Just had these sandwiches for dinner – everyone in the family loved them.

You’ll need:
Turkey Breast Cutlets, 99% fat free, lean jennie-o
(fry for 2-3 minutes on each side)
Thomas whole wheat square bagel
tomato
lettuce
sandwich pickles
light reduced fat kraft cucumber ranch dressing
sargento reduced fat mexican cheese

Put it together:
Layer on the bagel (these bagels are really soft, and REALLY good.):
1- 2oz. breast cutlet
pinch of shredded cheese
1- 2oz. breast cutlet
pinch of shredded cheese
add pickles, tomato, lettuce as desired
top with ranch dressing

Served with a side of 1/2 cup of low fat 2% cottage cheese – here are the results for this meal

That was excellent – and I’m very full after one sandwhich and that small amount of cottage cheese. I’m even under my daily limits yet for every single category – and in just the last day or two, there’s a difference in my scale. I love when that happens! (Now why did I bail on myself again last June? D’oh.)
