Texas-Style Casserole

My day yesterday was a tad bit more organized point wise. I had my coffee because my loving husband walked and got me spanish coffee. He always is thinking about me. Anyway, I had coffee for 2. I ate some shrimp and pasta stuff for 5 points. Popcorn 6, and dinner was Texas-style casserole for 5 oh, and a glass of wine for 2.

I went one point over I know. I shouldn't have had that second glass of wine. I only drank half of it so technically it was only 1 point but I count it as 2 due to the fact that was what the serving was.

This casserole was supposed to be for breakfast. But if you are like me, and enjoy a good breakfast for dinner, then this is the recipie for you. The only downside to this is that it really wasn't that "filling". So, you may want to add a low-point side to go with it.

I also have realized that when I weigh in on Friday (in 2 days) I will have been on WW for 1 month. It has flown by. I am loving the results so far. I can't wait until I get back from Paris so I can toss exercise in the mix. I am ready for cardio that will get my heart pumping and makes me feel like I am alive. I want for my friends to see me when I go back to the states later this year to go "WOW, Spain really agrees with you".
