BBQ Dinner: Grilled Veggies, Mac n Cheese & BBQ Chicken! |
Daily Tidbit: Family BBQ Time! This time of year it is so easy to just over indulge on a day like today (I was outside with 3 generations of my family most of the day playing games and chatting it up) - and I did! But I tried to load up on Veggies to keep me feeling full in the midst of all the Chips and I did remember to take the skin off my BBQ chicken in time to save some calories for a yummy dessert!
