So last night's dinner was one of my favorite Trader Joe's items: Orange Chicken. I served it with their microwave brown rice and broccoli. I put a bunch of Sriacha sauce on the rice. You know I like it spicy! :)

I had a rude awakening though....my hubby commented he couldn't believe that all that food was the point value I have been stating all this time. So I check out the package again and he was right. :( The sauce wasn't included in the nutritional info and I was estimating the serving size wrong. I was seriously bummed out. I thought I was going to have all these points left over for granola. Nope. Instead I went with a one point Weight Watcher chocolate cake (one of the new things I bought yesterday):

It was pretty decent for one point. But I was still bummed out.
This morning's breakfast was Fage yogurt with Fiber One cereal and strawberries, blackberries and raspberries:

I took the kids to school and went to Great News for a cooking class. Today's class was called Pacific Rim Favorites.
First up was the Crab Spring Roll with Pickled Ginger Sauce:

It was good!! What's not to like about a spring roll though?
The next one I thought I wouldn't like because of the fruit (you know I don't like fruit with my food). It was entitled Spicy Strawberry, Napa Cabbage and Spinach Slaw with Crunchy Almonds and Ginger Sesame Dressing:
![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhgVN7lGhjjhYf8_BgGJ_aITfg1sPPdWJFf9Rv0NQndQO_LILgu4qVosSsYRdjIrQciV9f9CY6uGC_UK3Qwjs6Zy_Cw52pimXIkdWS5rvMiaNqyn7uz8brebXC0NGS53Z2F4iOiz57sJVs/s400/March+2010+012.jpg)
I liked it! I didn't mind the strawberries in it! I loved the crunchy almonds in it.
Next up was Pan-Roasted Asian Rubbed Salmon with Asparagus and Ginger Beurre Blanc:

This was really good! The salmon had a sweet rub on it that caramelized.
The next one was my favorite: Spicy Sesame Lime Marinated Top Sirloin with Ginger Cilantro Noodles:
![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgM5UYVYlbnMap59k_CPBbFRDO6rp8dG3CsOZG7GmSHsNzPljcEEnI3dJJVGMaCpatYxvplw00KjjrsnKEiYRV2AfKTgnoNda8lyTI8nD_anIfnHiDUngo7chd3cu-nmcfXt04lNurWIyE/s400/March+2010+014.jpg)
This might well be the best marinated steak I've ever had. And the noodles were so good. ahhh.
Dessert was Coconut Shortcakes with Tropical Fruit and Cream:

Mmmmm......yummy little sammies of fruit and whipped cream...what's not to like? Great class today as usual!

I had to run over to Nordstrom to buy a gift, then I came home and chilled for a bit before it was time to head over to Lisa's for P90x. Today's video was Kenpo. Not too much to report there...it's not a super hard video.
Now it's time to get dinner ready and all that good stuff. See ya!
I've never heard of kenpo? I'll have to look it up!
ReplyDeleteThat sucks - I HATE when I think I have something down then i'm like oh.... no... it's way more calories than I thought. Grrr.
