	Menu Plan Monday 2104 ~ Week of July 28th by Alison Last week, I didn't pay much mind to my menu plan or my diet and a 1.4 lb weight gain was the result.

	Simply Filling Tuna Vegetable Pasta Salad by Alison Lately, I've really been craving picnic foods. Potato salad, pasta salad, burgers, dogs! I love 'em all! Since we aren't having or attending a picnic anytime soon, I figured I'd make myself a quick pasta salad for lunch.I had a different idea in mind, but came up with this once I started throwing stuff into the bowl.

	Chicken Taco Filling by Alison One of my favorite types of foods to eat while dieting is Mexican. Heck, it's a favorite even when I'm not dieting! The bold flavors let me think I'm eating something bad, but if I use lean meats and lay off or cut back on the cheese and sour cream (not difficult for me), it can really be quite healthy. Especially if I use a…	0 votes 521 views
	Double Chocolate Cannoli Skinny Dip by Alison When I was a teen, I loved going to Reading Terminal Market with my Mom. We'd load up on fresh meats and produce, then we'd have lunch. We'd always grab dessert before going home, too! My favorite were the chocolate cannoli from one of the bakery counters! YUM!Only once since those trips to the market was I able to find another…	0 votes 541 views
	Enchilada Casserole with Black Beans and Quinoa by Alison Since I've begun eating healthier, I've been really trying to add new foods to the mix. One reason is that I'd like to get over my fear of trying new foods. I always worry I'm not going to like something and either waste the money spent on it or be forced to eat whatever it is I didn't like.A couple of weeks ago, I purchased my…	0 votes 507 views
	Sausage & Peppers over Pasta by Alison What I like most about the Weight Watchers Simply Filling program is that I don't have to weigh and measure or track points for foods that are on the Power Foods List. When I cook meals that contain items that have a PointsPlus value, I usually make a smaller portion for myself in a separate pan while making Joe a larger portion in…	0 votes 336 views
