a Pampered Chef party, so I put in an order. I ordered an Olive Oil Infuser, some Rosemary rub, and the highlight being Sweet Caramel Sprinkle.

Last night I made a chicken breast topped with the Rosemary rub in my steamer. It was moist and delicious. The rosemary flavour goes so nicely with chicken. YUM. I had some roasted asparagus and quinoa topped with almonds along with it.
For desert I sliced up some mango and banana and topped it with the caramel sprinkles. Best part: Its only 15 cals per tsp. Its sooo good. I can see this becoming a staple in my diet. Especially with the lack of chocolate for the next 40 days.

Tonight I made honey mustard salmon, shrimp, roasted sweet taters and a side of mixed veggies. I topped the sweet taters with the caramel sprinkles also which totally enhanced the flavour!

I had a great workout this evening after work. I did 15 mins upper body, 15 mins abs on the bosu and then Body Attack class.
I'm feeling pretty frustrated of late. I know I deserved to gain this week, but frig, what gives? Can I not enjoy a weekend without the scale jumping up HUGE amounts? I'm over it. Its incentive to stay completely on track this weekend. No excuses.

Have a great evening. I'm going to watch some Dexter. I always have the weirdest dreams ever after watching it... same type of dreams after watching 24. Mmmm. Jack Bauer. Thats one show I will never tire of!

Found you today and hope you don't mind me following along. I love Pampered Chef too. I love my oil spritzer. I haven't tried the spices but I think that the caramel one is going on my list of thigs to buy. I also love love love my stoneware from them. It bakes everything so perfectly. I'm hooked.
