Sunny at last!

The day started off crazy windy, rainy & just icky but it seemed to have made a turn for the better sometime during my nap! Ha!

Today's accomplishments are short list. I just didnt feel like doing much but I did get cardio in, made a trip to the spa (Planet Beach) for hydration & tanning, tossed in a load of laundry (workout clothes) & then napped after munching like a nut.

I went WAY too long without eating today then when I finally did eat, I could not get full. I HATE that feeling & while I acknowledge getting full isnt the reason to keep eating but being satisfied is so I ate until I felt that way.

I have dinner in the oven & while it started out to be enchiladas it turned into a casserole since the corn tortillas kept breaking (2 were harmed in the making of dinner.) Here's the short recipe that I nabbed from a friend.

Chicken Enchiladas

*Cook & shred desired amount of chicken (about a pound) then combine with either greek yogurt or light sour cream (about 3/4 cup.)
*Mix 2 cans of green chili enchilada sauce, can of cream of chicken soup (I get the Healthy Request) & a small can of roasted green chilis

Pour 1/3 of the sauce mixture into the bottom of a 13x9 pan & commence rolling!

The proper way is to roll a few spoons of chicken filling & place into a pan seam-side down, however, since that did work with the tortillas I had, I did the following.

(Still putting 1/3 mixture in the bottom of the pan)

Layer 6 tortillas, top with chicken mixture & cheese then top with more sauce. Top with more tortillas, chicken, sauce & cheese.

Bake until cheese melts (works for either method.)

Will give you the decision on how these turn out tomorrow!

Tonight after dinner, we are heading to Kevin's to watch a movie. We got Zach & Miri Make a Porno & hear it's pretty funny. A good story...we went to Blockbuster here in Valpo & couldnt find it so we asked. They only had 1 copy of the movie come in & it was stolen! lol We found it at the Movie Gallery though.

Not certain the plans for tomorrow. It's Mother's Day & I'm really having a tough week as a result. I miss my Mom so much that my heart hurts. I know it'll be okay but I dont think that I'm going to church in the morning. My Dad will probably not like that but I am not up for it really. Kevin said we'll spend the day doing something instead. Maybe I can drag him to the Indiana Dunes for some hiking!

Have a GREAT Saturday all!

And CONGRATS to my friend Marcia for running the Fifth Third Bank 25K today in Grand Rapids. Check her blog out...Mission Impossible (link to the right.)

Gotta run...a hungry man just walked in my door! :)
