We are at the end of a long holiday weekend and feeling very fulfilled and VERY, VERY filled.
It could be all of the cookies we ate. Or, it could be all of the appetizers. Maybe it was the dish of holiday M&M's we kept going back to. Of course, it could be all of the above and more that is making us feel super stuffed and a little guilty about over-indulging.
Our plan was to start an exercise program together on December 26th, but the Little One is battling a bad cold and none of us have had much shut-eye in a few days. The blizzard that hit New England yesterday also has us spending quite a bit of bonding time with our snow shovel. Needless to say, we have good excuses to put off the extra sit-ups for a few more days.
In the mean time we are trying our best to put some healthier stuff in our bodies. A favorite recipe comes from the cook book, Hungry Girl, a gift from my sister-in-law Megan. After you try these butternut squash fries you will have a hard time justifying any regular, full-fat fries ever again.
As a bonus I've also added a link to new versions of the recipe. Enjoy and let us know what you think about them.

I got that recipe at a Weight Watchers meeting -- it is astoundingly good.
