In this case, it's a good thing!
Here’s another reason I love working here so much. Coworkers who are willing to put themselves (and their weight) on the line in a fun and more than slightly competitive way. It’s our version of the biggest loser, and last year, it was an incredible success. So we’re about to start that this week, and this morning we had our “Last Breakfast” before the weigh-ins start. As you can imagine, it was a no holds barred food fest…and I helped. I’ve had this recipe for Bananas Foster French Toast for a while, so it’s my contribution to caloric nirvana! The beauty of it is that we can lighten it up, and I plan on doing just that for the next breakfast. I especially love this recipe because you can make it the day before, and let it soak up all the wonderful egg and banana mixture overnight, then bake in the morning.
Oh, and in case you’re wondering if I’m participating in our competition, I wasn’t able to get a partner here in time (my bad on forgetting the deadline) but I’m still working on that my myself. Between the usual holiday treats and life in general, I’m working on taking off about 10 pounds, and I’m already down two just stopping the eating at night which has always been my major downfall. What are you doing to stay healthy this year? If you have a favorite recipe that you’ve lightened up, please share it with us here in Kelly’s Kitchen. Send those along to me at ann.kelly@coxmg.com.
