Last night, I took a shot at this recipe from South Beach Century Club. It was absolutely amazing. I loved it! I think it’s my favorite thing I’ve made so far in the three months I’ve been on the diet (though Hubbo’s favorite is this one). I served it with some Spaghetti Squash in a Garlic Lemon Butter sauce for an Italian feast.
Just some tips regarding the recipe: one roasted pepper does not serve two. I used one and it only made one layer in the lasagna I made for Hubbo and myself, and I could definitely have used two or three layers of that stuff. Also, I added prosciutto like the recipe suggests at the bottom, but I found that the flavors of the pesto (I used a store-bought basil pesto that I had in the fridge instead of making my own sundried tomato pesto) and the peppers overwhelmed the prosciutto. Prosciutto’s kind of an expensive ingredient if you’re not even going to taste it, so I would recommend passing on that.
I did do mine on the grill as the recipe suggests, and it cooked absolutely perfectly. Next time, though, I think I might try baking them in individual dishes. It seems like it would be less messy, and also, the bottom layer of peppers probably won’t fall off that way. 
But like I said, the grill did cook it perfectly.
I hope you all don’t mind me posting more foodie stuff… It occurred to me recently that I have been blogging mostly about my feelings about the weight-loss and my mental state regarding it. I’m sure that is probably interesting enough to a lot of you, as dieting is as much a mental struggle as a physical one, but I think it’s also important to share with you guys what I’m actually eating. That does play a huge part in my weight loss, after all.
Anyway, this morning I am at 193.5 lbs. Not bad! We’re going to a wedding tonight though and I will be having cake for certain and alcohol if it is available, so we’ll see what tomorrow morning brings.
