catch up before THE trip

This is gonna be a scattered, hurried post because I procrastinated doing these last recipes & I'm actually supposed to be packing & getting ready for the big Ireland trip right now.

• This Sweet Garlic chicken is from a fun site where you can click on what you actually have in your fridge/cabinets & it gives you as many options for recipes as it can think of that use only those ingredients. It was tasty but coulda used more garlic, as I used the powdered stuff. 

• These were TASTY! Zucchini-Cheese stuffed chicken that was only 4 pts per chicken? YES PLEASE! 

this was just a simple omelette with shreds of bacon & cheese in it. but mom said it was pretty so i'm putting it on here

• Another thing did recently was to grill (mom did the actual grilling) some tasty weight watcher hamburgers (very low in pts!) & Key West Chicken w/c was also from that My Fridge site (this site does not calculate pts btw; but i did calculate it to be around 8 pts/chicken). Both were very tasty, I have pics of neight & can't remember if there was anything different to tell you about how I followed the recipes. We had The chicken on the first night & saved the hamburgers for the next day. 
• had Zucchini tots with the burgers- good but i didn't get them quite crispy enough, except for 1 or 2. I nixed the onion (oh i may have put in a dash of powder, i don't remember) cause i didn't really want that flavor
• Today I made chicken parm in the crockpot because i didn't want to heat up the kitchen w/a hot oven on this summer day. I cooked some spaghetti noodles to go with it as well, like they serve it in restaurants. It tasted pretty good but I like chicken parm because it's crispy & this didn't have any crunch to it at all. It calls for you to brown the bread crumbs ahead of time for this reason, but i burnt most of them & ended up having to just use plain breadcrumbs. & then the whole flour in the bag thing didn't work for me- all ended up in gloopy clumps, not covering all of the chicken breasts. Then the actual bread-crumbing part didn't work too well for me either-- all in all i made quite a mess & would have rather had it baked. But if you're craving chicken parm for cheaper than you can get it at Olive Garden or the like & you work all day or something- this is a decent option. For about 7 pts. 

ok sorry this was a chaotic, not that interesting post. hope it gave you some PINspiring ideas for food still though. 

See yall on here again in 2.5 weeks or so, after I'm a more experience world traveler!!
