Week in Review (i.e. I didn't have time to blog so I'm doing it now)

Monday & Tuesday

I didn’t get out much these days.  The temperatures didn’t get above about 75 degrees either day.  I took a walk with my mom on Tuesday to get out of the house and to get some fresh air. 

Wacky Workout Wednesday

I took a walk with my mom  and found a cinder block in the water so I carried it a mile back down the beach.  I made Mr. Amazing go pick it up from the beach.  

My cinder block

For dinner I made a supersized jalepeno popper using a large spicy pepper.  They turned out well.  My only complaint was that the pepper wasn’t spicy enough.  I am now on a mission to find the perfect pepper for a large spicy pepper popper.  I adapted the recipe from Cook This NotThat.  

Pepper Poppers

1 cup cremini or button mushrooms, diced
1/2 onion, minced
1/2 cup shredded fat free cheddar cheese
8 oz fat free cream cheese

Salt and black pepper to taste
2 green chile peppers (the larger ones)

How to Make It:
*Preheat the oven to 400F.

*Heat skillet over medium-high heat.  Put the mushrooms and onions in and cook about 5 minutes until the mushrooms are brown and the onions are clear.

 *Combine the cream cheese, cheese onion, mushrooms, salt and pepper in a medium bowl

*Cut the peppers in half

*Stuff each pepper with a quarter of the mixture.  Place the peppers on a baking pan.  Bake for approximately 15-20 minutes.

Tomorrow's weigh in day!  Let's keep our fingers crossed!!!
