Grilled WW T-Bone Steak...Fairy Hobmother, and Award!

I hope you don't find this lovely T-Bone steak repulsive...but I've been sooo good on my Weight Watchers diet, except at the end of the week. Mostly vegetarian!
Still, all you have to do is to count up all your points, and see the result at the end of the week. I was under 3 points of my allowed points, even if I "fell off the WW diet wagon"...Grilled T-Bone Steak? no way! Yes way! You are allowed to have that...of course, not this entire huge steak...half of it will do!
Did I also forgot to mention...I lost 3 lbs in one week...yeayyy!!!
I have to be honest with you, the side dishes are not in the WeightWatchers cookbook! It's just a sweet potato "nuked" in the microwave, with a pat of butter, and steamed baby spinach!
I'm not ashamed to show off my George Foreman Grill (thrift find $6.99) brand new, with book and recipes, as well! Retail price? at least double, or triple!

Grilled T-Bone Steak
Weight Watchers New Complete Cookbook

4 teaspoon extra virgin olive oil
2 teaspoons finely chopped fresh rosemary
2 teaspoons finely chopped fresh sage
1 1/4 lb T-Bone steak, at least  1 1/2 inch thick
trimmed of all visible fat
1/2 teaspoon salt
Freshly ground pepper to taste

Spray the grill rack with nonstick spray. Preheat the grill.
In  a small bowl, mix the oil, rosemary, and the sage. Rub the steak with the herb mixture; place on the grill rack. Grill 3 inches from the heat, turning once, 6 minutes on each side for rare. (In the George Foreman, you don't have to turn, it should be done within less than 10 minutes)...although, you can turn if the steak is a large piece!

Season with salt and pepper as soon as the steak is done. Transfer steak to a small cutting board. Let stand for about 5 minutes before slicing.
Points value-6
In the meantime...I got this surprising letter from the Fairy Hobmother...that I won! Just haven't picked out a fabulous gift, yet...from Amazon.com! Thank you'd Fairy Hobmother!

Be sure to mention "The Fairy Hobmother"...also, you could mention what kind of small appliance you would like to receive!


Good morning Elisabeth!

Greetings, I am the Fairy Hobmother from Appliances Online from the UK! My mission is to bring joy and happiness to the world’s bloggers by providing treats for great, hard work in the blogosphere!

Whilst browsing the web this morning I stumbled across your comment on this blog post so I decided to have a look at your own blog, which I really enjoyed looking through. As I have a sweet tooth myself, I particularly enjoyed your Snowflake Muffins...and Neighborhood Christmas Lights post – those cakes look delicious! I know from your comment on the above post that you did not request anything specific. However, after seeing all the hard work that you have done on your blog I have decided to offer you a small gift – a $30 Amazon gift card. I can send this straight to your email address so you can start spending it immediately J (on whatever you wish!)

If you would like to accept this gift then the only thing that the Fairy Hobmother requests in return is that you give us a brief mention in your blog (with this link - http://www.appliances online.co.uk/looking-for/Best-Washing-Machine) (“Best Washing Machine”) . It can either be a full post or simply a brief mention at the bottom of one of your regular pieces. As an added bonus, any of your readers that leave a comment on that post and make a wish, could be visited by me!



...still have to pass forward a fabulous Inspirational Blog award from my friend....Amelia @ Amelia's De-ssert
Thank you, Amelia...I'm truly honored!
