I hope you don't find this lovely T-Bone steak repulsive...but I've been sooo good on my Weight Watchers diet, except at the end of the week. Mostly vegetarian!
Still, all you have to do is to count up all your points, and see the result at the end of the week. I was under 3 points of my allowed points, even if I "fell off the WW diet wagon"...Grilled T-Bone Steak? no way! Yes way! You are allowed to have that...of course, not this entire huge steak...half of it will do!
Did I also forgot to mention...I lost 3 lbs in one week...yeayyy!!!
I have to be honest with you, the side dishes are not in the WeightWatchers cookbook! It's just a sweet potato "nuked" in the microwave, with a pat of butter, and steamed baby spinach!
I'm not ashamed to show off my George Foreman Grill (thrift find $6.99) brand new, with book and recipes, as well! Retail price? at least double, or triple!
Grilled T-Bone Steak
Weight Watchers New Complete Cookbook
4 teaspoon extra virgin olive oil
2 teaspoons finely chopped fresh rosemary
2 teaspoons finely chopped fresh sage
1 1/4 lb T-Bone steak, at least 1 1/2 inch thick
trimmed of all visible fat
1/2 teaspoon salt
Freshly ground pepper to taste
Spray the grill rack with nonstick spray. Preheat the grill.
In a small bowl, mix the oil, rosemary, and the sage. Rub the steak with the herb mixture; place on the grill rack. Grill 3 inches from the heat, turning once, 6 minutes on each side for rare. (In the George Foreman, you don't have to turn, it should be done within less than 10 minutes)...although, you can turn if the steak is a large piece!
Season with salt and pepper as soon as the steak is done. Transfer steak to a small cutting board. Let stand for about 5 minutes before slicing.
Points value-6
In the meantime...I got this surprising letter from the Fairy Hobmother...that I won! Just haven't picked out a fabulous gift, yet...from Amazon.com! Thank you'd Fairy Hobmother!
Be sure to mention "The Fairy Hobmother"...also, you could mention what kind of small appliance you would like to receive!

ReplyDeleteI've been off meat for some reason but the potato and spinach are my favsa for sure and my husband would make short work of that syaek I tell you that,
ReplyDeleteHi Elisabeth, I have a couple of small lean steaks in the fridge now, nothing wrong with treating yourself once in awhile. I love veggies too but could not live on them alone! Again, congrats on the weight loss and on your thrifty find, that grill is really going to come in handy on your healthy eating plan, don't like the word 'diet' lol!
ReplyDeleteElisabeth-Glad that you are getting good results on WW. Your steak looks delicious, as well as the veggies. I love sweet potatoes. Your George foreman Grill was a great find:)
ReplyDeleteMe repulsed by meat, lol! I can't believe how fast you are losing, I'm just trying to exercise more, but cutting back will hopefully help too. Great score on the grill. Maybe we can request the festival be moved to Jan and we can make a stop off at my house! Hope you are having a great week.

ReplyDeleteGratulálok a Hobmother-hez, és a díjhoz!!Biztosan nagy hasznát veszed majd a konyhába, csodálatos steak-et sütöttél vele.Én is szívesen megkóstoltam volna, egy finom salátával, a diétámba éppen belefér. Én ma pisztrángot sütöttem, és egy kis desszertet is engedélyeztem magamnak.:)
Oh wow! I can never say NO to a grilled T-Bone steak.. I love it when a good piece of meat is seasoned well, and cook to perfection. I have been reading about Fairy Hobmothe in a couple of food blogging sites. I must really go check it out. It would be nice if she rings over at my blog and grant my wishes..LOL.. just saying ;P. Huggsss..
ReplyDeleteWow, congratulations on the 3 pounds, fairy hobmother and the award...you are on a roll :) The steak looks wonderfully prepared :)
