Paying for the cravings...

Last night my husband and I gave into a craving for hot wings...and we seem to both be paying for it today.  Ah well back to the healthy stuff and getting a good clean out in the process.  It appears my Mum lost 12lbs in the last two weeks between our diet and her illness, she is promising herself to continue to eat the way we have been and to continue with things seeing as she has had a jump start.  So far btw the girls seem to have been spared our misery.

Lets see tried the ahi tuna steaks as suggested from Trader Joes, not bad but thinking unless it's done sushi style I think I'm not that huge of a fan of tuna.  I did make a lovely orange and soy (low sodium) dressing to go with it and it was ok, just yeah I think I prefer white fish.

Lets see some of the meals that I've missed blogging about include a sunset orzo with Spanish shrimp, that was fabulous, although a tad spicy not something that the girls liked unfortunately and most of their portions ended up on the floor.  I'm thinking I can do orzo and peas for them and some shrimp (yep they liked the shrimp) and skip a step and serve it that way.  I strongly suspect the culprit for the spice was the sausage so I can easily make something for them using the same ingredients and just switch a step or two out.
