Made It Through Another Day

I don't have much to report tonight. I did ok today. Didn't exercise, but I counted my points and everything. I made a new recipe called Hawaiian Ham Steak for lunch and we went to my parents house for dinner. Luckily my mom is a Weight Watchers Lifetimer, so I don't have to worry too much about how many points she's going to feed me. She's like me and tries to keep the points on a dish below 6 when possible. After dinner, we played some cards (I got my butt beat this week. LOL) and we ate the chocolate cheesecake dream pie I made. Now that I'm back home I'm just trying to get some things caught up. I'll probably watch some tv and head to bed early (anything before 3 AM is usually early for me). Below are the new recipes I made...



Chocolate Cheesecake Dream Pie

1 Packet Dream Whip Whipped Topping Mix
1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
2 1/2 Cups Skim Milk, divided
1 (1 ounce) Package Chocolate Sugar Free Instant Pudding Mix
1 (1 ounce) Package Cheesecake Sugar Free Instant Pudding Mix
1 Reduced Fat Graham Cracker Crust, ready made
1 Piece (8 grams) of Dove Promise Dark Chocolate

Beat the whipped topping with 1/2 cup milk and vanilla on high speed for 4 minutes, or until it thickens and peaks form. Remove half of the mixture, place it into a small bowl and refrigerate for later. Add 1 cup of milk and the chocolate pudding mix to the remaining dream whip. Beat on low until mixed, then on high for 2 minutes. Pour into the pie crust; spread evenly. Refrigerate for 30 minutes. Remove the Dream Whip that you saved from the refrigerator and place it into a mixing bowl. Add 1 cup of milk and the cheesecake pudding mix. Beat on low until mixed, and then high for 2 minutes. Pour this mixture carefully on top of the chocolate mixture in the pie crust; spread evenly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours. Unwrap the piece of chocolate and place it on a small plate. Use a small sharp knife and shave away pieces of chocolate (Keep your fingers out of the way). Once finished shaving the entire piece of chocolate, sprinkle it evenly over the top of the pie. Cut into 8 pieces and serve.

Hawaiian Ham Steak

1 (1 Pound) 97% Fat Free Boneless Fully Cooked Ham Steak
1 (8 oz.) Can Dole Sliced Pineapple in juice
2 Tablespoons Light Brown Sugar

Open the can of pineapple and pour the juice into a skillet sized big enough to hold your ham steak with a little room around the edges. Mix the brown sugar into the juice, then place the ham on top. Use a fork and poke some holes into the ham to help keep it from raising in the middle. Place the pineapple slices on top of the ham. Cook on medium low heat, turning it twice, until the sauce becomes thick. Cut the steak into 4 equal pieces and place a pineapple slice on top of each piece. Serve warm.
