Grand Slam, Diet Style

My parents and youngest nephew are in town for a visit and, according to my children, no visit from the grandparents is complete without a trip to Denny's for breakfast (the childrens' breakfast consisting of a chocolate shake but, that is a story for another day) so; off to Denny's we went.

It is possible to enjoy a good breakfast at Denny's while on a diet, color me surprised. One whole wheat pancake, scrambled egg whites, two slices of turkey bacon and a side of seasonal fruit clocked in at seven points and three tablespoons of syrup added an additional four points for a total of eleven points which is more than I would generally eat at breakfast but, dining with company is a special treat and totally worth the extra points.

The best part of the whole thing is that I was able to look a menu over and to make good choices despite the plethora of really crappy foods that predominated it. Once again, we see progress.
