Thanks for the core tips dazey! :) I know the key to this program is to plan (I've done it before, but it's been a long while!) I already have my menu made out for the week and am going to the store tonight. The only problem I have with core is I find I eat a lot of red meat on core. Like steak. I LURVE steak. I decided we are going to Logan's Friday night b/c they have Porterhouse steak and I love it. I will be bringing leftovers home that night for sure...then I can have a steak salad on Saturday for lunch. :) See already planning! I did read in my book that bean dip is core so I am happy about that.
Where do I find WW couscous? I've had couscous before, but it wasn't in the book as a core food (it was in a box). I may be going to several different stores tonight. Ugh...I hate that.
I am in Indiana, so yes the mid-west. I grew up in Southern Indiana but now live in Indianapolis (well a suburb). I didn't discover tater tot casserole until I moved up here. :)
I'm off to get some lunch. I'll BBL!!!
For whatever reason the font keeps getting messed up on here. Driving me nuts!!

Stealing that recipe, thank you very much :)
Yay! I'm finding all my wwatchen family! Seeing all your blogs, I feel like such a slacker. Wow, I've got to get to work!
Ditto - my kids would LOVE it! I'm going shopping tomorrow and buying the stuff for sure! Take Care!
I'm back! Thanks for your email...I grew up in Indy...moved in grade 5 and ended up going to Butler for college. We lived there for 3 years before we went to grad school.
ANYWAY...my mom-in-law makes Tator Tot Casserole very similar to this one. She adds in canned green beans...the french cut kind. Great way to add in a veggie...especially for kids! My hubby ALWAYS requests it!
