This is one of the those meals that I like to make in the summer.
It is technically a salad, but is so filling, and has no greens.
Can that really be called a Salad??
Basically it is a Dijon Vinaigrette, tossed with sliced boiled potatoes and sliced garlic sausage (think kielbasa).I also had fresh bread and Camembert.
I LOVE CHEESE.
The other part of this 3 week challenge, is food portion.
Try to imagine, cause I didn't actually take a picture, but 1 pound of Potatoes, and 6 oz of sausage. 5 tablespoons of olive oil, 2 more of dijon mustard, and 1 white wine vinegar. Fresh Tarragon, Parsley, Salt and Pepper to taste. Oh and you can't forget the white wine, just splash or 10 sprinkled all over, and a Shallot.
All of this makes 4 servings.
Do you have your visual??
Maybe I should portion off sizes from here on out, and show you exactly how big they are?
Well the meat would be 1.5 oz, (about half of what you should consume per day) no more than the size of your palm. This particular sausage, was 2oz is one serving, @ 90 calories, 45 sat fat.
The potatoes can be your whole fist, but for this meal it was approximately 266 calories, .4g saturated fat.
But that Vinaigrette.
How does that work out?
That would take more math than I really want to worry about right now.
Approximate calories 356-450.
That is if we didn't serve a large portion to ourselves, then we did good.
Well Papa did good.
While I have been writing this up, the kids strategically placed cookies in front of me.
There had been 18...
I am pretty sure little fingers have been over here snatching a few too.
