This is a meal that we had last week that was entirely planned using Pinterest. Thoe of you who know me well are well aware of my addiction to Pinterest. Yes, addiction. It has even been said that I need a Pin-tervention. :) I cannot help it though, I not only enjoy looking for recipe this way, but I have found it very helpful in meal planning. I now even have weekly menu boards created on Pinterest to organize my weekly meal plans. It has become a great tool. So I guess you could say that this meal, in a small way, does prove that I actually do make recipes that I find on there. :) Anyway, I was in the mood for a different kind of bbq meal so I choose to make Asian Grilled Drumsticks, Asian Cabbage Mango Slaw, Tricolor Thai Salad with Zucchini & Yellow Squash, and plain white rice. Early in the day I put the salads together and because there were so many vegetables it involved a bit of prep work. Plus l thought it would be a good idea to get the vegetables maridnading to allow time to soak up the flavors of the dressing.
Today was grocery day. I shopped the sales fliers and came home with some lovely looking strawberries. I knew they would go great with the Fat Free Jello Pudding that we already had in the pantry. I prepared the pudding with 1% milk and spooned 1/2 cup into each dessert dish. I washed and sliced the strawberries and layered them on top and lastly added a heaping tablespoon of cool whip on top. A very simple and low fat, low cal dessert and oh boy was it ever delicious! For dinner we had Pulled Pork Sandwiches with Coleslaw. We tried Renee's Salad Dressing for the first time tonight and it was very good. Overall our meal was about 4 carbs which was perfect!
