It’s cool. I’m not panicking. I expected this, however not this soon. I have to assume my lack of progress this week is related to the massive amount of weight I moved during Covid. Based on consumption and movement, I should have lost 3.3 lbs. Instead, here I am, having only lost 1.4.
It’s February 2nd, 2024. Groundhog Day and the weekend is approaching. According to the resources in my garage freezer, I have two 8-ounce portions of utility chicken left which means, two things. First, I have to make more utility chicken. Woo. I hate making utility chicken. Particularly without the benefit of beer to aid me. Second, I finally have a way to address utility chicken on this Blog. I mean I mention it often enough.
This is a sturdy little recipe that produces two portions at 237 calories or one decent size portion at 475.
You can sub shrimp for the chicken, but the sausage is a must. If you can't find smoked chicken andouille, get a lower calorie turkey sausage and hack off a 130 calorie portion, usually like two ounces.
The add-in I got for my recipes, I think, will help with the videos as it is so powerful with so many features, it forces me to think in terms of documentation which, despite my professional history of late, seems to be lacking when it comes to food documentation. I’m still enjoying the process, though and the day-work is putting a fair amount of pressure on me to make this thing happen, particularly after last week’s Covid fiasco.
