Today I got it right.
Even with my late night of cooking, I woke up refreshed and ready to take on the day. All day I felt like superwoman....now before you start thinking I need to take a dose of humility please reference the last three blog posts. I worked hard to get to today. I deserved it and I enjoyed it.
Day 14
Breakfast
Vanilla Bean n Banana Oatmeal. Of course! I loved it as always but was bummed that I forgot the nuts. You know how crazy I am about my nuts. I was thoroughly disappointed.
Lunch
I can't say enough about lunch. I cooked this one up last night. It looked yummy. It smelled yummy. It tasted amazing! I'm so glad I have even more leftovers of this soup waiting in my fridge. It's called Mexican Chicken Chowder and it's from a new cookbook by Danielle Walker called Against All Grain. I was so excited when this awesome little book showed up on my front doorstep. (Love you Amazon Prime) I just had to pull a recipe from it for this week's menu planning.
Snacks
I had a Granny Smith apple with almond butter. I wasn't even very hungry for it but figured I should try to stay out in front of my hunger today. Lesson learned. Note: hubby packed away some homemade crackers I made last night. I was so delighted when he called AND e-mailed to tell me how much he enjoyed them. Now that's a winner. Can't wait for my turn with those tomorrow.
Dinner
Another favorite...Shrimp Pad Thai (and chicken). I love this recipe because I can pull out my nifty little toy. It's a vegetable noodle maker and it works miracles on zucchinis. Imagine a pasta made out of zucchinis. What can be healthier than that? Even better, it's super easy to put together and turns out noodles in minutes. I realize I'm beginning to sound like an infomercial, but for just $29.95 +shipping and handling you can change your life. Just look at those babies steaming up a storm. And if that doesn't work for you I have another picture of the end product. And it was delish!
Another day down and getting in the groove.
