20 rows
30 pushups
40 situps
50 squats
I did one set, then 20 rows and 30 pushups - and that was all i was capable of. We've had the flu around here, and on top of being sick, baby wants me all day long - which is very sweet - she's getting so big and runs around from friend to friend - but when she's sick, she's my little girl again...
Still, something is better than nothing!
And T made a delicious dinner -
For Christmas I received not one, not two, but THREE cookbooks!
This one was from my inlaws, called 500 Low-Carb Recipes by Dana Carpender
And tonight T made us Shrimp and Andouille Jambalaya (page292)
Shrimp and Andouille Jambalaya
If you can't find andouille, just substitute the lowest-carb smoked sausage you can find.
(ours was pretty spicy!)
12 ounces andouille sausage, sliced 1/2 inch thick
1/4 c. olive oil
1 1/3 c. chopped onions
2 cloves garlic, crushed
1 large gren pepper, diced
1 can ( 14 1/2 oz) diced tomatoes, including liquid
1 c. chicken broth
1 tsp dried thyme
6 c. cauliflower rice (i.e. shred a head of cabbage in your food processor)
2 c. shelled, deveined, medium sized shrimp
salt and pepper
tabasco
Brown the sausage in olive oil. When it's lightly golden, add onion, garlic and green pepper. Saute the veggies till the onion is translucent.
Add the tomatoes, chicken broth and thyme and bring to a simmer. Let it simmer uncovered about 20 minutes, to blend the flavours
Add the cauliflower rice and simmer another 15 min, until cauliflower starts to get tender.
Add the shrimp, and simmer another 5 minutes or so - just long enough to cook the shrimp (my husband also added in a can of oysters with the shrimp... yummy!)
Add salt, pepper, and tabasco to taste and serve. Our 9 year old had seconds!
