I copied some recipes from a friend's WW cookbook recently. It was one of the books I don't have.
One of the recipes was for a coleslaw chicken salad with peppery dressing. It's shredded chicken over coleslaw mix with tomatoes, bacon and a dressing made with FF mayo, mustard, vinegar, caraway seeda and crushed peppercorns.
The first taste wasn't too bad. However, when I went to eat it for a whole meal tonight, it was just too overwhelming. The flavors in the dressing just didn't come together quite right for my taste.
Disappointing.
I'll be eating out tomorrow for lunch because I'll be in training all day and can't pack lunch. Not sure what I'll be eating yet. I just hope I can make good choices. I'll be with a group, so peer pressure will be upon me!
