Recipe I love

I've been obsessed with the website Skinny Taste. I started looking for recipes on there when I started Weight Watchers in 2009. I stopped doing WW when I lost all the weight I wanted but the food is always so yummy. :) I have been IN LOVE with this sandwich and salad I've been making lately that I found on the website. It's very simple to make and I made a few changes.

Prosciutto, Arugula and Balsamic Sandwich
Gina's Skinny Recipes

Servings: 1 • Serving Size: 1 sandwich • Old Points: 6 pts • Points+: 7 pts
Calories: 289.8 • Fat: 6.8 g • Carb: 40.8 g • Fiber: 1.7 g • Protein: 10.8 g

 

• 3 oz french bread or baguette
• 2/3 cup baby arugula
• .75 oz imported prosciutto (fat trimmed)
• 2 tsp balsamic vinegar
• 1 tsp extra virgin olive oil
• fresh cracked pepper

Whisk together balsamic and oil. Cut bread, top with arugula, prosciutto and top with balsamic, oil and fresh cracked pepper.

My changes: 

• Instead of using prosciutto I used 2 or 3 slices of ham. Prosciutto can be expensive. I tried it last week with it and decided this week to just use ham. It's still delicious. :)
• Instead of using french bread I bought a whole grain baguette at Kroger and cut it up into four pieces. I froze the pieces I didn't use and warm them up in the microwave when it's time to eat.
• Instead of using arugula I use spring mix. Arugula is too spicy for me and it's not my favorite.

This was my lunch. I already took two bites out of my sandwich because I was STARVING. 

 I also made a yummy fruit salad. :) I bought a personal watermelon and it was so cute.

Strawberries & Bananers,
