I came in right at 5,200 calories. Not quite as junky as last week, but I still feel it was and impressive showing. Don't forget to check out the Twitter feed for tantalizing diet pics and ridiculous Saturday stuff @LonghornLukeTX. It's back to business tomorrow.

As promised, my German Potato Salad recipe (15-20 servings):

5# red potatoes, boiled, chilled, larger diced
1/2 bunch celery, small chop
1/2 red onion, small dice
1.5# bacon, cut to lardons, rendered crispy, fat reserved
1 bunch flat Italian parsley, chopped

Dressing:
4 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 cup sherry vinaigrette
1/2 cup reserved bacon fat, room temp, not solid OR hot
1 cup extra virgin olive oil
salt and pepper to taste



Put dressing ingredients in a mason jar and shake it until emulsified. Pour over the rest of the ingredients. Add salt and pepper to the whole salad to taste. Do yourself a favor and make it the day before the event. It's even better the next day!
