...the most unhealthy thing about this chicken is the tsp of EVOO that I used.

There is nothing unhealthy about olive oil... it has a high content of monounsaturated fatty acids and antioxidative substances which offer protection against heart disease by controlling LDL (bad) cholesterol levels while raising HDL (good) cholesterol levels, its protective function in the stomach has a beneficial effect on ulcers and gastritis, it activates the secretion of bile and pancreatic hormones much more naturally than prescribed drugs lowering the incidence of gallstone formation and studies have shown tha it also lowers the risk of colon cancer.

Arguing with Christians is like playing chess with a pigeon.  No matter how good I am at chess, the pigeon is just going to knock over the pieces, shit on the board and strut around like it's victorious.

The truth is slow, but relentless. Over time it becomes irresistible.

This might sound dumb but I usually take a tablespoon a couple of times a month and drink warm liquid, should be water but I drink coffee, before I eat breakfast.  Should do it before I go to bed but since I have a bad habit of snacking at night my stomach usually couldn't be considered empty... :rolleyes:

Couldn't tell you.  I was simply trying to dispel the myth that olive oil is bad for you.

I actually used a poor choice of words. I use EVOO whenever possible because it is good for us, but I steam or grill a lot of things to avoid using any oil. So I kind of have an "anti-oil" attitude, but recognize there are good ones and bad ones.

An Omaha Steaks burger, rotini, and marinara with a glass of milk. 

I'm back down to the 8lbs I lost and regained over Christmas.  Now if I could just break into the next set of 10!!

It was a house warming or birthday gift.  They have just been sitting in there because it is too cold (for me) to grill.  I used the Forman.  It was a terrible thing to do to such a good burger, but it was still tasty!  :biggrin:

Although I can't turn down Omaha Steaks, I prefer this place.

It's a bit pricey, but everything melts in your mouth.  :yes:

I order from them quite often too.
