Parties, Food, Parties, and More Food













When will the temptations ever end? Oh right, NEVER!!!

Graduation parties, birthday parties and year-end parties. To the left of you is a large bowl of peanut butter M&Ms (my favorite), and in front of you are bowls of chips, pretzels, dips and more candy. Then to your right is a full spread of meats, cheeses, salads, little smokies and meatballs, and then somewhere you can smell the dessert (cakes, cookies and brownies) waiting to be served.

Could this be heaven, we are surrounded by great friends? For those of us that have no self-control when it come to food and are trying to change our habits, this is a nightmare.

With that said, Jay and I will be eating before we come to all the parties during the next couple of weeks and we will be making sure that we have plenty of gum in our pockets. Also, if it is your party that we are coming to, please do not be offend if we do not eat the food, I am sure it is wonderful!!!

above is a picture of the Warrington’s new favorite dinner. Whole-wheat, turkey breast, spinach tacos. Here is the recipe and nutritional information.

Serves 4 Tacos (2 Tacos Each)

* 8 oz. cooked Jenny-O’s Ground Turkey Breast (2oz each taco)
Add no more then 2 tablespoons of taco seasoning when cooking
* 4 Whole-Wheat Medium Tortillas (we use the 96% fat free)
* 2 oz. spinach leaves ( ½ oz. each taco)
* 1 small tomato cut into small pieces ( ¼ for each taco)
* ½ cup red onion cut into small pieces (1/8 cup for each taco)
* 4 tablespoons of salsa (1 tablespoon for each taco)
(Jay likes to use shrimp instead of turkey.)
