Spinach and Turkey Enchiladas

by Mary

Ate cereal… Total… with some overly ripe banana action in there.

Cereal w/ Banana, Feb 20

For lunch I had a half pita with mayo, turkey, cheese, and mixed salad greens. Also had another yogurt. My last one. *tear* I’m going to have to buy more.

Doesn’t that look delicious? Yum.

After dinner I ate some smores with milk.

I ate three.  Which was one too many.  Oh well.  Live and learn.  At least it was yummy chocolate.

Those enchiladas looks tasty. Once I’m recovered from this stomach flu I’ll be cooking up a batch (but with 4% extra lean beef). God, I miss ground turkey!
