My breakfast pictures (a yummy yogurt mess) were awfully dark, and ugly. I forgot my camera at school so my lunch went unphotographed (cottage cheese, black beans, avocado…fantastic). Blogger fail.
What I can show you is my unbelievably good dinner.
Chicken: marinated in balsamic vinegar and spicy mustard. Cooked in a skillet.
Mashed potatoes cauliflower: the best, creamiest, most delicious thing ever.
Meeker even says they taste exactly like mashed ‘taters…and he is a true meat and potatoes guy. That’s a true testament.
To make them…
- Cook onions and cauliflower in a pan on the stove with the lid on
- Put the whole mess in the food processor and blend for a while
- Add milk, butter and salt
Heaven.
And now, I am eating these:
And watching this:
I’m going to go ahead and ignore the irony of eating cookies while watching a weight loss show, and just enjoy the rest of my night while keeping my fingers crossed for a snow day tomorrow. (We are supposed to get up to 18 inches!!)
Enjoy your cookies and your evening! Let it snow…..
I think the predicted snow fall for Hawaii this winter is…zero inches. I did hear the Big Island gets a little snow in the mountains though. Let it snow!
I’m man enough to admit that biggest loser chokes me up on a regular basis. Now don’t tell anyone.
18 inches of snow! Holy moley! haha I totally love the irony of you eating cookies while watching the biggest loser
If it makes you feel any better, I always eat ice cream when I watch top model!
The pic of your meal looks great…when I first looked at it I thought it was a bowl of plain yogurt with a cinnamon bun on top! Ha! Was I wrong or what?!
I am starting to feel like you’re my long long food twin haha I routinely watch weight loss/health shows w chocolate or a big package of cookies next to me…good thing the people working out on the show can’t see us from the other side of the tv, eh? Oh, and I have been dying to try mashed cauliflower!
I agree with the person above too- I also thought your chick and cauliflower was a cinnamon bun and yogurt at first glance haha. Guess not!

ummm i am pretty sure everytime i watch the biggest loser, i am in fact eating dessert and NOT working out
18 inches?! That’s crazy and really exciting. I am hoping you got the day and are sleeping in
BTW I too have washed the iPod (and numerous pairs of headphones) I wonder who is to blame here. Me for not checking pockets or him for not emptying, I guess both. Biggest loser Imis on my agenda for the afternoon. Also thanks for sharing your cauliflower technique, I have always wanted to give those a shot and now I definitely will!
Great idea for the cauliflower. My hubby is also Mr. meat and potatoes. Luckily he also loves cauliflower so I might have to try that soon.
I love watching weight loss shows while stuffing my face. I’m going to hell.
Oh the snow…..I have no words. I’m still shocked I made it to work this morning….
Last night i was eating a big bag of popcorn while watching biggest loser, so dont worry your not alone! haha.
So i’m so totally intrigued about these cauli mashed “taters” and i need to try. Do i just steam them and then mash?? so confused but so anxious! if they taste just like regular mashed taters, then sign me up!

I’m glad I’m not the only one who eats dessert while watching TBL!
Those cookies look so delicious!!
