I have been eating smaller than usual dinners recently. Perhaps it's because the weather has been cold, and I haven't had much chance to exercise. I don't want to turn into a bowling ball or Sponge Bob Square Pants.
I did something new recently and bought four very small steaks at Safeway. The total cost was only about $6.00. I've been cooking them up in the oven (one at a time) and serving them along with packaged mashed potatoes, also from Safeway (and quite good)!
Sometimes I have a salad on the side. Sometimes I don't. The result is protein-rich, and satisfying without being too filling. Have you tried new things for dinner recently?

@TheHorse Left over pizza is great for breakfast. My husband and son will heat it but I will eat it cold right out of the fridge. I like it cold as a leftover.

That sounds like a great dinner! It's so hot here-in the 90's or above so we have been eating lighter meals since our appetites are suffering.

@LovingMyBabies I like to mix it up once in awhile. But I have my "defaults."

We had something new last night. We bought Syrian takeout for the first time. I am not sure what the dish was called, but it consisted of chicken, rice and a salad. It was very delicous.

@TheHorse It was a bit of an experiment. We didn't know if we would like the food or not, but it was really good. I would like to visit the place again.

I had a huge salad, I need to drop 20 pounds, well 10 but I may as well go for the gold.
The problem with losing weight at my age is I will have more facial wrinkles, I always said," wanna look younger fatten up, it`ll fill up them wrinkles."

We are always trying new things. Some of them we actually like. I love mashed potatoes, real or from a box, but they are hard on my blood glucose. I would have microwaved a small whole potato, if I was being good.
