Well I got my voice back, family wonders if that's a good thing or not! But I just haven't felt up to par today. It seems since I went through the Cancer Trial I'll have a day or two of feeling like this every few months. I just feel really run down and no energy but it only lasts a day or so. Thank God for that Cancer Trial though, I was Stage 4 Melanoma at one point. So things could have a lot worse. Really didn't feel like cooking and not all that hungry so I prepared Whole Grain Breaded Chicken Strips w/ Long Grain and Wild Rice.
I used Perdue Whole Grain Breaded Chicken Breast Strips. Since using these a while back I now keep a package or two of these in the freezer. Their great for Lunch or Dinner and a breeze to fix and delicious. They come breaded and you just bake them for 12 minutes, flipping them over after 6 minutes and their done. Good for salads, sandwiches or just by their self. To go with the Chicken I microwaved a bag of Uncle Ben's Ready Rice Long Grain & Wild. I guess my favorite among the Uncle Ben's Ready Rices. Another tasty and easy to fix item, just microwave for 90 seconds and it's ready. A very easy meal to prepare but quite good! It's not bad being a slug every now and then! For dessert later a Healthy Choice Chocolate Swirl Frozen Yogurt.
