Cottage cheese salad with cucumbers and strawberries

During the week, I am on a diet.  No carbs and no sweets.  Sometimes I succeed, other times I cheat.  I am on a mission though to stay dedicated!  That is why, when I am cooking for myself I go to Weight Watchers for guidance.  This week, I found a page dedicated to strawberries, which I love and are in season.

I made the salad with strawberries, cucumber, pineapple cottage cheese (instead of plain), lettuce, and lemon juice.  I added some cured meat on the side.  I didn't put the lemon rind or spring onions on because I am not a huge fan of either.

I was skeptical because it sounded too healthy and usually healthy sounding food tastes bad.  I was wrong.  It was delicious!  

Last Night's Dinner: Lettuce Wraps

I forget where I found this recipe. I made this about a month ago because I am trying to not eat carbs during the week. It consists of beef, peanuts, chili paste, rice vinegar, peppers, onions, mushrooms, water chestnuts and is basically one big spicy delicious stir fry. Then you spoon it into lettuce leaves (romaine or iceberg work best). Last night Femi made it for us. His wasn't as spicy as mine was. It was sooo good! I highly recommend this dish for a healthy dinner (or lunch).
