So last night I went for a run on the track at Fort Vancouver Highschool. I only ran for about 20 min becuase I was getting really tight and my knee (with the slight tear in my LCL) was starting to bother me. so I got about 4 activity points, was hoping for about 7 but I'll take what I can. After working out I went to Fred Meyers (grocery store) to pick up some stuff for the recipie I was going to try out.
WW whole cheat chili mac
Ingredients
| 12 oz uncooked lean ground beef (with 7% fat) |
| 1 medium onion(s), chopped |
| 14 1/2 oz canned stewed tomatoes, Mexican-style, undrained |
| 1 1/4 cup(s) canned tomato sauce |
| 2 Tbsp canned green chili peppers, diced, drained |
2 tsp chili powder | |
1 tsp ground cumin | |
| 1 cup(s) dry whole-wheat elbow macaroni |
| 15 oz canned kidney beans, rinsed and drained |
Instructions
- In a large skillet, cook beef and onion until meat is browned, about 10 minutes; drain off fat. Stir in undrained stewed tomatoes, tomato sauce, chili peppers, chili powder and cumin; bring to a boil.
- Stir in uncooked macaroni and kidney beans. Return to a boil, reduce heat, cover and simmer until macaroni is tender, about 15 minutes. Yields about 1 1/4 cups per serving.
I did mine with ground turkey. This was FABULOUS! and 1 serving is only 4 points!!
But after my run I realized it was a bad idea to go run at 8pm wearing a tank top and shorts while it had cooled and was breezy. I am all sniffly, and my throat hurts and my whole body aches. This is no fun :( I really want to workout today but I think that with the traveling and the wedding coming up this weekend I need to rest so that I am healthy. :(
I am planning on going to my "Latin heat" class at the gym tomorrow. it is LA fittness' version of Zumba.
Have a good Sunday night, y'all!
:( That sucks! I'm sorry. There is something about being sick in the summer that makes it worse than in the winter. No fun!!! Good job running though. I do my 2 mile run tomorrow at 5:00 a.m. Hopefully it will feel as it good the other day too. I was suppose to go on a walk tonight but I'm so tired that I just came and got in bed. I hope you get to feeling better.
