Decided to go to BJ's tonight with the family (well, I should also add we ate lunch at McDonald's but that is hardly worth its own entry, right?). We had a ton of errands to run and got some AWESOME deals on some gear and some shoes, so in the end it was worth it. I finally decided that going to BJ's was the best choice because they have their super awesome chardonnay chicken pasta which should really be called heart-attack-on-a-plate based on the fat and calorie content. I think they took the world's healthiest ingredients, including grilled shrimp, and added in about a pound of butter, 2 cups of heavy whipping cream, and straight bacon fat. Anyway, that type of deliciousness can be rationalized when I split it with the shrimp, bacon, and pasta loving FIT right? Wrong. They don't have it on the menu anymore. Devastation, except now I'll just find a blog that has the recipe (or something close to it), Pin it on Pinterest, and then make it myself (hopefully in a healthier version?).
So instead FIT and I split cajun shrimp pasta, which we had them do grilled shrimp rather than blackened. The end result is a "meh". The Critic was super happy with his dinner (some type of deep dish pizza with meat and mushrooms... the guy was in heaven!). I would probably have been happier if I had a diet coke to sip on. Sad day for the Coach Foodie in this house. Oh well!
