Accountability

I’m looking at what I’ve eaten over the last few weeks and I just realized that I eat a lot of chicken salad! No one has even commented on that! I guess it is good though. I get vegetables and protein and I put low-fat or fat-free dressing on it. I like it but I hadn’t realized how often I was having it. Maybe I need to expand my choices a bit. I have some good cookbooks that I’ve been looking through & marked a bunch of recipes. The good thing about chicken salad is that I can have everything ready in the refrig and just dump it in a bowl so I don’t have to think about fixing stuff. I need more things like that to keep on hand. I’m open to suggestions if anyone has some! Better hurry before they get chickens up in the hills - then I’ll definitely never be able to walk!
