“Dinner was chicken breast tomato salad and gnocchi with some artichoke hearts. Since I had some accountability I put a little less oil on the tomato salad and was mindful of portions for gnocchi. I definitely have been having larger servings of gnocchi recently and it was nice to scale back while still enjoying everything I made for dinner. The meal was satisfying and filling.”
