Chocolate chip cookie dough fudge. Yeah, yeah. I know that doesn't sound like it goes with the all the diet talk from yesterday.
That would be correct, oh wise one. But in my defense I did use fat free sweetened condensed milk. You couldn't even tell. And the sweetened condensed milk was still good enough to eat with a spoon.
Which I did.
But only 3 spoonfuls.
Then I covered it and put the rest in the fridge for later HAHAHA
And I only ate one piece of fudge. It hit the spot. I'll send some home with Lauren for her and Graem to enjoy.
So, to even out the fudge, I made skinny chimichangas and steamed broccoli. It was tasty. Lauren and I weren't too sure about the chimichangas and how only 1/2 pound ground meat would make dinner, but it easily made 4 chimichangas. I was surprised. And now I have lunch for tomorrow :)
