Recipe - Mustard & Dill Chicken Parcels

Had these for dinner and was yum!

Serves 4

  • 1/4 cup of Dijon mustard
  • 1/2 cup skim plain yoghurt
  • 1 clove garlic crushed
  • 1 tbsp fresh dill, chopped
  • 4 small skinless breast chicken, excess fat trimmed
  1. Preheat oven to 180 degrees
  2. Combine mustard, yoghurt, garlic and dill together
  3. Spread over chicken using a spoon
  4. Wrap each piece of chicken in foil
  5. Bake in oven for 20 mins or longer if pieces are thick.
Serve with vegies (I also served with sweet potato mashed with cream cheese)

Tip from my first try, use all the sauce on the chicken, I only coated it a bit but once it was cooked it had dried out a bit, so use it all to have lots of creamy sauce.

If you serve a small portion of chicken per person this meal is a 3.5 point value.

Also if you do not normally like yoghurt, don't worry there is no way you can tell it has yoghurt in it!

It is coming off!

Yay, I can see the weight is coming off, well I can't really but I can on the scales.  Down one kilo the other day, down another half today!  I am so excited!  My first goal is to reach double digits, 99kgs, another 6.2 to get to 99.9kg!

This morning I tried something yummy I saw on Jamie's Kitchen, make french bread with crumpets!
I had 2 this morning with a drizzle of maple syrup, it was like eating a thick pancake.  Total points 4.5.

Off to the gym shortly.

Back from the gym and I was starving!  Had some watermelon whilst I was toasting some burgen weight management bread, had WW Canola spread and some jam on it and a cup of green tea.
That did cost me 4.5 points but I think I will still get thru the day without going over or in to any of my saved points.

Tiredness hit me at about 1pm and I had to lie down!  Slept on and off for 2 hrs on the couch!

The pain in my hip and leg from my injury last year is really playing up when I sleep, drives me mad as at times it keeps me awake.  Was quite painful today after my nap on the couch.

Had a plum mid afternoon. Just a small one so only 0-1/2 a point.

Just deciding what to do for dinner, the choices on WW Online are mouthwatering!
